TL;DR: Object-oriented dynamic mesh engine has been built up from ground-up in OpenFOAM, a C++ object-oriented library for numerical simulations in continuum mechanics, with emphasis given on polyhedral cell support in mesh analysis and discretisation, vertex-based automatic mesh motion techniques and hierarchical design of topology morphing engine.
Abstract: Extension of static mesh numerics in a CFD solver to cases with deforming boundaries considerably expands the scope of its use. Dynamic mesh handling includes deforming mesh cases, where the number and connectivity of mesh elements remains unchanged; and topological changes, where mesh size and connectivity varies during the simulation. Cases where the boundary deformation itself represents a part of the solution demand special attention: here, mesh handling needs to be fully automatic. This paper describes dynamic mesh support in OpenFOAM, a C++ object-oriented library for numerical simulations in continuum mechanics. Unlike other tools, where dynamic mesh support is usually retro-fitted, object-oriented dynamic mesh engine has been built up from ground-up. Emphasis is given polyhedral cell support in mesh analysis and discretisation, vertex-based automatic mesh motion techniques and hierarchical design of topology morphing engine. The paper is completed with examples of solution-dependent motion with large boundary deformation.

TL;DR: It is reasonable to believe that humans are much more frequently exposed to CTN than generally accepted, because it is produced by the same moulds as OTA, which is a common contaminant of human food all over the world.
Abstract: Citrinin (CTN) is a nephrotoxic mycotoxin produced by several fungal strains belonging to the genera Penicillium, Aspergillus, and Monascus. It contaminates various commodities of plant origin, cereals in particular, and is usually found together with another nephrotoxic mycotoxin, ochratoxin A (OTA). These two mycotoxins are believed to be involved in the aetiology of endemic nephropathy. In addition to nephrotoxicity, CTN is also embryocidal and fetotoxic. The genotoxic properties of CTN have been demonstrated with the micronuleus test (MN), but not with single-cell gel electrophoresis. The mechanism of CTN toxicity is not fully understood, especially not whether CTN toxicity and genotoxicity are the consequence of oxidative stress or of increased permeability of mitochondrial membranes. CTN requires complex cellular biotransformation to exert mutagenicity.Compared with other mycotoxins, CTN contamination of food and feed is rather scarce. However, it is reasonable to believe that humans are much more frequently exposed to CTN than generally accepted, because it is produced by the same moulds as OTA, which is a common contaminant of human food all over the world.At present, there are no specific regulations either in Croatia or in the European Union concerning CTN in any kind of commodity.

TL;DR: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 7% to 18% of hospitalized patients and complicates the course of 50% to 60% of those admitted to the intensive care unit, carrying both significant mortality and morbidity.
Abstract: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 7% to 18% of hospitalized patients and complicates the course of 50% to 60% of those admitted to the intensive care unit, carrying both significant mortality and morbidity.[1][1] Even though many cases of AKI are reversible within days to weeks of occurrence, data
