The input of seismic wave with different frequency has a significant impact on loess slope instability. On the basis of field investigation and experiments, the particle flow software PFC was used to explore the effect of seismic frequency spectrum on slope instability through the process of calibrating soil microscopic parameters, model establishment, seismic wave input and other processes. The results show that: 1. The low-frequency component of the input wave is the main frequency band that causes the slope instability, the slope has amplifying effect on the low-frequency input wave, and the slope has a "filtering" effect on the high-frequency input wave; 2. The instability of the slope will cause an increase in frequency components above 10 Hz; 3. The special structure of the slope is one of the main reasons for the instability of the slope. This result has theoretical and practical significance for earthquake landslide prevention and monitoring and early warning.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the correlation between longitudinal monitoring of donor-derived cell free DNA (dd-cfDNA) in lung transplant recipients and a "gold standard" of existing tools (pulmonary function testing, radiographic imaging, laboratory and bronchoscopy data, clinical judgment) to assess allograft function.

Methods: 24 consecutive transplant recipients were prospectively enrolled in this study measuring dd-cfDNA levels monthly in the first year after bilateral lung transplant. Blinded clinical adjudications were performed at the same timepoints to categorize allograft function as stable (FEV1 within 10% of prior value or when compared to best two averaged post-transplant values) or unstable.

Theoretical analysis of additional surrounding rock pressure in shallow buried bias tunnel.

China Construction Eighth Engineering Division Rail Transit Construction Co., Ltd, Nanjing, 210018, Jiangsu, China.

The existing calculation method for the surrounding rock pressure of shallow buried bias tunnel fails to account for the impact of the progressive failure characteristics of the surrounding rock and slope creep, thereby neglecting the additional pressure arising from slope creep. Therefore, the progressive instability failure mode of the surrounding rock of shallow buried bias tunnel was obtained by numerical simulation. Based on this, the theoretical analysis model of the additional pressure of shallow buried bias tunnel was established, and the calculation formula of the additional pressure was derived.

: Instability is a major reason for revision after total hip arthroplasty (THA), and acetabular cup placement in the "traditional" safe zone does not protect against dislocations. Spinopelvic mobility may play a role in impingement and dislocation after THA. Personalized acetabular cup placement that incorporates spinopelvic mobility is currently lacking in the literature.

Background And Objective: In silico human models are being used more and more to predict the potential proarrhythmic risk of compounds. It has been shown that incorporation of the dynamics of drug-hERG channel interactions can have an important impact on the action potential duration (APD) at normal heart rates. Our aim is to investigate the relevance of drug dynamics on other important biomarkers of proarrhythmic risk.

Purpose: The failure rate following posterolateral corner reconstruction (PLC) remains high. Previous research indicates that in posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction the laxity is affected by the tibial slope (TS). However, there is currently no literature evaluating the impact of TS on surgical outcome in combined reconstruction of PLC/PCL.
