In this research, chemically synthesized titanium oxide (TiO2) nano-powder was utilized for upgrading mechanical and vibrational applications of pineapple, banana and sisal fibers. The substitution of TiO2 upto 3% enhanced the tensile, impact and flexural strength of pineapple/sisal, sisal/banana and banana/pineapple hybrid combinations. Irregular ...

Binary collisions of either stable or radioactive heavy ions at Fermi energies allow to study the nuclear reaction mechanisms under dynamical conditions of non-equilibrium and the formation of transient pieces of nuclear matter of very short mean life times at sub-normal density. An important role in the evolutionary phase of the collision is playe...

Microfluidics and Nanofluidics
Nanofluidics which integrates analytical systems in 101–103 nm space provides ultra-sensitive analyses at a single-cell and single-molecule level. One of the key technologies for nanofluidics is the ultra-sensitive detection method; however, the ultra-small volume at aL–fL scale makes it challenging. Recently, we have developed a non-fluorescent mo...

It is not fully understood why some patients respond or do not respond to antidepressant treatment. Here the authors show that in the blood of individuals with depression, GPR56 expression increases in responders to antidepressant treatment, but not in non-responders.

BackgroundWe report on a patient with a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) who developed abdominal pain due to spinothalamic tract (STT) injuries revealed by diffusion tensor tractography (DTT).Case presentationA 53-year-old female patient suffered head trauma resulting from a backward fall. While bathing at a public bathhouse, she fell backward and...

Classic concepts of genetic (gene) diversity (heterozygosity) such as Nei & Li’s nucleotide diversity were defined within a population context. Although variations are often measured in population context, the basic carriers of variation are individuals. Hence, measuring variations such as SNP of an individual against a reference genome, which has ...

In recent years, geochemical and geophysical studies have challenged the commonly held view that the use of fossil Sahara aquifers is completely unsustainable because they have not been recharged since the last wet period of the Holocene. Here, we use gravity data and groundwater flow modeling to provide further evidence of modern recharge of the N...

BackgroundSeveral publications have addressed the need for a systematic integration of oncological care focused on the tumor and palliative care (PC) focused on the patient with cancer. The exponential increase in anticancer treatments and the high number of patients living longer with advanced disease have accentuated this. Internationally, there ...

Organic matter production and decomposition primarily modulate the atmospheric O2 and CO2 levels. The long term marine primary productivity is controlled by the terrestrial input of phosphorus (P), while the marine P cycle would also affect organic matter production. In the past 540 million years, the evolution of terrestrial system, e.g. colonizat...

Systematic Reviews
BackgroundImproving the speed of systematic review (SR) development is key to supporting evidence-based medicine. Machine learning tools which semi-automate citation screening might improve efficiency. Few studies have assessed use of screening prioritization functionality or compared two tools head to head. In this project, we compared performance...
