Modeling of solids particle diversion to promote uniform growth of multiple hydraulic fractures

Guanyi Lu

Solid particulate additives are sometimes used to promote the uniform growth of multiple hydraulic fractures in horizontal oil and gas wells. The principle is that solid particulates block, accumulate, and form larger porous plugging zones preferentially a ...

New approaches to uncover the minimally functional hematopoietic niche using the adipocytic differentiation axis: pharmacological modulation and adrenal niche induction

Frédérica Schyrr

Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (HSPCs) reside in their niche, a structure that regulates the balance of cellular quiescence, self-renewal and commitment towards differentiated cells. This highly plastic niche is formed by several cellular players, ...

The effects of time-restricted eating and weight loss on bone metabolism and health: a 6-month randomized controlled trial

Nicholas Edward Phillips

Objective This study explored the impact of time-restricted eating (TRE) versus standard dietary advice (SDA) on bone health. Methods Adults with >= 1 component of metabolic syndrome were randomized to TRE (ad libitum eating within 12 hours) or SDA (food p ...

Raman microspectroscopy reveals unsaturation heterogeneity at the lipid droplet level and validates an in vitro model of bone marrow adipocyte subtypes

Olaia Maria Naveiras Torres-Quiroga, Josefine Catharina Pedersen Tratwal, Vasco Ledebur de Antas de Campos, Daniel Naveed Tavakol, Charles Christopher Bataclan

Bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) constitute the most abundant stromal component of adult human bone marrow. Two subtypes of BMAds have been described, the more labile regulated adipocytes (rBMAds) and the more stable constitutive adipocytes (cBMAds), which d ...
