Gravitational wave luminosity distance for Starobinsky gravity in viscous cosmological models by Jia-nan Chi, Ya-Bo Wu, Yu Sang, Xue Zhang, Yi-liang Hu, Wen-zhong Liu, Bo-hai Chen

“…It is worth noting that the numerical analyses to $$\delta (z)$$ δ ( z ) and $$d_L^{GW}(z)/d_L^{EM}(z)$$ d L GW ( z ) / d L EM ( z ) illustrate once again that the GW luminosity distance $$d_L^{GW}(z)$$ d L GW ( z ) is indeed influenced by $$\alpha $$ α and $$\eta $$ η , in particular more sensitive to $$\alpha $$ α than $$\eta $$ η in our model. In addition, by comparing the GW and EM luminosity distances of SG model with $$d_{L(GR)}$$ d L ( G R ) of Einstein GR, we find that the GW and EM signals in SG1 and SG2 change from stronger to weaker than the ones in GR as redshift increases and more difficultly to be detected in the same distance and detection sensitivity. …”

Impact of donor CYP3A5 genotype on pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in South African paediatric liver transplant patients by C Wheeler, C Masimirembwa, B Mthembu, J Botha, J Scholefield, J Fabian

“…During the first 15 days post-transplant, we found that children who received grafts from donor CYP3A5 expressors (CYP3A5*1/*1 and *1/*3) had significantly lower mean tacrolimus CDRs compared with those who received grafts from donor CYP3A5 non-expressors (*3/*3); the recipients of CYP3A5 expressor grafts therefore require higher doses of oral tacrolimus to achieve the same therapeutic target range. In addition, graft-to-recipient weight ratio and the CYP3A5 donor genotypes were independent factors that significantly (p<0.05) affected mean tacrolimus CDRs in recipients. …”
