A Comprehensive NMR Analysis of Serum and Fecal Metabolites in Familial Dysautonomia Patients Reveals Significant Metabolic Perturbations
(MDPI AG, 2023-03)Central metabolism has a profound impact on the clinical phenotypes and penetrance of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD) diseases, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Autism Spectrum ... -
A longitudinal assessment of variability in COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy and psychosocial correlates in a national United States sample
(Elsevier BV, 2023-02)Recent evidence suggests that COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy is not static. In order to develop effective vaccine uptake interventions, we need to understand the extent to which vaccine hesitancy fluctuates and identify factors ... -
This ad’s for you: how personalized SNS advertisements affect the consumer–brand relationship
(Emerald, 2023-03)Purpose. Firms can now access users’ digital histories due to advances in technology and deliver personalized recommendations through social network sites (SNS) such as Facebook that offers advanced targeting options and ... -
Ambipolar Heating of Magnetars
(American Astronomical Society, 2023-03)Magnetars, neutron stars thought to be with ultrastrong magnetic fields of 1014–15 G, are observed to be much hotter than ordinary pulsars with ∼1012 G, and additional heating sources are required. One possibility is heating ... -
Cumulative stressful events and mental health in young adults after 10 years of Wenchuan earthquake: the role of social support
(Informa UK Limited, 2023-03)Background: After a natural disaster, stressful events often continue to accumulate, affecting individuals in a different manner than the original disaster never occurred. However, few studies have examined these associations, ... -
Anti-Biofilm Efficacy of Commonly Used Wound Care Products in In Vitro Settings
(MDPI AG, 2023-03)Considering the prevalence and pathogenicity of biofilms in wounds, this study was designed to evaluate the anti-biofilm capabilities of eight commercially available wound care products using established in vitro assays ... -
Distribution System State Estimation and False Data Injection Attack Detection with a Multi-Output Deep Neural Network
(MDPI AG, 2023-02)Distribution system state estimation (DSSE) has been introduced to monitor distribution grids; however, due to the incorporation of distributed generations (DGs), traditional DSSE methods are not able to reveal the operational ... -
Marriage, Children, and Sex-Based Differences in Physician Hours and Income
(American Medical Association, 2023-03)Importance. A better understanding of the association between family structure and sex gaps in physician earnings and hours worked over the life cycle is needed to advance policies addressing persistent sex disparities. ... -
Evidence of an Absence of Inbreeding Depression in a Wild Population of Weddell Seals (Leptonychotes weddellii)
(MDPI AG, 2023-02)Inbreeding depression can reduce the viability of wild populations. Detecting inbreeding depression in the wild is difficult; developing accurate estimates of inbreeding can be time and labor intensive. In this study, we ... -
The Importance of the Food System For Rural Vitality and Livelihoods In the US Northern Great Plains
(Brandon University, 2023-03)The geopolitical U.S. Northern Great Plains encompass the state areas of Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming. While other parts of the United States have seen considerable outmigration from rural ... -
The integrated nested Laplace approximation applied to spatial log-Gaussian Cox process models
(Informa UK Limited, 2023-04)Spatial point process models are theoretically useful for mapping discrete events, such as plant or animal presence, across space; however, the computational complexity of fitting these models is often a barrier to their ... -
Cardioprotective Effects of a Selective c-Jun N-terminal Kinase Inhibitor in a Rat Model of Myocardial Infarction
(MDPI AG, 2023-02)Activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) is involved in myocardial injury, left ventricular remodeling (LV), and heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects ... -
Intercropping chickpea–flax for yield and disease management
(Wiley, 2023-03)Ascochyta blight (caused by Ascochyta rabiei) is a primary concern of chickpea production worldwide. Intercropping chickpea with a non-host crop has the potential to suppress this disease and improve resource use efficiency ... -
