Article Abstract

In this paper, a third harmonic was used to investigate microstructural changes in Al6061-T6 due to different fatigue cycles and a relationship between fatigue cycle and third order nonlinearity has been observed. Piezoelectric measurement harmonic generation technique was applied for the specimens with 0%, 55%, 75% and 85% fatigue cycles, respectively. The results shows that the third order harmonics gradually increased up to 55% and rapidly decreased after wards, it was attributed to the behavior of dislocation, dislocation-precipitation interaction and voids with increasing fatigue cycle. Further, it was verified with scanning electron microscope (SEM). We also observed that third order nonlinearity is more sensitive to small change in area of fraction of voids than second order nonlinearity after 55% fatigue life and could be a good candidate to investigate Al6061-T6 specimen with voids.

Objective: To analyze the filum terminale (FT) of children with tethered cord syndrome (TCS) and aborted fetuses without neurological disorders in order to investigate the expression of significantly differentially expressed proteins in the FT under both pathological and physiological conditions.

Methods: According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 35 FT samples were selected, and the samples were subjected to immunohistochemistry and H&E staining. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance, and P < 0.

Background: In order to improve the outcomes of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), access to and quality of comprehensive acute and chronic care services in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) must be improved.

Objectives: To identify and summarise the characteristics of models of care for T1DM in children and adolescents in LMIC.

Search Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), and the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Index Medicus from inception to 11 December 2023 without restrictions.

Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) are important treatments for EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the first and second generation EGFR-TKI face clinical limitations due to acquired resistance, such as the T790M mutation. Irreversible EGFR-TKI can significantly prolong the survival of patients by enhancing the inhibition of drug-resistant mutations through the covalent binding mechanism.

We model Auger spectra using second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation (MP2) theory combined with complex-scaled basis functions. For this purpose, we decompose the complex MP2 energy of the core-hole state into contributions from specific decay channels and propose a corresponding equation-of-motion (EOM) method for computing the doubly ionized final states of Auger decay. These methods lead to significant savings in computational cost compared to our recently developed approaches based on coupled-cluster theory [F.

More than a third of patients with glioblastoma experience tumor progression during adjuvant therapy. In this study, we performed a high-throughput drug repurposing screen of FDA-approved agents capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier in order to find agents to counteract acquired or inherent glioma cell resistance to temozolomide-associated cytotoxicity. We identified the cholesterol processing inhibitor, lomitapide, as a potential chemosensitizer in glioblastoma.
