Summary: The interleukin (IL)-22 cytokine can be protective or inflammatory in the intestine.It is unclear if IL-22 receptor (IL-22Ra1)-mediated protection involves a specific type of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC).By using a range of IEC type-specific Il22Ra1 conditional knockout mice and a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) colitis model, we demonstr
Natural and Waste Materials for Desulfurization of Gaseous Fuels and Petroleum Products
Currently, the key challenge of the oil-refining industry worldwide is to produce environmentally friendly fuel in large volumes to meet market demand, which is due to strict environmental standards governing the permissible sulfur content in fuel.Natural gas, refinery gas, and coal gas contain acid gases such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide
A Comparative Evaluation of Visual, Refractive, and Patient-Reported Outcomes of Three Diffractive Trifocal Intraocular Lenses
Objective: To compare the visual, refractive, and patient-reported outcomes of eyes implanted with one of 3 trifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs).Methods: This is a cross-sectional, comparative, non-interventional study wherein subjects implanted with FineVision Micro F, AT LISA tri 839MP or AcrySof IQ PanOptix trifocal IOL after phacoemulsification w
Study on the damage prediction model of PTFE/AL projectiles on the basis of regression analysis
Polytetrafluoroethylene/aluminum (PTFE/AL) projectiles can effectively enhance the damage efficiency of traditional projectiles.Numerical simulation via ANSYS AUTODYN ucsb gaucho blue and data analysis via Origin are effective means to help predict the damage efficiency of PTFE/AL projectiles.In order to obtain a suitable damage prediction model to
