Membrane-Bound sn-1,2-Diacylglycerols Explain the Dissociation of Hepatic Insulin Resistance from Hepatic Steatosis in MTTP Knockout Mice
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2020-12)
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTTP) deficiency results in a syndrome of hypolipidemia and accelerated NAFLD. Animal models of decreased hepatic MTTP activity have revealed an unexplained dissociation between ...
A Novel Two Stage Controller for a DC-DC Boost Converter to Harvest Maximum Energy from the PV Power Generation
(MDPI, 2020-04-14)
In this article, an efficient and fast two-stage approach for controlling DC-DC boost converter using non linear sliding mode controller for a PV power plant is proposed. The control approach is based on two online methods ...
Inertial Subgradient Extragradient Methods for Solving Variational Inequality Problems and Fixed Point Problems
(MDPI, 2020-05-11)
We propose two new iterative algorithms for solving K-pseudomonotone variational inequality problems in the framework of real Hilbert spaces. These newly proposed methods are obtained by combining the viscosity approximation ...
Psychological Risk Factors that Predict Social Networking and Internet Addiction in Adolescents
(MDPI, 2020-06-26)
Adolescents’ addictive use of social media and the internet is an increasing concern among parents, teachers, researchers and society. The purpose was to examine the contribution of body self-esteem, personality traits, ...
Multiple Sensor Monitoring of CFRP Drilling to Define Cutting Parameters Sensitivity on Surface Roughness, Cylindricity and Diameter
(MDPI, 2020-06-21)
Machining parameters affects the final quality of components made in carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composite materials. In this framework, the work here presented aims at studying the right combination of cutting ...
Decreased Striatal Adenosine A(2A)-Dopamine D(2)Receptor Heteromerization in Schizophrenia
(Springer Nature, 2020-10-03)
According to the adenosine hypothesis of schizophrenia, the classically associated hyperdopaminergic state may be secondary to a loss of function of the adenosinergic system. Such a hypoadenosinergic state might either be ...
Parameter-Free Hybridlike Functional Based on an Extended Hubbard Model: DFT Plus U Plus V
(American Physical Society, 2020-10-13)
In this paper, we propose an energy functional at the level of DFT U + V that allows us to compute self-consistently the values of the onsite interaction, Hubbard U and Hund J, as well as the intersite interaction V. This ...
Combining Gamma With Alpha and Beta Power Modulation for Enhanced Cortical Mapping in Patients With Focal Epilepsy
(Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2020)
About one third of patients with epilepsy have seizures refractory to the medical treatment. Electrical stimulation mapping (ESM) is the gold standard for the identification of “eloquent” areas prior to resection of ...
Stable Two-Dimensional Soliton Complexes in Bose-Einstein Condensates with Helicoidal Spin-Orbit Coupling
(IOP Publishing, 2020-10-08)
We show that attractive two-dimensional (2D) spinor Bose-Einstein condensates with helicoidal spatially periodic spin-orbit coupling (SOC) support a rich variety of stable fundamental solitons and bound soliton complexes. ...
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 ...
