Chronic kidney disease is defined as a reduced glomerular filtration rate, increased urinary
albumin excretion, or both, and is an increasing public health issue. Prevalence is estimated …

The global nephrology community recognises the need for a cohesive plan to address the
problem of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In July, 2016, the International Society of …

World Kidney Day on March 8, 2012, provides a chance to reflect on the success of kidney
transplantation as a therapy for end-stage renal disease (ESRD) that surpasses dialysis …

Results are presented from searches for the standard model Higgs boson in proton–proton
collisions at s=7 and 8 TeV in the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the LHC, using …

Abstract Properties of the Higgs boson with mass near 125\(\,\text {GeV}\) are measured in
proton-proton collisions with the CMS experiment at the LHC. Comprehensive sets of …

A detailed description is reported of the analysis used by the CMS Collaboration in the
search for the standard model Higgs boson in pp collisions at the LHC, which led to the …

Objectives : We sought to determine the factors associated with long-term survival in patients
with primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) treated with continuous epoprostenol infusion. …

Background— Characteristics of patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH)
who benefit from long-term calcium channel blockers (CCB) are unknown. Methods and …

The properties of a Higgs boson candidate are measured in the H→ ZZ→ 4 ℓ decay channel,
with ℓ= e, μ, using data from pp collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.1 fb…

Observation of the diphoton decay mode of the recently discovered Higgs boson and
measurement of some of its properties are reported. The analysis uses the entire dataset collected …
