Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) has a strong potential to be established as a new contact-free measuring method in medicine. Hyperspectral cameras and data processing have to fulfill requirements concerning practicability and validity to be integrated in clinical routine processes
The connected and automated vehicle (CAV) is a promising piece of technology, anticipated to enhance the safety and effectiveness of mobility. Advanced sensing technologies and control algorithms, working to acquire environmental data, analyze data, and regulate vehicle movements, are key functional components of CAVs. In recent years, the creation of innovative sensing technologies for CAVs ha…
Connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) are a transformative technology that is expected to change and improve the safety and efficiency of mobility. As the main functional components of CAVs, advanced sensing technologies and control algorithms, which gather environmental information, process data, and control vehicle motion, are of great importance. The development of novel sensing technologi…
Pioglitazone has been reported in the literature to have a substantial role in the improvement of overall cognition in a mouse model. With this in mind, the aim of this study was to determine the most efficacious route for the administration of Pioglitazone nanoparticles (PGZ-NPs) in order to promote drug delivery to the brain for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. PGZ-loaded NPs were …
Metal and metal oxide nanoparticles have attracted increased attention due to their unusual physical and chemical properties. The nature, dispersion, and size of the nanoparticles are key factors in determining the activity and selectivity of the supported catalyst
Scarring of the glomerular and tubulointerstitial compartments is a hallmark of progressive kidney disease and is considered a common pathway leading to end-stage of renal failure. Renal fibrosis involves a complex interplay between intrinsic kidney cells, leukocytes, and fibroblasts in which transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) plays a key role. Inhibition of TGF-β1 suppresses renal fib…
With the development of modern society, environmental pollution and energy shortages have become the focus of attention worldwide. Most of the global energy supplies are generated from fossil fuel, which gives rise to environmental pollution and climate change. Photocatalysis technology, which can directly convert solar energy into high value-added fuel and chemical materials or degrade a wide …
In tilting-pad journal bearings (TPJB), power loss corresponds to the internal friction in the shearing of the oil. Besides the lubrication gap, intermediate spaces between the pads account for a notable amount of frictional losses
A Gentle Occupation analyses Dutch military operations in the aftermath of the 2003 US-led invasion in Iraq. It raises the question why, in contrast to most allied troops elsewhere in Iraq, Dutch forces in Al Muthanna province met with little resistance and left Iraq self-confident of their ability to deal with this type of stabilisation operations
Dari mana para dewa berasal – dan berapa biaya untuk melahirkan mereka?. Dalam Mempraktikkan Sekte yang Aman F. LeRon Shults berpendapat pentingnya "pembicaraan" tentang penyebab dan konsekuensi berpartisipasi dalam sekte agama. Untuk bertahan hidup dan berkembang sebagai spesies sosial, kita manusia kemungkinan akan terus membutuhkan semacam sekte (serta seks) untuk waktu yang cukup lama. Ta…
