The Effect of Treated Waste-Water on Compaction and Compression of Fine Soil by Attom, Mousa

“…Additionally, the swelling pressure decreased by as much as 16% for both soil types. The result of this research pointed out that the use of treated waste water has a positive effect on compaction and compression properties of clay soil and promise for potential use of this water in engineering applications. …”

Predicting stability of classes in an object-oriented system by Azar, D.

“…However, in almost all cases, these models were not efficient when used to predict the quality characteristics (stability or other) of new unseen software as their prediction accuracy decreases significantly. In this paper, we present a heuristic approach that relies on the adaptation and recombination of already built predictive models to new unseen software.The predictive models are all rule-based models and the approach is tested on the stability of classes in an object-oriented software system. …”

Chronic reduction of store operated Ca²⁺ entry is viable therapeutically but is associated with cardiovascular complications by Fang Yu (156838)

“…They further establish the SOCE hypomorph line as a genetic model to define the therapeutic window of SOCE inhibition and dissect toxicities associated with chronic SOCE inhibition in a tissue-specific fashion.</p> <h2>Key points</h2> <ul> <li>A floxed stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) hypomorph mouse model was generated with significant reduction in Ca²⁺ influx through store-operated Ca²⁺ entry (SOCE), resulting in defective nuclear translocation of nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytokine production and inflammatory response. …”

Fixing a heart valve by Nature Research (16552612)

“…And yet, surgeons are often unwilling to repair the mitral valve, because the procedure is more challenging than valve replacement. As Antune points out, however, the proportion of repaired valves that need to be replaced later on decreases with surgeons' increasing experience of the procedure. …”
