(Miroslav Krleža Institute of Lexicography, 2021-04-19)
The aim of this paper is to take part in the debate about the future of national biographies today. In this sense, we analyse national biographical dictionaries as instruments for the creation of national memory and as a ...
Effect of reaction conditions on the deactivation by coke of a NiAl2O4 spinel derived catalyst in the steam reforming of bio-oil
(Elsevier, 2021-11-15)
[EN]The steam reforming of bio-oil is a promising and economically feasible technology for the sustainable H-2 production, yet with the main challenge of designing highly active and stable catalysts. This work aimed to ...
Design and Testing of Two Haptic Devices Based on Reconfigurable 2R Joints
(MDPI, 2021-12-30)
per presents the design and testing of two haptic devices, based on reconfigurable 2R joints: an active 2R spherical mechanism-based joint and a differential gear-based joint. Based on our previous works, in which the ...
Perception of Competence as Mediator between Motor Competence and Physical Activity
(MDPI, 2021-12-30)
Background: The practice of physical activity (PA) plays an important role in achieving an active-healthy lifestyle. Several authors have focused their studies on the relationship between motor competence (MC) and physical ...
Identification of BiP as a CB1 receptor- interacting protein that fine-tunes cannabinoid signaling in the mouse brain
(The Society for Neuroscience, 2021-09-22)
Cannabinoids, the bioactive constituents of cannabis, exert a wide array of effects on the brain by engaging Type 1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1R). Accruing evidence supports that cannabinoid action relies on context-dependent ...
Special Issue on “Machining Dynamics and Parameters Process Optimization”
(MDPI, 2020-12-14)
In 1907, F.W Taylor—the father of production engineering—exposed the fundamentals of modern machining and defined chatter as the most obscure and delicate of all problems facing the machinist [...]
Dopaminergic Denervation Impairs Cortical Motor and Associative/Limbic Information Processing Through the Basal Ganglia and its Modulation by the CB1 Receptor
(Academic Press, 2021-01)
The basal ganglia (BG) are involved in cognitive/motivational functions in addition to movement control. Thus, BG segregated circuits, the sensorimotor (SM) and medial prefrontal (mPF) circuits, process different functional ...
Determinants of Participation in a Post-Hospitalization Physical Exercise Program for Older Adults
(BioMed Central, 2020-10-16)
Background: Older patients often experience a decline in physical function and cognitive status after hospitalization. Although interventions involving physical exercise are effective in improving functional performance, ...
A Genotyping Method Combining Primer Competition PCR with HRM Analysis to Identify Point Mutations in Duchenne Animal Models
(Nature, 2020-10-14)
Dystrophin-null sapje zebrafish is an excellent model for better understanding the pathological mechanisms underlying Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and it has recently arisen as a powerful tool for high-throughput screening ...
