Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

Wave-Induced Seabed Response around a Dumbbell Cofferdam in Non-Homogeneous Anisotropic Seabed
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 Cofferdams are frequently used to assist in the construction of offshore structures that are built on a natural non-homogeneous anisotropic seabed. In this study, a three-dimensional (3D) integrated numerical model consisting of a wave submodel and ...

Anorectal Dysfunction in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Phenotypes and Functional Patterns
Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Objective The aim of this study was to characterize specific physiologic defects in anorectal dysfunction in systemic sclerosis (SSc) using anorectal manometry (ARM), evaluate associations with gastrointestinal (GI) and extraintestinal clinical phenotypes, and explore potential serologic markers for risk stratification.

Wave Forcing of Beach Groundwater
Coastal Engineering 1980, 1980 A field project was conducted to measure swash and surf characteristics and related processes on a beach with a high tide range and very low slope. Variables measured were beach waterlevels in the surf and swash zones, beach groundwater levels, and on-offshore and alongshore currents.
