We compared blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability to glucose between quiet wakefulness and rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep to assess whether changes in BBB permeability play a role in coupling glucose supply to the physiologic ...

An overdamped three-layer model with incommensurate structure consisting of two harmonic chains which both move over the substrate potential is studied in the presence of an external (Formula presented.) driving force. The ...

With the aim of assessing whether Au(iii) compounds with pincer type ligands might be utilized as potential antitumor agents, three new monofunctional Au(iii) complexes of the general formula [Au(N-N'-N)Cl]Cl-2, where ...

The aim of the present study was to develop a new method to reconstruct damaged metatarsophalangeal joint (MTPJ) of Homo naledi's fossil and to deepen the understanding of the first metatarsal head (FMH) morphological ...

The paper presents results of experimental investigation performed in order to examine kinetics of loose biomass combustion in vertical tube reactor. The investigation conducted included continuous measurement of the fuel ...

The interaction of wake-sleep states and acoustic stimulation on cardiovascular regulation was studied on rats implanted with electroencephalogram and electromyogram electrodes and an arterial catheter. Mild acoustic stimuli ...

We investigate the electron states and optical absorption in square- and hexagonal-shaped two-dimensional (2D) HgTe quantum dots and quantum rings in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. The electronic structure ...

In this study, the mixing performance of coupled mixing action of the Komax static mixer (which is used as a pre-mixer) and rotating drum (applied as the final mixer) was explored in the maize meal mixing operation. The ...

Broad emission with a full and continuous color spectrum realized by crystal engineering is extensively desired to simulate natural sunlight and improve the white color quality. Herein, new insight into the modulation of ...
