Experimental Research on Chinese Traditional Style Architecture Dual-lintel–Column Joint Under Alternating Rapid Loads by JinShuang DONG, Yanru GONG, Bin HUANG, Yan SUI, Liang YANG, Longjian LI

“…Modern building materials and construction technologies have been adopted in traditional Chinese structures; however, their structural properties, mechanical properties, and analytical methods differ from those of modern structures. Research shows that, compared to contemporary reinforced concrete column-beam joints, the structural mechanical properties of Chinese traditional-style architecture are inferior.Methods Consequently, three specimens are designed to study the mechanical behavior of Chinese traditional-style architecture dual-lintel-column joints with a steel-concrete composite structure and viscous dampers. …”

Thyroid Feedback Quantile-based Index correlates strongly to renal function in euthyroid individuals by Sijue Yang, Shuiqing Lai, Zixiao Wang, Aihua Liu, Wei Wang, Haixia Guan

“…Similar results were obtained in SPINA-GD as in FT3/FT4.Conclusions In euthyroid individuals, decreased sensitivity to thyroid hormone is associated with reduced renal function. The composite PTFQIFT4 index correlates more strongly to renal function than TSH or T4 alone.KEY MESSAGESDecreased sensitivity to thyroid hormone is associated with reduced renal function in the euthyroid population.The recently developed composite index PTFQIFT4 seems to correlate more strongly to renal function than individual TSH or FT4 parameters.Innovative indices TT3RI and PTFQIFT3 based on the interaction between T3 and TSH may also reflect sensitivity to thyroid hormone.…”
