Kidney functional changes over time in liver recipients by E. D. Kosmacheva, A. E. Babich

“…Glomerular filtration rate is the main parameter characterizing the kidney functional condition. The evaluation of glomerular filtration rate is of significant importance, since in addition to an objective indicator of the kidney functional capacity, it is also a predictor of various pathological conditions, including cardiovascular complications.The aim of the study was to assess creatinine levels and glomerular filtration rates before and after orthotopic liver transplantation in clinical practice.Material and methods. …”

Spline approximation of multivalued functions in linear structures routing by D. A. Karpov, V. I. Struchenkov

“…Although an algorithm for solving the problem in relation to the design of a longitudinal profile has been implemented and published, this is not suitable for designing a route plan, since, unlike a profile, a route plan is generally a multivalued function. The present paper aims to generalize the algorithm for the case of spline approximation of multivalued functions making allowance for the design features of the routes of linear structures.Methods. …”
