Frequency of Tongue Cleaning Impacts the Human Tongue Microbiome Composition and Enterosalivary Circulation of Nitrate
(2019-03-01)
The oral microbiome has the potential to provide an important symbiotic function in
human blood pressure physiology by contributing to the generation of nitric oxide
(NO), an essential cardiovascular signaling molecule. ...
Groundwater discharge to the western Antarctic coastal ocean
(2019)
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) measurements have been limited along the Antarctic coast, although groundwater discharge is becoming recognized as an important process in the Antarctic. Quantifying ...
Healthcare interprofessional team members' perspectives on human caring: A directed content analysis study
(2019-01-10)
Objectives:
As Watson's Human Caring Theory continues to evolve and guide the discipline of nursing, the challenge is to find ways to integrate it into practice. The purpose of this study is to describe interprofessional ...
Ground state modulations in the CP N−1 model
(2019-10-16)
In this work we examine a system consisting of a confined one-dimensional arrangement of atoms that
we describe by using the 2-dimensional CPN−1 model, restricted to an interval and at finite temperature.
We develop a ...
Diverse Misfolded Conformational Strains and Cross-seeding of Misfolded Proteins Implicated in Neurodegenerative Diseases
(2019-07-09)
Numerous neurodegenerative diseases including prion, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are characterized by accumulation of protein aggregates in brain. Prion disease is unique in that the natively folded prion protein ...
Economic Impact of Early‑in‑Hospital Diagnosis and Initiation of Eculizumab in Atypical Haemolytic Uraemic Syndrome
(2019-12-12)
Background
Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare, potentially life-threatening condition caused by dysregulation of the complement pathway. Eculizumab is currently the only approved treatment for this ...
Genome-Wide Identification and Analysis of Class III Peroxidases in Allotetraploid Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) and their Responses to PK Deficiency
(2019-06-21)
Class III peroxidases (PODs), commonly known as secretable class III plant peroxidases, are plant-specific enzymes that play critical roles in not only plant growth and development but also the responses to biotic and ...
Diffusing an Innovation: Clinician Perceptions of Continuous Predictive Analytics Monitoring in Intensive Care
(2019-03-18)
Background The purpose of this article is to describe neonatal intensive care unit
clinician perceptions of a continuous predictive analytics technology and how those
perceptions influenced clinician adoption. Adopting ...
Development of a robust nonlinear pitch angle controller for a redesigned 5MW wind turbine blade tip
(2019-01-23)
Power in wind turbines are traditionally controlled by varying the pitch angle at high wind speeds in region 3 of the wind turbine operation. The pitch angles controllers are normally driven by electrical or hydraulic ...
Developing high performance concrete for precast/prestressed concrete industry
(2019-10-10)
High performance concrete (HPC) is a new class of concrete that has superior characteristics compared to conventional concrete. Despite of its superior characteristics, HPC is not widely used in local and international ...
