Anti-xa guided enoxaparin thromboprophylaxis is associated with less thromboembolism than fixed dose dalteparin in trauma patients admitted to intensive care
Published 2025“…Anti-Xa levels were measured in 83% of post-P and none in the pre-P. 40% had low levels of anti-Xa, suggesting inadequate prophylaxis, and enoxaparin doses were accordingly increased. 51% attained the desired anti-Xa levels, 9% had higher levels, and LMWH doses were subsequently reduced. VTE incidence after protocol implementation decreased from 4 to 1.3% (OR 0.31; 95% CI 0.1–0.9, P = 0.03) without increasing the bleeding rate. …”

Ablation of LAT2 Transporter Causes Intramuscular Glutamine Accumulation and Inhibition of Fasting‐Induced Proteolysis
Published 2025“…The absence of LAT2 led to increased intramuscular glutamine (Gln) accumulation (6.3‐fold, <i>p</i> < 0.0001), accompanied by a reduction in skeletal muscle proteolysis during fasting (0.61‐fold, <i>p</i> = 0.0004) primarily due to decreased proteasomal and autophagic activity (0.45‐fold, <i>p</i> = 0.016 and 0.7‐fold, <i>p</i> = 0.002, respectively). …”

Optimum sizing of steam turbines for concentrated solar power plants
Published 2012“…Thus, there is significant efficiency gains to be realized and large cost savings in increasing the turbine size up to 50MWe. Finally, although the cost of electricity of a CSP plant with capacities greater than 1MWe is significantly reduced to less than 1US$/kWh, currently such technology can only become economically viable through supporting schemes.…”
