(2024-12)Objective: to evaluate the role of urinary URO17® biomarker in the detection of urothelial tumors in haematuria patients and the detection of recurrence in non-muscle invasive bladder urothelial tumors. Materials and ... -
Performance design of high-temperature chloride salts as thermal energy storage material
(2024-03-30)The chloride salts have great potential used as high-temperature thermal energy storage (TES) medium for the concentrated solar power system. In this study, LiCl, KCl and CaCl 2 were selected as energy storage materials ... -
Impact of incremental initiation of haemodialysis on mortality: a systematic review and meta-analysis
(2023-02-28)Background Incremental haemodialysis initiation entails lower sessional duration and/or frequency than the standard 4 h thrice-weekly approach. Dialysis dose is increased as residual kidney function (RKF) declines. This ... -
Incorporating new approach methodologies into regulatory nonclinical pharmaceutical safety assessment
(2023-07-20)New approach methodologies (NAMs) based on human biology enable the assessment of adverse biological effects of pharmaceuticals and other chemicals. Currently, however, it is unclear how NAMs should be used during drug ... -
