A newly developed equation produces more accurate estimates of the glomerular filtration rate, a key indicator of kidney function in patients with chronic kidney disease, according to new research. A ...

A team of mathematicians and pharmaceutical scientists collaborated to identify the major cause of the low accuracy of the equation in the FDA guidance used to predict drug-drug interaction through an ...

The new equation appears more accurate than the race-free 2021 CKD-EPI equation, according to investigators. The European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) has developed a new race- and sex-free ...

A new cubic molecular-based equation of state (MMM) accurately calculates pressure, volume, temperature (PVT) and vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for pure and mixed fluids. Comparisons to the ...

Toward that goal, the investigators first evaluated the accuracy of the 3 current kidney function estimating equations based on the filtration markers serum creatinine (cr) and cystatin C (cys) that ...

Tests of a proposed friction-factor equation have shown it to be accurate for calculating pressure loss in turbulent flow for a pipeline transporting a non-Newtonian fluid, such as most crude oils and ...

A systematic review found that alternative approaches to calculating estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) were worth looking into to properly account for diversity in populations. A review ...

The elastodynamic equations for inhomogeneous media are crucial to the seismology, the NDT of composites, the elastic metamaterials, etc. Recently, Dr. XIANG Zhihai from the Applied Mechanics ...

Drugs absorbed into the body are metabolized and thus removed by enzymes from several organs like the liver. The how fast the drug is cleared out of the system can be increased by other drugs that ...
