Shear Behavior of Green Concrete Beams Reinforced with Basalt FRP Bars and Stirrups. by Elahtem, Ayman Ahmed

“…It has been found that the green concrete provides high compressive strength compared to the normal concrete with the same workability properties, which increases the shear resistance by the concrete. Finally, minimizing spacing of the stirrups is not preventing occurrence of the crack, however using minimum spacing helps in decreasing the crack width.…”

Maximum Likelihood Estimation in the Inverse Weibull Distribution with Type II Censored Data by Alshaikh, Fatima A.

“…We found that the parameter estimators are almost unbiased, while the MRL and TVaR estimators are asymptotically unbiased. Moreover, the mean squared error of all estimators decreased for larger sample sizes and it increased when the censoring proportion is increased for a fixed sample size. …”

Understanding the mechanisms mediating cardio-renal benefit of empagliflozin in type 2 diabetes mellitus by Dimitrios, Patoulias

“…They have demonstrated1 that empagliflozin treatment resulted in a significant decrease in pulse pressure (PP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac workload, compared with placebo; at week 12, placebo-adjusted mean changes from baseline were − 2.5 mmHg for PP, − 2.2 mmHg for MAP and − 315 mmHg x beats per minute (bpm) for cardiac workload (p < 0.0001 for all). …”

Worldwide trends in blood pressure from 1975 to 2015: a pooled analysis of 1479 population-based measurement studies with 19·1 million participants by Bin, Zhou

“…Global age-standardised prevalence of raised blood pressure was 24·1% (21·4–27·1) in men and 20·1% (17·8–22·5) in women in 2015. Mean systolic and mean diastolic blood pressure decreased substantially from 1975 to 2015 in high-income western and Asia Pacific countries, moving these countries from having some of the highest worldwide blood pressure in 1975 to the lowest in 2015. …”

Development and in Vitro Testing of a Nitric Oxide Nanoparticle Carrier for Acute Lung Injury by Kordi, Haya

“…Fluid filled lungs need to be mechanically ventilated for airway reopening.Ventilation might further damage delicate lung tissue and lead to edema,a phenomenon known as ventilator-induced lung injury VILI is a result of propagation of small air bubbles in gas exchange sites, injuring epithelial cells due to shear stress. Potential rescue of epithelial cells (EPCs) under injurious stresses is possible by altering their mechanical properties and hence deformation amount under stress (decreased stiffness, decreased deformation). …”
