Multimessenger Probes of Supermassive Black Hole Spin Evolution by Angelo Ricarte, Priyamvada Natarajan, Ramesh Narayan, Daniel C. M. Palumbo

“…Using the semianalytic model Serotina , we investigate the cosmic spin evolution of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) incorporating recent results from general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations of spin-down from relativistic jets. We compare several variations of our model with compiled black hole (BH) spin measurements derived from X-ray reflection spectroscopy, correcting for a bias arising from the spin-dependent radiative efficiency of accretion flows. …”

Effect of weight loss on the course of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: results of 6-month follow-up by L. V. Chesnokova, I. M. Petrov, I. A. Troshina, M. V. Goncharova, I. V. Medvedeva

“…Weight loss for at least 5% was gained in 44,1% of patients with NAFLD in association to obesityand in 56,6% of those with NAFLD in combination to MS, that was accompanied by significant reduction of lipid atherogenic fraction levels (cholesterol, low density lipoproteins), decrease of insulin resistance index, CRP and TNF-α inflammation markers, and decrease of leptin concentration in MS group. Comparative analysis of adiponectin and NO metabolites concentration has shown demonstrated, that in patients with NAFLD both in combination to obesity, and in combination to MS the target level of weight loss is accompanied by elevation of adiponectin level (р&lt;0,05) and NO stable metabolites (р&lt;0,05), whereas concentration of nitrites is increased significantly (р&lt;0,05) only in obese patients.Conclusions. …”
