Method for Predicting the Liquid-Sloshing Characteristics of a Microsatellite Propulsion System

International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2019
In this study, a method for establishing a prediction model for the liquid-sloshing characteristics of microsatellite propulsion systems is proposed. The ideal states of the liquid-sloshing characteristics are considered for the following three models ...

Serum Myonectin Levels Are Positively Associated With Physical Function and Lower Frailty‐Related Limitation in Maintenance Hemodialysis Patients: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients frequently suffer from frailty, characterized by reduced physical function and poor prognosis. Myokines, such as myonectin, secreted by muscle, are emerging regulators of systemic health. This study investigated the relationship between serum myonectin, adipokines (adiponectin, omentin), and ...

Horizontal Nystagmus as a Coupled-Integrator Network Phenotype: A Clinical–Conceptual Framework Linking Gaze Holding, Velocity Storage, and Nodulus–Uvula Supervision

Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, Hearing and Balance Medicine
Horizontal nystagmus is still commonly interpreted at the bedside through a pragmatic peripheral-versus-central dichotomy. Although this heuristic is often clinically useful, it may be misleading because distributed brainstem–cerebellar disorders can ...

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Sperm morphology, ultrastructure, and motility in pikeperch Sander lucioperca (Percidae, Teleostei) associated with various activation media

Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2014
Spermatozoa morphology, ultrastructure, and spermatozoa motility traits were studied in pikeperch (Sander lucioperca) after activation in various media (AM 1 - 45mM NaCl, 5mM KCl, 20mM Tris, pH 8.5; AM 2 - 100mM sucrose, 20mM Tris, pH 8.5; AM 3 - 100mM ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Dynamic Mechanical Property Experiment of Viscous Material for Viscous Damping Wall

Frontiers in Materials, 2019
Viscous damping wall (VDW) is an effective velocity-dependent damper, which can dissipate earthquake energy by shear strain of viscous material. The damping force equation of VDW can only be obtained from regression of VDW dynamic test results, as ...
