Criteria for Crack Formation and Air Invasion in Drying Colloidal Suspensions by Lilin, Paul, Bischofberger, Irmgard

“…We show that the pressure inside the deposit controls both the onset of crack formation and the onset of air invasion. Two distinct regimes of air invasion occur, which we can account for using the same model that further provides a quantitative criterion for the crossover between the two regimes.…”

Elucidating the role of metabolic changes in modulating cell fate following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs by Wong, Alex Xing Fah

“…Better understanding of the cellular pathways underlying this escape from antimitotic drug-induced cell death, known as mitotic slippage, is crucial for development of combinatorial therapies that can enhance existing treatment regimen in patients. Mitotic slippage describes a phenomenon where cells escape mitotic arrest and cell death following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs, and "slip" into interphase without proper chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. …”

Evaluating new malaria vaccine candidates by Noé, A

“…Liver-resident memory CD8+ T cells (TRM) are necessary for protection against rodent malaria by this vaccine regimen. Ultimately, to most faithfully assess immunological responses by these local, specialised, hepatic T cells, periodic liver sampling is necessary. …”

A comparative analysis of missing data imputation techniques on sedimentation data by Loh, Wing Son, Ling, Lloyd, Chin, Ren Jie, Lai, Sai Hin, Loo, Kar Kuan, Seah, Choon Sen

“…A comparative analysis on the missing fine sediment data imputation performance was made based on four different techniques, namely the k-Nearest Neighbourhood (k-NN), Support Vector Regression (SVR), Multiple Regression (MR), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN), under the single imputation (SI) and multiple imputation (MI) regimes. Across different missing data proportions (10%-50%), the ANN demonstrated optimal results with consistent performance metrics recorded over both SI and MI regimes. …”

The prevention and management of chronic kidney disease among patients with metabolic syndrome by Zhu, D, Judge, PK, Wanner, C, Haynes, R, Herrington, WG

“…In addition, statin-based regimens lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and reduce the risk of atherosclerotic disease (with no clinically meaningful effect on kidney outcomes). …”

Somatic gene mutation patterns and burden influence outcomes with enasidenib in relapsed/refractory IDH2-mutated AML by Risueño, A, See, WL, Bluemmert, I, de Botton, S, DiNardo, CD, Fathi, AT, Schuh, AC, Montesinos, P, Vyas, P, Prebet, T, Gandhi, A, Hasan, M

“…We recently reported results from the phase 3 IDHENTIFY trial (NCT02577406) showing improved response rates and event-free survival with enasidenib monotherapy compared with conventional care regimens (CCR) in heavily pretreated, older patients with late-stage R/R AML bearing IDH2 mutations. …”

Experimental study on sediment clump by Yang, Yang

“…A group of dense particles released instantaneously into stagnant ambient water is generally studied as thermal-like formation, experiences the classical three regimes of transition, namely the acceleration, thermal and dispersive regimes (Wilkinson & Rahimipour 1992). …”

Structure of mushy layers grown from perfectly and imperfectly conducting boundaries. Part 1. Diffusive solidification by Hitchen, JR, Wells, AJ

“…For an isothermal boundary we characterise different growth regimes depending on a concentration ratio, which can also be viewed as characterising the ratio of composition-dependent freezing point depression versus the temperature difference across the mushy layer. …”

Clostridium difficile bacteriophage finding under normal and iron-limited conditions for the isolation of potential siderophore receptor-specific phages by Lim, Edsel Yong Xun

“…Phage therapy, known for its specificity of action, has emerged as a promising candidate for combating CDI, offering the potential to circumvent gut microbiome dysbiosis associated with conventional antibiotic regimens. However, research on Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) phage hunting has been relatively limited. …”
