Plasma levels of angiopoietin-2 are increased in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Moreover, mouse models progressive also demonstrate both plasmas and kidneys. The role dysregulated angiopoietins the progression has not been thoroughly investigated. Here, we found a cohort 319 CKD that plasma angiopoietin-2/angiopoietin-1 ratios were positively associated development failure. In mice induced by either ureteral obstruction or ischemia-reperfusion injury, overexpression human...
Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is an important risk factor for incident chronic disease (CKD). Clinical studies disclose that ensuing CKD progresses after functional recovery from AKI, but the underlying mechanisms remain illusive. Using a murine model representing AKI-CKD continuum, we show angiotensin II type 1a (AT1a) receptor signaling as one of mechanisms. Male adult CD-1 mice presented severe AKI with 20% mortality within 2 weeks right nephrectomy and left renal...
Abstract Automated coronary angiography assessment requires precise vessel segmentation, a task complicated by uneven contrast filling and background noise. Our research introduces an ensemble U-Net model, SE-RegUNet, designed to accurately segment vessels using 100 labeled angiographies from angiographic images. SE-RegUNet incorporates RegNet encoders squeeze-and-excitation blocks enhance feature extraction. A dual-phase image preprocessing strategy further improves the model's performance,...
Intrauterine adhesions (IUA) occurred in the reproductive-age women are a big economic and health problem, resulting severe impairment of social, psychological physical function female genital organs. IUA-related symptoms or signs varied greatly from free ambiguous (an incidental finding during intervention) to ceased menstruation loss fecundability. The underlying pathophysiology is not completely understood, but intrauterine damage with broken basal layers endometrium formatting scar...
In this work, the dual junction-high-electron-mobility-transistor (DJ-HEMT) was investigated. The thin AlGaN grown between p-GaN gate and metal. TCAD simulations, band gap electric field were shown in letter, proving junction forming. Moreover, DJ-HEMT shows high voltage swing due to at region of device, which enhance performance. By contrast with standard HEMT (ST-HEMT), higher <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">...
Normally-off p-GaN gated AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) were developed. Oxygen plasma treatment converted a low-resistive layer in the access region to high-resistive GaN (HR-GaN); that oxygen used an AlN as diffusion barrier prevent further oxidizing of underlying AlGaN layer, and ensure was fully oxidized. Relative conventional HEMTs, these HEMTs with HR-GaN layers achieved lower drain leakage current 4.4 <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
Ni-rich high-energy-density lithium ion batteries pose great risks to safety due internal short circuits and overcharging; they also have poor performance because of cation mixing disordering problems. For layered cathodes, these factors cause gas evolution, the formation side products, life cycle decay. In this study, a new cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) for Ni2+ self-oxidation is developed. By using branched oligomer electrode additive, CEI formed prevents reduction Ni3+ on surface...
Background: Early dietary intake enhances recovery after surgery (ERAS). There remains a gap in the recognition and implementation of early-diet medical institutions Taiwan. This study aimed to investigate whether early oral benign gynecologic results favorable outcomes Taiwanese patients. Methods: was prospective controlled non-randomized cohort study. Patients who underwent gynecological were included conventional-diet groups. The primary outcome length hospital stay, secondary...
