Soil Nutrients and Soil Carbon Storage : Modulators and Mechanisms
It is well recognized that the capacity of soils to sequester carbon (C) is strongly influenced by nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) availability because of the strong stoichiometric links between these biogeochemical cycles. Human disturbance (e.g., deposition, fertilization, and mining), has, and continue to have, caused large imbalances between the biogeochemical cycles and changing nutrient avai

Degradation of chylomicron remnant cholesteryl ester by rat hepatocyte monolayers. Inhibition by chloroquine and colchicine
What do healthcare professionals need to turn risk models for type 2 diabetes into usable computerized clinical decision support systems? Lessons learned from the MOSAIC project
Background: To understand user needs, system requirements and organizational conditions towards successful design and adoption of Clinical Decision Support Systems for Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) care built on top of computerized risk models. Methods: The holistic and evidence-based CEHRES Roadmap, used to create eHealth solutions through participatory development approach, persuasive design techniques
Method for producing cyclic carbonates
Linear or cyclic carbonates as potential monomers for isocyanate-free polyurethanes and polycarbonates were prepared from polyols and dialkylcarbonatesor diphenyl carbonates. This invention was developed to produce linear or cyclic carbonates with or without using catalysts. Polyol compounds were reacted with carbonates such as dimethylcarbonate and diethylcarbonate to produce thecorresponding lin

Analysis of complexes formed by small gold nanoparticles in low concentration in cell culture media
New nanomaterials are constantly developed with applications in everything from cosmetics to high tech electronics. Assessing their biological impact has been done by analysis of their adsorbed protein corona, in vitro cell assays, and larger scale ecotoxicological studies. This has proved to be a huge challenge due to the wide range of available nanomaterials and their unpredictable behaviour in
Aquatic environment monitoring using a drone-based fluorosensor
A drone-based system for monitoring of laser-induced fluorescence from the aquatic environment was constructed. Fixed-range remote-sensing demonstration measurements were performed, and field recordings of natural river water fluorescence, oil-slicks as well as dye-marked natural water volumes were taken at drone flying heights of about 10 m. Our fluorosensor, weighing only 1.5 kg, and carried by

Feature analysis and prediction of ice regime in the source region of the Yellow River
The Yellow River is a river where serious ice disasters frequently take place in winter. In recent years, the stable frozen period has decreased and the frequency of intermittent freeze periods has increased. After analysing the main factors influencing the ice regime, the prediction factors can be selected. Using multiple linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods, this p
Second Primary Cancers in Patients with Invasive and In Situ Squamous Cell Skin Carcinoma, Kaposi Sarcoma, and Merkel Cell Carcinoma : Role for Immune Mechanisms?
Second primary cancers (SPCs) are becoming a common cancer entity, which may interfere with survival in relatively benign first primary cancers. We examined the hypothesis that immune dysfunction may contribute to SPCs by assessing SPCs associated with known immune responsive skin cancers, invasive and in situ squamous cell carcinoma, Kaposi sarcoma, and Merkel cell carcinoma. Cancers were identif
Online validation of combined mood induction procedures
Film clips, music, and self-referential statements (termed Velten, after their originator) have been successfully used to temporarily induce sadness and happiness. However, there is little research on the effectiveness of these procedures combined, particularly in internet-based settings, and whether Velten statements contribute to alter mood beyond the effect of simple instructions to close one’s
Aortic effects of thyroid hormone in male mice
It is well established that thyroid hormones are required for cardiovascular functions; however, the molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood, especially the individual contributions of genomic and non-genomic signalling pathways. In this study, we dissected how thyroid hormones modulate aortic contractility. To test the immediate effects of thyroid hormones on vasocontractility, we use

Securitizing the “Other” in the European Far-Right Imaginary
Europe is in the midst of a generational transformation that is as much rooted in a complex constellation of socio-economic crises, as it is the product of an ideological revolution, championed by the far-right, in which the Western Balkans, in particular, have become a veritable totem for real and imagined problems confronting the EU and “the West” more broadly.
Artificial intelligence-based versus manual assessment of prostate cancer in the prostate gland : a method comparison study
Aim: To test the feasibility of a fully automated artificial intelligence-based method providing PET measures of prostate cancer (PCa). Methods: A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained for automated measurements in 18F-choline (FCH) PET/CT scans obtained prior to radical prostatectomy (RP) in 45 patients with newly diagnosed PCa. Automated values were obtained for prostate volume, maximal
