Marangoni flow in freely suspended liquid films [PDF]
We demonstrate controlled material transport driven by temperature gradients in thin freely suspended smectic films. The films with submicrometer thicknesses and lateral extensions of several millimeters were studied in microgravity during suborbital ...

mTORC2 sustains thermogenesis via Akt-induced glucose uptake and glycolysis in brown adipose tissue [PDF]
Activation of non-shivering thermogenesis (NST) in brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been proposed as an anti-obesity treatment. Moreover, cold-induced glucose uptake could normalize blood glucose levels in insulin-resistant patients.

Platelets Apoptosis And Clearance In The Presence Of Sodium Octanoate During Storage Of Platelet Concentrate At 4˚C [PDF]
Objective Platelet (PLT) storage at 4˚C has several benefits, however, it is accompanied by increased clearance of PLTs after transfusion. In this study, we evaluated the potential of sodium octanoate (SO) for reducing apoptosis and clearance rate of ...

Response of Saddled Prominent (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) Pupae to Desiccation, Cold Treatment, and Post-Cold Treatment Incubation Temperature [PDF]
Saddled prominent, Heterocampa guttivitta, pupae were placed at 1.5oC for 50 to 200 days, then incubated at one of four post-cold temperatures ranging from 10° to 26.7°C. Adults emerged from pupae exposed to all cold treatment periods.

Comparison of the Effect of Cold Dialysate versus Stretching Exercises on Severity of Restless Legs Syndrome in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis: A Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is prevalent among patients undergoing hemodialysis. This research suggests that cold dialysis solution and stretching exercises are effective approaches reducing RLS; however, they should be adopted according to ...

Increasing occurrence of cold and warm extremes during the recent global warming slowdown. [PDF]
The recent levelling of global mean temperatures after the late 1990s, the so-called global warming hiatus or slowdown, ignited a surge of scientific interest into natural global mean surface temperature variability, observed temperature biases, and ...

Tapping Task Performance on Smartphones in Cold Temperature
We present a study that quantifies the effect of cold temperature on smartphone input performance, particularly on tapping tasks. Our results show that smartphone input performance decreases when completing tapping tasks in cold temperatures.
