Protective Effect of Methyl Sulfonyl Methane on the Progression of Age-Induced Bone Loss by Regulating Oxidative Stress-Mediated Bone Resorption

open access: yesAntioxidants
Aging is associated with detrimental bone loss, often leading to fragility fractures, which may be driven by oxidative stress. In this study, the outcomes of comparing the differences among young, adult and aged C57BL/6J mice found that the trabecular ...

Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Animalopters - towards a new dimension of flight mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesTransport, 2002
Recently, it has been recognised that flapping wing propulsion can be more efficient than conventional propel­lers if applied to very small-scale vehicles, so-called MAVs (micro air vehicles).

Vehicular traffic effects on elk and white-tailed deer behavior near wildlife underpasses.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Roads fragment animal populations, vehicles kill and injure animals, and traffic may affect animal behavior. Mitigation efforts (e.g., wildlife underpasses) are constructed to prevent fragmentation and reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions.

Scaling of soaring seabirds and its implication for the maximum size of flying pterosaurs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The flight ability of animals is restricted by the scaling effects imposed by physical and physiological factors. In comparisons of the power available from muscle and the mechanical power required to fly, theoretical studies have predicted that the ...

Mapping the Social Network Structure and Composition of Black Individuals With Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Conditions

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Our objective was to describe the social networks of Black individuals with rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions and understand the clustering of health‐related behaviors to inform future community‐based, peer‐led interventions. Methods We used an adapted Personal Network Survey for Clinical Research (PERSNET) to map the personal social ...

Spray Dried Animal Plasma as an Alternative to Antibiotics in Weanling Pigs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Piglet health at weaning is compromised due to several stress factors. Following the ban of antibiotic growth promoters new alternatives are required to control these problems. This paper reviews the evidence available for the use of spray dried animal

Observer‐Based Adaptive Event‐Triggered Tracking Control for Fuzzy TS Systems With Premise Mismatch

open access: yesInternational Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.
This paper presents an adaptive logistic event‐triggered observer‐based tracking controller for Takagi‐Sugeno fuzzy systems under constrained inputs and network delays. Leveraging a hybrid LMI and Secretary Bird Optimization approach, this strategy significantly minimizes communication overhead and computational burden while ensuring optimal reference ...
