Noncoding RNA-related polymorphisms in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia susceptibility
(Springer, 2014-03-11)
Background: Evidence for an inherited genetic risk for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia has been provided in several studies. Most of them focused on coding regions. However, those regions represent only 1.5% of the ...
Stability of an acid activated carbon based bifunctional catalyst for the raw bio-oil hydrodeoxygenation
(Elsevier, 2016-10-11)
The performance (activity, selectivity and stability) of a Pt-Pd catalyst supported on a phosphorus-containing activated carbon (ACP) has been studied in the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of raw bio-oil, and compared with another ...
Performance enhancement of the artificial neural network– based reinforcement learning for wind turbine yaw control
(Wiley, 2019-11-03)
The yaw angle control of a wind turbine allows maximization of the power absorbed
from the wind and, thus, the increment of the system efficiency. Conventionally, classical
control algorithms have been used for the yaw ...
Docosahexaenoic acid reduces cerebral damage and ameliorates long-term cognitive impairments caused by neonatal hypoxia-ischemia in rats
(Springer, 2011-10-29)
As the interest in the neuroprotective possibilities
of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) for brain injury has grown in the recent years, we aimed to investigate the long-term effects of this fatty acid in an experimental model ...
An Energy Potential Estimation Methodology and Novel Prototype Design for Building-Integrated Wind Turbines
(MDPI, 2019-05-27)
ROSEO-BIWT is a new Building-Integrated Wind Turbine (BIWT) intended for installation on the edge of buildings. It consists of a Savonius wind turbine and guiding vanes to accelerate the usual horizontal wind, together ...
Polymorphisms in the methotrexate transport pathway: a new tool for MTX plasma level prediction in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2013-02)
Objectives
Methotrexate (MTX) is an important component of therapy for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Treatment with MTX often causes toxicity, which can necessitate dose reduction or treatment cessation. ...
Polymorphisms of the SLCO1B1 gene predict methotrexate-related toxicity in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Wiley, 2011-10)
Background: Methotrexate (MTX) is an important component of the therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Treatment with high-dose MTX often causes toxicity, recommending a dose reduction and/or cessation of ...
Errors in the interpretation of copy number variations due to the use of public databases as a reference
(Elsevier, 2014-03-14)
The identification of new cryptic deletions and duplications can be used to improve prognostic classification in cancer. To obtain accurate results, it is necessary to discriminate between somatic alterations in the tumor ...
Spin Hall magnetoresistance at Pt/CoFe2O4 interfaces and texture effects
(AIP publishing, 2014-10-08)
We report magnetoresistance measurements on thin Pt bars grown on epitaxial (001) and (111) CoFe2O4 (CFO) ferrimagnetic insulating films. The results can be described in terms of the recently discovered spin Hall ...
