Overall, when the PA and SA distribution mode was determined, the total airflow rate of 184 L/min was the optimal supply airflow rate. Under the same total airflow rate, the burning and emission performances were better when the primary and secondary airflows were similar, namely from 46 to 64. This study provided core information about stove air…[Read more]

to ensure reliability and validity of ISNCSCI examinations in clinical routine and research. Albeit being practiced in the instructional courses, the benefit of hands-on training still needs to be systematically evaluated in future studies.

We report that human fASM express core clock machinery (PER1, PER2, CRY1, ARNTL/BMAL1, CLOCK) that is responsive to dexamethasone (Dex) and altered by O2. Disruption of the clock via siRNA-mediated PER1 or ARNTL knockdown alters store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) and [Ca2+]i response to histamine in hyperoxia. Effects of O2 on [Ca2+]i are rescued…[Read more]

The concise syntheses of two alkylated hydroquinone natural products, violaceoids A and C, were accomplished by a protecting-group-free method employing the commercially available 2,5-dihydroxybenzaldehyde as the starting material. The key strategy of the syntheses is the utilization of alkenylboronic acid as both the coupling and temporary…[Read more]
