Metabolic Alterations in Plasma from Patients with Familial and Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease
(Impact Journals LLC, 2020-09-15)
The research of new biomarkers for Parkinson's disease is essential for accurate and precocious diagnosis, as well as for the discovery of new potential disease mechanisms and drug targets. The main objective of this work ...
High Harmonics and Isolated Attosecond Pulses from MgO
(American Physical Society, 2021-01-08)
On the basis of real-time ab initio calculations, we study the nonperturbative interaction of two-color laser pulses with MgO crystal in the strong-field regime to generate isolated attosecond pulses from high-harmonic ...
On p-Form Gauge Theories and their Conformal Limits
(Springer, 2021-03-02)
Relations between the various formulations of nonlinear p-form electrodynamics with conformal-invariant weak-field and strong-field limits are clarified, with a focus on duality invariant (2n - 1)-form electrodynamics and ...
On an SEIR Epidemic Model with Vaccination of Newborns and Periodic Impulsive Vaccination with Eventual On-Line Adapted Vaccination Strategies to the Varying Levels of the Susceptible Subpopulation
(MDPI, 2020-11-23)
This paper investigates a susceptible-exposed-infectious-recovered (SEIR) epidemic model with demography under two vaccination effort strategies. Firstly, the model is investigated under vaccination of newborns, which is ...
Astrocytes in Alzheimer’s Disease: Pathological Significance and Molecular Pathways
(MDPI, 2021-03-04)
Astrocytes perform a wide variety of essential functions defining normal operation of the nervous system and are active contributors to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s among others. ...
The Promotion of Sustainable Diets in the Healthcare System and Implications for Health Professionals: A Scoping Review
(MDPI, 2021-02-26)
The impacts of the current global food system are already visible in the environment and in the health of the population. The promotion of sustainable diets is key to counter the negative consequences. The healthcare system ...
RNA Localization and Local Translation in Glia in Neurological and Neurodegenerative Diseases: Lessons from Neurons
(MDPI, 2021-03-12)
Cell polarity is crucial for almost every cell in our body to establish distinct structural and functional domains. Polarized cells have an asymmetrical morphology and therefore their proteins need to be asymmetrically ...
Determinants of Corporate Anti-Corruption Disclosure: The Case of the Emerging Economics
(MDPI, 2021-03-20)
Corruption is a key factor that affects countries’ development, with emerging countries being a geographical area in which it tends to generate greater negative effects. However, few empirical studies analyze corruption ...
Self-Tuning Algorithm for Tuneable Clamping Table for Chatter Suppression in Blade Recontouring
(MDPI, 2021-03-13)
The production and repair of blades for aerospace engines and energy turbines is a complex process due their inherently low stiffness and damping properties. The final recontouring operation is usually performed by milling ...
Competition between nucleation and confinement in the crystallization of poly(ethylene glycol)/ large aspect ratio hectorite nanocomposites
(Elsevier Ltd, 2020-06-25)
The overall crystallization kinetics of polymer nanocomposites is determined by nucleation and crystal growth, which are both greatly affected by confinement. Heterogeneous nucleation is influenced by the interphase area ...
