The population growth is causing an increase in the generation of effluents (mainly organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) and agro-industrial waste), which is an old problem in agro-industrial countries such as Brazil. Contrastingly, it is possible to add value to these residual biomasses (residues) through the application of new…[Read more]

Patient-Powered Research Networks (PPRNs) are US-based registry infrastructures co-created by advocacy groups, patient research partners, academic investigators, and other healthcare stakeholders. Patient-Powered Research Networks collect information directly from patients to conduct and disseminate the results of patient-centered/powered research…[Read more]

Analogously, we calculated CAZyme “Function;Family” profile-similarities among 95 Aspergillus and Penicillium species to form an alignment-free, EPR-based dendrogram. This revealed a stunning congruence between EPR categorization and phylogenetic/taxonomic grouping of the Aspergilli and Penicillia. Our analysis suggests EPR grouping of fungi to be…[Read more]

As there are some differences in the pathophysiology of absence epilepsy between animal models and humans, the development of new animal models is necessary to understand better the epileptogenic process and, or discover novel therapies for this disorder.

The validity of genetic models of absence epilepsy would motivate the researchers to focus…[Read more]

1-6 MPa. For comparison purposes, a reworked Van Der Wijk model (RVDM) was used in the same method and compared to the MVDM. The latter was more accurate than the RVDM with AAD% values of 8.88, 8.02, and 5.07 in predicting the viscosity of the three mixtures of 25, 32.5, and 50% bitumen with light oil. On the other hand, the RVDM had AAD% values…[Read more]

Inflammation is one of major contributors of diabetic osteoporosis. Adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) show great potential to inhibit inflammation. We investigated the anti-osteoporosis role of AD-MSCs-derived exosomes in diabetic osteoporosis and the underlying molecular mechanism. Cellular and animal diabetic osteoporosis models…[Read more]

The pooled prevalence of malnutrition among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 was 49.11% (95% CI 31.67 to 66.54). The odd of mortality among patients COVID-19 with malnutrition was 10 times more likely as compared to those who were well-nourished.

The prevalence of malnutrition and mortality associated with malnutrition among COVID-19…[Read more]
