The role of different lipid species such as free fatty acids and sphingolipids in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has been extensively studied during the last decade.In addition, free cholesterol accumulation Outdoor Grills in hepatocytes plays a crucial role in the Necklaces transition from steatosis to steatohepatitis.However, the contr
Influence of frequency-dependent dynamic soil stiffness and interacting parameters on elastic and inelastic response of soil-structure systems
In seismic analysis and design of structures, it is generally assumed that the soil beneath the foundation is rigid and, thus, its flexibility is not taken into account.Soil flexibility can affect the response of structures through complex phenomenon of dynamics soil-structure interaction effect.It is believed that effective soil and structural par
Asymptomatic Carriage of C. botulinum Type D/C in Broiler Flocks as the Source of Contamination of a Massive Botulism Outbreak on a Dairy Cattle Farm
In winter 2018, a massive type D/C cattle botulism outbreak occurred on a mixed dairy and broiler farm in France.An investigation was conducted based on the hypothesis of asymptomatic carriage in poultry.We set out to identify the source of contamination of the dairy cattle and to monitor the contamination of broilers over time, including the hatch
Mental Fatigue Has Great Impact on the Fractal Dimension of Brain Functional Network
Mental fatigue has serious negative impacts on the brain cognitive functions and has been widely explored by the means of brain functional networks with the neuroimaging technique of electroencephalogram (EEG).Recently, several researchers reported that brain functional network constructed from EEG signals has fractal feature, raising an important
Coral Gardens Reef, Belize: An Acropora spp. refugium under threat in a warming world.
Live coral cover has declined precipitously on Caribbean reefs in recent decades.Acropora cervicornis coral has been particularly decimated, and few Western Atlantic Acropora spp.refugia remain.Coral Gardens, Belize, was identified in 2020 as a long-term refugium for this species.This study assesses changes in live A.cervicornis coral abundance ove
