Wave Propagation in Rotating Functionally Graded Microbeams Reinforced by Graphene Nanoplatelets
Molecules, 2021 This paper presents a study on wave propagation in rotating functionally graded (FG) microbeams reinforced by graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs). The graphene nanoplatelets (GPLs) are considered to distribute in the diameter direction of the micro-beam in a ...

Mycobacterium abscessus glycopeptidolipid prevents respiratory epithelial TLR2 signaling as measured by HβD2 gene expression and IL-8 release. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Mycobacterium abscessus has emerged as an important cause of lung infection, particularly in patients with bronchiectasis. Innate immune responses must be highly effective at preventing infection with M. abscessus because it is a ubiquitous environmental

Vestibular Patient Journey: Insights From Vestibular Disorders Association (VeDA) Registry
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Vestibular symptoms impose a high burden of disability. Understanding real‐world diagnostic and treatment pathways can identify care gaps and guide interventions. We aimed to characterize symptom profiles, diagnostic trends, provider involvement, and treatment patterns in vestibular disorders.
