Large‐Scale Evaluation of Traditional Chinese Medicines Reveals Potential PPARγ Modulators for Type 2 Diabetes Management

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Identifying novel treatments for diabetic management is always a competitive research topic all over the world. PPAR‐γ is one of the key regulators involved in glucose and lipid metabolism and improves insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis. This study investigated the impacts of 639 traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on PPAR‐γ gene promoter ...

Selection of dune shapes and velocities. Part 1: Dynamics of sand, wind and barchans

open access: yes, 2002
Almost fifty years of investigations of barchan dunes morphology and dynamics is reviewed, with emphasis on the physical understanding of these objects. The characteristics measured on the field (shape, size, velocity) and the physical problems they rise

Adolescents' trajectories of mental health in the MYRIAD trial

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background This study explored adolescent's mental health trajectories over the course of a school‐based mindfulness‐based intervention trial (MYRIAD). It examined whether intervention condition (mindfulness vs. teaching‐as‐usual), individual‐level and contextual‐level factors were associated with different trajectories.

The effects of mindfulness‐based interventions on emotion regulation/dysregulation in people with mental health conditions: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to examine the effects of mindfulness‐based interventions (MBIs) on emotion regulation (ER) and emotion dysregulation (ED) in people with any mental health condition. Methods Following a pre‐registered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42024618605), we searched multiple databases (Web of ...

Modelling a Dune Field

open access: yes, 2002
We present a model to describe the collective motion of barchan dunes in a field. Our model is able to reproduce the observation that a typical dune stays confined within a stripe.

Perceived Educational Value of a Self‐Developed 3D‐Printed Pediatric Dentistry Simulator

open access: yesJournal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To design and assess a 3D‐printed pediatric dentistry simulator and to evaluate its perceived educational value and realism through student and expert feedback. Methods A maxillary simulator that is mountable on phantom heads was developed and produced by desktop stereolithography with single‐use inserts, enabling proximal caries ...

Methane storms as a driver of Titan's dune orientation

open access: yes, 2015
Titan's equatorial regions are covered by eastward propagating linear dunes. This direction is opposite to mean surface winds simulated by Global Climate Models (GCMs), which are oriented westward at these latitudes, similar to trade winds on Earth ...

Tracking the Pulse of the Dunes: Seasonal Metabolic Responses of Liolaemus arambarensis to Climatic Variability

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seasonal environmental fluctuations profoundly influence ectothermic vertebrates, regulating their physiology, metabolism, and life cycles. This study investigated the metabolic and morphometric seasonal dynamics of the subtropical sand lizard Liolaemus arambarensis, an endangered species endemic to the coastal dunes of southern Brazil.

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

Internationalization, Dynamic Capabilities, and Innovation: Unveiling the Impact on Hotel Chain Performance

open access: yesStrategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The indirect effect of dynamic capabilities on performance has recently emerged as a topic of significant interest and debate in management research. In turbulent environments such as the international hotel industry, where companies constantly innovate to improve their performance, it is important to consider the effect of these dynamic ...
