Wear behaviour of NiTi shape memory alloys by Yan, Lina

“…When tested above the Af, the coefficient of friction decreased more significantly under higher loads. Different types of wear behaviour originated from different deformation mechanisms involved in the wear process, particularly, the martensite detwinning process, the stress-induced phase transformation process, and the superimposed plastic deformation. …”

荀子批判公孙龙“白马非马”的正当性 ：再探荀子与公孙龙“实”的概念 = The legitimacy of Xunzi’s criticism on Gongsun Long’s idea of “White horse is not a horse” : a revised study on Shi in Xunzi and Gongsun Long... by 赖珉利 Lai, Min Lee

“…Gongsun Long's "shi" special emphasis lies in the absolute relationship with the name, while Xunzi's "shi" is more diverse and dynamic. This is because Xunzi's "shi" has been put into a larger context for consideration, and there is a standard naming behind these considerations. …”

Injectable and biomimetic poly (ethylene glycol) hydrogel systems for in situ therapeutic cell delivery by Cao, Ye

“…This work showed that covalently conjugating elastin to gelatin-PEG hydrogel is more effective in guiding fibroblast behavior by promoting the spreading and proliferation of NHDFs and finally to secret their-own ECM protein in 3-D. …”

Multiple signatures of a disease in potential biomarker space : getting the signatures consensus and identification of novel biomarkers by Ow, Ghim Siong, Kuznetsov, Vladimir Andreevich

“…Our results indicate that while independently there is little overlap between our tGSS with individual rGSSs, comparison of the EFD with BFD suggests that beyond a confidence threshold, tested gIDs become more common in rGSSs than expected. This validates the use of our tGSS as individual or combined prognostic factors. …”

Removal of ciprofloxacin by anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) and post-treatment of AnMBR effluent by Mai, Do Thi

“…In addition, VFA and SMP accumulation, biomass reduction, and an increase in pH were also observed. More Nitrogen containing compounds (N-compounds) and esters were found under CIP exposure, and p-cresol dominated the SMPs present when high CIP concentrations were added, with p-cresol concentrations as high as 49 µg/L. …”

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors and major adverse cardiovascular outcomes: a SMART-C collaborative meta-analysis by Patel, SM, Kang, YM, Im, K, Neuen, BL, Anker, SD, Bhatt, DL, Butler, J, Cherney, DZI, Claggett, BL, Fletcher, RA, Herrington, WG, Inzucchi, SE, Jardine, MJ, Mahaffey, KW, McGuire, DK, McMurray, JJV, Neal, B, Packer, M, Perkovic, V, Solomon, SD, Staplin, N, Vaduganathan, M, Wanner, C, Wheeler, DC, Zannad, F, Zhao, Y, Heerspink, HJL, Sabatine, MS, Wiviott, SD

“…The benefit for cardiovascular death was driven primarily by reductions in HF death and sudden cardiac death (HR, 0.68 [95% CI, 0.46&ndash;1.02] and HR, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.78&ndash;0.95], respectively) and was generally consistent across subgroups, with the possible exception of being more apparent in those with albuminuria (<em>P</em>_interaction=0.02).…”

Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in children and adolescents by Ratcliffe, H

“…</p> <br> <p>In serum, anti-nucleocapsid antibodies fell below the threshold of positivity more quickly than anti-spike protein receptor binding domain antibodies, suggesting community-based prevalence studies relying on these measures of infection may underestimate the burden of disease. …”

Targeting TFEB and TFE3 in iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons to correct autophagic/lysosomal deficits in Parkinson's disease by McGuinness, W

“…</p> <p>Examination of TFE3 activation in iPSC-DaNs demonstrated a major role for upregulating lysosomal biogenesis and function, more so than TFEB activation. Further, TFE3 overexpression upregulated glucocerebrosidase activity and endolysosomal function in patient-derived iPSC-DaNs that displayed perturbation in these functions. …”
