Mycoplasma bovis-induced inhibition of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation is ameliorated after blocking the immune-inhibitory programmed death 1 receptor by Suleman M.

“…We demonstrated that M. bovis infection induced a significant decrease in CD4+ PD-1INT and CD8+ PD-1INT subsets with intermediate PD-1 expression, which functioned as progenitor pools giving rise to CD4+ PD-1HIGH and CD8+ PD-1HIGH subsets with high PD-1 expression levels. …”

Molecular and Peritoneal Microvascular Changes Cause Peritoneal Membrane Dysfunction by Uremia-Related Mechanisms by Zakaria, El-Rasheid

“…These changes were assumed to be the cause for peritoneal membrane dysfunction and technique failure that was observed in some long-term PD patients. However, this assumption was refuted by the findings from animal models of chronic PD that showed the exact structural phenotype of the long-term PD, and yet a normal peritoneal function. …”

Modification of Pd/CeO2 catalyst by Atomic Layer Deposition of ZrO2 by Onn, Tzia Ming

“…Calcination of the unmodified Pd/CeO2, prepared by precipitation of aqueous Ce(NO3)3 solutions, with Pd added by impregnation, caused a large decrease in surface area and an increase in crystallite size between 673 K and 1073 K; however, catalysts modified by 0.4 nm ZrO2 films showed no change in either surface area or CeO2 crystallite size upon calcination to 1073 K. …”

Adaptive thermal comfort in the different buildings of Darjeeling Hills in eastern India – Effect of difference in elevation by Thapa, Samar

“…Thermal comfort standards are required to provide comfortable indoor condition which has a positive effect on the occupant. However, the Predicted Mean Vote – Percentage People Dissatisfied (PMV-PPD) model which is used to determine the indoor comfort in most of the international standards fails often, especially in naturally ventilated buildings. …”

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. …”

Pd nanocrystals encapsulated in MOF-derived Ni/N-doped hollow carbon nanosheets for efficient thermal CO oxidation: unveiling the effect of porosity by Ipadeola, Adewale K.

“…Conspicuously, the T100 of Pd/Ni-MOF-HNC was lower than those of most previously reported Pd-based catalysts due to the high porosity, surface area, and electronic interaction of Pd/Ni-Nx, and Ni-metal defects, which promote the adsorption/activation of reactants (CO + O2), decrease the activation energy to 73.1 kJ mol−1 and enhance the reaction rate at the same CO conversion percentage. …”
