Chronic Fatigue Mechanisms in Autoimmune Diseases: Lessons from Primary Biliary Cholangitis and Systemic Sclerosis
DownloadFall 2023
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease affecting the body's connective tissues, resulting in progressive fibrosis and vasculopathy. In some cases, individuals with SSc may also develop primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), another autoimmune disease characterized by damage to their...

Development of a 3D Equivalent Continuum Model for Deformation Analysis of Systematically Jointed Rock Masses
DownloadFall 2013
Deformability of jointed rock masses are potentially anisotropic and non-linear due to existence of the discontinuities intersecting the rock matrix. Models to analysis the deformation of jointed rock masses are divided into two main categories: discontinuum models and equivalent continuum...

Spring 2013
The field of transfusion medicine is dependent upon the ability to store and preserve the native functionality of red blood cells (RBCs). The subtle membrane changes that the RBC incurs during storage can result in compromised quality and diminished function upon transfusion. A custom adhesion...

Spring 2011
Transfusion medicine is dependent upon the ability to hypothermically preserve red blood cell (RBC) function ex vivo. Recent evidence suggests that the deformability of hypothermically stored RBCs may be compromised, potentially leading to microvasculature occlusion and tissue hypoxia in...
