The different bony and soft tissue reference points and the micro and macroscopic structures of the knee continue to be the object of focused study and analysis. Upon reviewing the most recent literature, we saw the wide spectrum of studies that seek to define the different anatomical aspects of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The purpose of ...

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) is a common malignancy worldwide. Emerging findings indicated that circular RNAs possess complex capacities of gene modulation in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Nevertheless, the role of circular RNA in LAC is still largely unknown. Materials and Methods: The level of circular RNA cMras (circ_cMras), alpha-beta ...
Due to the present industrial world, the risk of radioactivity is notably increasing. Thus, an appropriate shielding material needs to be designed to protect humans and the environment against radiation. In view of this, the present study aims to design new composites of the main matrix of bentonite–gypsum with a low-cost, abundant, and natural mat...
In this study, synthetic silicone rubber (SR) and Bi2O3 micro- and nanoparticles were purchased. The percentages for both sizes of Bi2O3 were 10, 20 and 30 wt% as fillers. The morphological, mechanical and shielding properties were determined for all the prepared samples. The Linear Attenuation Coefficient (LAC) values of the silicon rubber (SR) wi...

Novel glass samples with the composition 75TeO2–5Ta2O5–15Nb2O5–5x (where x = ZnO, MgO, TiO2, or Na2O) in mole percent were prepared. The physical, optical, and gamma radiation shielding properties of the glass samples were studied over a wide energy spectrum ranging between 0.015 and 20 MeV. The glasses’ UV–vis spectra were utilized to evaluate the...
The aim of this study is to investigate the radiation shielding properties of novel concrete samples with bulk Bi2O3 and Bi2O3 nanoparticles (Bi2O3 NP) incorporated into its composition. The mass attenuation coefficient of the concrete samples without Bi2O3 and with 5 and 7 wt% bulk Bi2O3 were experimentally determined and were compared against val...

The LCPC method is one of the most common abrasion tests used for determining soil and rock abrasivity. LCPC abrasivity coefficient (LAC) and LCPC brittleness coefficient (LBC) are two parameters obtained from this method. The rotation speed (RS) and rotation time (RT) are two factors that affect the results of this experiment. In this paper, the e...

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the applicability of adenosine deaminase (ADA), α-l-fucosidase (AFU), lactic acid (LAC), and their combined detection in the early diagnosis of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), liver cirrhosis (LC), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods: A retrospective analysis of hepatitis B-positive liver disease patients ...

En este artículo se echa una mirada retrospectiva así como prospectiva sobre el desarrollo de las relaciones sino-iberoamericanas. Principalmente se hace un repaso cronolígico de las interacciones entre ambas partes, en el área econímica, diplomática y política, partiendo de la segunda década del siglo XVI para terminar al final de la segunda décad...
