Abstract Hexavalent chromium is a highly toxic environmental inorganic pollutant. To eliminate toxic Cr (VI) ions in natural waters, polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) have been developed for highly selective metal ion transport applications. The investigation of the effectiveness of Cr (VI) recovery in aqueous solutions using PIMs with varying amounts of plasticizer was studied. The pseudo-first order (PFO) kinetic model was modified to describe the amount of Cr (VI) ions that have accumulated onto the PIMs at a specific time and to evaluate the performance of the PIMs. A quantitative analysi

We found that PIM kinases were upregulated in hypoxia at the protein level but not at the mRNA level, confirming that PIMs were upregulated in hypoxia in a hypoxia inducible factor 1-independent manne

Abstract:

Abstract Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are a group of hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by the abnormal production of various myeloid cells. Aberrant JAK2 signaling (e.g. induced by JAK2-V617F) plays an etiological role in MPN formation. While JAK2 inhibitors improve patient symptoms, they do not induce cell death as neoplastic cells appear to be rather insensitive to JAK2 inhibition and effectively rapidly become resistant to treatment. Therefore, the development of additional therapeutic approaches for MPNs is needed. Pim kinases are serine/threonine kinases that protect

Assessing the financial impact of polymers of intrinsic microporosity, otherwise known as PIMs, at the lab scale has been impeded by the absence of a holistic approach that would envelop all related financial parameters, and most importantly any indirect costs, such as laboratory accidents that have been consistently neglected and undervalued in past assessments. To quantify the cost of PIMs in relation to the risks befalling a laboratory, an innovative cost evaluation approach was designed. This approach consists of three stages.

AbstractThe Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation's (PBGC) Pension Insurance Modeling System (PIMS) is used to evaluate the financial security and resilience of the national program backstopping private defined benefit plans. The Pension Research Council of the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania recently convened a Technical Review Panel of experts to review key inputs, outputs, and model assumptions. Our review was intended to provide a formal evaluation of the technical adequacy of the model by outside experts. The papers herein summarize views of each expert on this project. Ke

Abstract:

Abstract Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) can cure a variety of benign and malignant hematopoietic disorders, but graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remains a significant source of transplant-related mortality and morbidity. Mature T cells in donor stem cell graft are primarily responsible for the development of acute GVHD. PIM kinases are a family of serine/threonine kinases, including PIM1, PIM2 and PIM3, which are expressed following T-cell activation. The PIM kinases have been shown to inhibit apoptosis as well as to stimulate the cell metabolism and protein synthesis. In

Abstract:

The bacterial genus Mycobacterium includes important pathogens, most notably M. tuberculosis, which infects one-quarter of the entire human population, resulting in around 1.4 million deaths from tuberculosis each year. Mycobacteria, and the closely related corynebacteria, synthesize a class of abundant glycolipids, the phosphatidyl-myo-inositol mannosides (PIMs). PIMs serve as membrane anchors for hyperglycosylated species, lipomannan (LM) and lipoarabinomannan (LAM), which are surface-exposed and modulate the host immune response.

Abstract:

This paper proposes a non-negative depth reconstruction method for improving the numerical performance of a partial inertial model (PIM) for applications involving steep-slope and low-friction conditions. The PIM solves the continuity equation of two-dimensional (2D) shallow water equations (SWEs) with the interface fluxes evaluated by a simplified momentum equation that partially restores the inertial terms. In applying the PIM to flood simulations, a practical challenge is to represent complex topography and to track the moving wet–dry interface without resulting in negative water depths. An

Furthermore, the use of potentially inappropriate medications (PIM) by older adults can cause weight loss, fatigue, falls, and even death. In this context, this article evaluated the prevalence of PIM use for elderly people with CKD on hemodialysis and its association with the fatigue scale.

Abstract:

Owing to their high surface area and superior adsorption properties, spirobifluorene polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs), namely PIM-SBF-Me (methyl) and PIM-SBF-tBu ( tert -butyl), were used for the first time, to our knowledge, for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from wastewater. Spirobifluorene PIMs are known to have large surface area (can be up to 1100 m 2 g −1 ) and have been previously used mainly for gas storage applications. Dispersion of the polymers in aqueous solution was challenging owing to their extreme hydrophobic nature leading to poor adsorption efficiency of MB.

Lactic acid that is prepared by fermentation is a compound in food, cosmetic pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.

Lactic acid was successfully permeated through polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) containing hydrophilic DESs, urea-choline chloride and glucose-choline chloride.

And opting for the best-optimized treatment remains challenging. Methods: We proposed an explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) approach to redefine CIRs as prognostic markers for glioma using 694 and 693 patients’ data derived from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCG

Process integrated mechanisms (PIM) offer a new approach to the problem of coordinating the activity of physically distributed systems or devices. Current approaches to coordination all have well-recognized strengths and weaknesses. We propose a novel architecture to add to the mix, called the Process Integrated Mechanism (PIM), which enjoys the advantages of having a single controlling authority while avoiding the structural difficulties that have traditionally led to its rejection in many complex settings. In many situations, PIMs improve on previous models with regard to coordination, secur
