<p>Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) is a known mediator of inflammation and pain associated with radiculopathy and intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. Soluble TNF receptors (sTNFR) and their analogues are of ...
<p>Background: Spirituality and religious practices can motivate proactive health behavior. Although beliefs and practices may lead to different health behaviors, it is important to recognize the contribution of both to ...
<p>This research analyzes one central question and two supporting questions. First, how do individual and group interactions influence aggregate behavior toward terrorism? Second, how does societal reputation impact ...
<p>A fuel cell is a device that converts chemical energy directly to electricity. Fuel cells have high energy conversion efficiencies with potentially less release of environmental pollutants. Therefore, they are regarded ...
<p>Variations in gene expression are potential risk factors for atherosclerosis, which is one of the most common forms of cardiovascular disease. We performed a localized Pearson correlation test in 372 individuals from ...
<p>A maximum likelihood template fitting procedure is performed by using Upsilon --> mu+mu- events to extract the momentum scale, a scale factor applied to measured momentum, of the CDF detector at Fermilab. The constructed ...
<p>In the vast majority of measured turbomachinery blade flutter occurrences, the response occurs predominately in a single mode. The primary reason for this single-mode flutter is that for turbomachinery applications the ...
<p>In this work, I use case study analysis to examine the response by states to exogenous shifts in international norms. Specifically, I examine the behavior of states when unforeseen technological advances make the norm ...
<p>Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) adsorption was studied in order to determine the influence of natural organic matter (NOM) on the adsorption of two acidic pharmaceutically active compounds (PhACs), clofibric acid and ...
<p>The issue that this paper addresses is how the college coach has abandoned the roles of educator and liaison between athletics and academics. The current era of college was examined using academic analysis, interviews ...
