Podocyturia: A Clue for the Rational Use of Amiloride in Alport Renal Disease by H. Trimarchi, R. Canzonieri, A. Muryan, A. Schiel, A. Araoz, M. Paulero, J. Andrews, T. Rengel, M. Forrester, F. Lombi, V. Pomeranz, R. Iriarte, E. Zotta

“…Microhematuria and subsequently proteinuria are hallmarks of kidney involvement, which are due to primary basement membrane alterations that mainly cause endothelial thrombosis and podocyte contraction and ulterior irreversible detachment. Commonly drug-based approaches include angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers, which are employed to reduce proteinuria and thus retard kidney disease progression and cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. …”

Study on the mechanical properties of negative poisson’s ratio honeycomb prepared by equibiaxial compression method by LI Yuwei, SU Buyun, QIU Ji, SHU Xuefeng, LI Zhiqiang

“…ObjectiveNegative Poisson’s ratio materials are widely used in various fields because of their unique properties of expansion in tension and contraction in compression.MethodsA honeycomb material with negative Poisson’s ratio was obtained by equal biaxial compression of the two-dimensional Voronoi model, and the effects of different compression ratios on its static tensile/compressive mechanical properties were studied by numerical simulation.ResultsThe results show that the tensile and compressive stress-strain curves of the two-dimensional negative Poisson’s ratio honeycomb prepared by the above method have typical "three-stage" deformation characteristics of porous materials, and show significant tensile and compressive strength asymmetry. …”
