Exercise during 14 days of head down tilt bedrest attenuates motor unit impairments in older humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Head‐down tilt bedrest (HDBR) models the effects of mechanical unloading on neuromuscular function. The efficacy of exercise in preserving motor unit (MU) function in older adults during HDBR remains unclear. This study investigated the effects of 14‐day HDBR on MU properties in older adults and the protective role of exercise.

Electromechanical modelling and simulation of human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes predict drug‐induced contractility effects

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A study described in this paper describes a new tool for hiPSC‐CM electromechanical behaviour simulations using mathematical modelling. The model enables in silico assays making drug testing quick, comprehensive and accurate. New hiPSC‐CM models can be used as a platform to integrate in vitro and in silico findings.

Potentiometric Membrane Sensors for the Selective Determination of Memantine Hydrochloride in Pharmaceutical Preparations

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
Three potentiometric sensors responsive to Memantine HCl (MEM) drug are described, characterized, compared and used for drug assessment. The sensors are based on the use of the ion-association complex of (MEM) cation with Flavianate (FA), 5-Nitro ...

Neuronal activity and stress differentially regulate hippocampal and hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormone expression in the immature rat. [PDF]

, 2000
Corticotropin-releasing hormone, a major neuromodulator of the neuroendocrine stress response, is expressed in the immature hippocampus, where it enhances glutamate receptor-mediated excitation of principal cells. Since the peptide influences hippocampal

Distinctive neurophysiological correlates of sound onset and offset perception in humans

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Electroencephalography (EEG) recordings were obtained from participants listening to successive pairs of 1‐2 s noises in a silent background (Study 1) or successive pairs 1‐2 s silent gaps in a noise background (Study 2). Participants heard the same stimuli in the context of either a duration discrimination task (identifying ...

Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Displays as Optical Sensors of Barbiturate Binding

, 2007
The influence on the optical properties of cholesteric liquid crystal displays (LCDs) was examined for neutral molecule binding by mesogen/receptors in the mesomorphic phase. The motivation was to prepare neutral molecule sensors that use a colour change

Nurses’ Adherence to Double‐Checking: A Systematic Review of Influencing Factors, Improvement Strategies, and Their Effectiveness

International Nursing Review, Volume 73, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim This systematic review aims to systematically (1) synthesize factors of nurses’ adherence to double‐checking, (2) identify and describe strategies used to improve adherence, and (3) assess the reported effectiveness of these strategies. Introduction Medication administration errors are a major cause of adverse events.

Graphene oxide enhances SBA-15 ability towards preconcentration as well as determination of barbiturate drug in real samples

Kuwait Journal of Science, 2019
In this study, a simple, sensitive, and high performance method was employed to extract and preconcentration of trace amount of sodium barbiturate drug by using mesoporous silica (SBA-15) modified by graphene oxide (GO).
