Assessing the impact of a rare synonymous variant in the <i>KNG1</i> gene on the development of hereditary angioedema by N. A. Pechnikova, Yu. V. Ostankova, M. A. Saitgalina, A. M. Bebyakov, A. A. Totolian

“…Therefore, (1) the mutant high-molecular-weight kininogen is more easily activated by kallikrein and becomes a source of bradykinin formation through the kallikrein-kinin system; (2) the mechanism of bradykinin formation undergoes significant changes and results in the formation of functionally active but aberrant bradykinin, which alters its inactivation by enzymes with a consequent increase in its half-life, (3) the changes in positions 380-389 bring about modifications in Lys-bradykinin reproduction such that in subsequent steps it is “easily” cleaved to bradykinin by arginine aminopeptidase. …”

Exploring interactions between shading and view using visual difference prediction by Stephen Wasilewski, Marilyne Andersen

“…This paper is an exploration of how to approach the characterisation of view clarity through different facades as a function of both the facade and the view itself. While the findings are preliminary, there is already an indication that the type of view content matters to how well people will see through different systems, an important consideration when planning mock-ups and selecting shade fabrics, blinds or electrochromic glazing.…”
