Global Trends in Risk Factors for Low Back Pain: An Analysis of the Global Burden of Disease Study Data From 1990 to 2021

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The increasing burden associated with low back pain (LBP) is a critical issue. This is a novel analysis of trends in risk factors for LBP aiming to identify risk factors that require further attention or consideration in global policies to reduce the burden of LBP.

The Role of Immune Checkpoint Receptors in Regulating Immune Reactivity in Lupus

Cells, 2019
Immune checkpoint receptors with co-stimulatory and co-inhibitory signals are important modulators for the immune system. However, unrestricted co-stimulation and/or inadequate co-inhibition may cause breakdown of self-tolerance, leading to autoimmunity.

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Butylated caffeic acid: An efficient novel antioxidant

Grasas y Aceites, 2017
A novel antioxidant, butylated caffeic acid (BCA) was rationally designed by adding a tert-butyl group to caffeic acid, which was synthesized at a high yield (36.2%) from 2-methoxy-4-methylphenol by a four-step reaction including Friedel-Crafts ...

Carbon Nanotube 3D Integrated Circuits: From Design to Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
As Moore's law approaches its physical limits, carbon nanotube (CNT) 3D integrated circuits (ICs) emerge as a promising alternative due to the miniaturization, high mobility, and low power consumption. CNT 3D ICs in optoelectronics, memory, and monolithic ICs are reviewed while addressing challenges in fabrication, design, and integration.

Non-extensive Random Matrix Theory - A Bridge Connecting Chaotic and Regular Dynamics [PDF]

Phys. Lett. A 333 (2004) 16-22, 2004
We consider a possible generalization of the random matrix theory, which involves the maximization of Tsallis' $q$-parametrized entropy. We discuss the dependence of the spacing distribution on $q$ using a non-extensive generalization of Wigner's surmises for ensembles belonging to the orthogonal, unitary and symplectic symmetry universal classes.
