Efavirenz pharmacogenetics and metabolic toxicity in black South Africans by Makgai, Lesiba Meshack

“…These associations remained significant in multivariate analyses adjusting for age, sex, weight, baseline CD4 cell count and viral load [total cholesterol (β = 14.93, p< 0.001), LDL cholesterol (β = 15.57, p = 0.014), and HDL cholesterol (β = 24.22, p< 0.001)]. …”

Properties governing the flow of solution and air through crushed ore for heap leaching by Robertson, Stefan

“…Compressibility of the agglomerates under load was found to increase with silt + clay (-75 μm) content as high contents of silt and clay result in the destruction of porosity under load. …”

Development of a tissue-regenerative vascular graft: Structural and Mechanical Aspects by Sirry, Mazin Salaheldin

“…The luminal grafts surfaces were subjected to uniformly distributed pressure load ramping from 0 to 200mmHg. Models were compared in terms of predicted maximum stress and strain, wall compression, strain energy, radial displacement and compliance. …”

Numerical simulation of nuclear reactor isotope depletion by Keyser, Tinus

“…The output of the reactor burnup simulation was compared to that of ORIGEN (The Oak Ridge National Laboratory Isotope Generation And Depletion Code) for a Light Water Reactor at constant load to a burnup of 33GWd/ton. The output of the simulation was relatively similar to that of ORIGEN, but differed in some marked ways, e.g. plutonium breeding, which suggested that the neutron flux calculations and neutron absorption by U238 was not similarly modelled as in ORIGEN. …”
