Application of fractal model in the Jurassic tight sandstone reservoirs of central Junggar Basin as constrained by mercury ejection curves by Hongkang Zhao, Xiangchun Chang, Tianchen Ge, Zhiping Zeng, Junjian Zhang, Daiqi Ming, Runye Han

“…Type D samples are unique in that they have higher permeability (>0.6 mD) but lower mercury removal efficiency (<35%). Fractal studies of the mercury injection curve show that it mainly reflects the pore throat characteristics, while the mercury ejection curve serves to reveal the pore features, and porosity and permeability correlate well with the fractal dimension of the injection curve, while mercury removal efficiency correlates only with the Ds' value of the ejection curve. …”

A systematic literature review to evaluate the cardiac and cerebrovascular outcomes of patients with Fabry disease treated with agalsidase Beta by Gavin Y. Oudit, Gavin Y. Oudit, Pronabesh DasMahapatra, Nicole Lyn, Florence R. Wilson, Adekemi Adeyemi, Chae Sung Lee, Ana Crespo, Mehdi Namdar

“…Rates of composite cardiac events (3.8%–24.0%; four studies, follow-up 2–10 years) and cerebrovascular events (0.0%–18.9%; 12 studies, follow-up 1–10 years) were numerically lower than rates for placebo (follow-up 3 years).ConclusionLiterature over the last 20 years indicates that agalsidase beta treatment may lead to stabilization or regression of cardiac structural thickness and mass, and reduction in cardiac and cerebrovascular events relative to placebo.…”
