Sensor-based measurement of fear avoidance and movement patterns of healthy individuals with mechanically induced lower back pain during movement tasks: Study protocol for an experimental non-interventional study. [PDF]
BackgroundChronic primary low back pain (CPLBP) is highly prevalent and associated with physical impairment and psychological distress. Fear avoidance (FA) is one contributing factor in the development and persistence of CPLBP.

The Back Stress Behavior Study Analyzed in Residual Stress of Welded Naval Plates in Different Lamination Directions and Different Thermal Contributions [PDF]
The lamination process adds the anisotropy characteristic in the final product. This anisotropy influences the yield strength according to the direction in question, the difference between the value of the yield tension in one direction and the value of ...

A pileup of screw dislocations against an inclined bimetallic interface [PDF]
Pileups of screw dislocations against an inclined bimetallic interface are considered. It is assumed that differently oriented pileups are either under the same remote uniform loading, or under the same resolved shear stress along the pileup direction ...

Replication stress: getting back on track [PDF]
The replication-stress response enables the DNA replication machinery to overcome DNA lesions or intrinsic replication-fork obstacles, and it is essential to ensure faithful transmission of genetic information to daughter cells. Multiple replication stress–response pathways have been identified in recent years, thus raising questions about the specific

Effective and back stresses evolution upon cycling a high-entropy alloy
We report on the effective and back stresses evolution of a CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) by partitioning its cyclic hysteresis loops. It was found that the cyclic stress response of the HEA predominantly originates from the back stress evolution ...

Diabetic Complications and Oxidative Stress: A 20-Year Voyage Back in Time and Back to the Future [PDF]
Twenty years have passed since Brownlee and colleagues proposed a single unifying mechanism for diabetic complications, introducing a turning point in this field of research. For the first time, reactive oxygen species (ROS) were identified as the causal link between hyperglycemia and four seemingly independent pathways that are involved in the ...
