Metabolic hormones, apolipoproteins, adipokines, and cytokines in the alveolar lining fluid of healthy adults: compartmentalization and physiological correlates.

Our current understanding of hormone regulation in lung parenchyma is quite limited.We aimed to quantify a diverse array of biologically relevant protein mediators in alveolar lining fluid (ALF), compared to serum concentrations, and explore factors associated with protein compartmentalization on either side of the air-blood barrier.Participants we

Successful Control of an Onboard COVID-19 Outbreak Using the Cruise Ship as a Quarantine Facility, Western Australia, Australia

Onboard quarantining has been only partially effective to control outbreaks of coronavirus disease on cruise ships.We describe the successful use of the ship as a quarantine facility during the response to the outbreak on the MS Artania, which docked in Western Australia, Australia.The health-led 14-day quarantine regime was based on established pr

Non-equilibrium steady state formation in 3+1 dimensions

We present the first holographic simulations of non-equilibrium steady state formation in strongly coupled $mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory in 3+1 dimensions.We initially join together two thermal baths at different temperatures Cake Decorating Tools and chemical potentials and compare the subsequent evolution of the combined system to analytic solutions
