The study investigates the effect of geopolitical risk (GPR) on the financial distress of tourism & hospitality firms in India. Using two-step GMM, this study evaluates the impact of GPR, GPR Threat, GPR Action and GPR India on financial distress using Altman score for emerging markets as proxy for financial distress. Further, robustness is checked...

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are extensively studied as potent antibacterial agents targeting antibiotic-resistant pathogens. Cellular damage induced through various mechanisms that can affect multiple cell components like the outer membrane, enzymes, and proteins is closely linked to their chemical and morphological characteristics. We investigate...

The article presents the results of studying non-metallic inclusions (NI) after extra-furnace treatment of the 13Cr9Mo2Co1NiVNbNB steel melt to produce large-sized ingots. The objects of the study were laboratory samples (the first batch), and samples obtained after melting in industrial furnace, followed by modification and double vacuuming (the s...
The aim of this study was to determine the microclimate of brown bear dens depending on their size, their status (active or inactive), and the location of the den. The study included five dens of different sizes and locations in the Velebit Mountains, in the Dinaric Alps. The measurements of air temperature (°C) and relative humidity (%) in dens an...

Since 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DSPC), the component to keep structure of mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (LNP), is known to cause adverse effects, the replacement of DSPC with the combination of 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE) and 1-stearoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phospho ethanolamine (SHPE) was investigated. Speci...
The fundamental trade‐off between current and future reproduction has long been considered to result in a tendency for species that can grow large to begin reproduction at a larger size. Due to the prolonged time required to reach maturity, estimates of tree maturation size remain very rare and we lack a global view on the generality and the shape ...
To evaluate the rate of disease progression and the factors associated with such progression in patients with an ultrasound diagnosis of adenomyosis. This was a single center, prospective, observational, cohort study performed at a tertiary referral center. Patients who obtained an ultrasound diagnosis of adenomyosis from May 2022 to August 2022 we...
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have attracted great attention as promising intracellular drug delivery carriers. While the endocytic pathways of small EVs (sEVs, 200 nm), despite their potential applications for drug delivery. Additionally, the low yield of EVs during isolation remains a major challenge in their application. Herein, we aimed to compa...
For floating offshore wind turbines, a significant pitch and roll motion response of the platform can affect the acceleration and power generation of the nacelle. The damping plate is considered a type of attachment that can be used to reduce rotational motion, but research on its anti-rotational effect is limited. The objective of this work is to ...
