ABSTRACT Background Asthenozoospermia is a significant contributing factor to male infertility. Accumulating evidence indicates that impaired sperm motility is closely linked to dysregulated microRNA expression during spermatogenesis. Seminal plasma exosomes are enriched with diverse microRNAs, which play pivotal roles in modulating sperm motility, the

Liquefaction resistance of partially saturated soils from CPTs [PDF]
In this paper an experimental methodology to evaluate the undrained cyclic resistance of satu-rated and partially saturated sand from cone penetration tests is presented. The proposed methodology is based on the results of (1) undrained cyclic triaxial tests carried out on fully saturated and partially saturated sand samples and (2) centrifuge cone ...

Permanent Revenue in an Energy‐Exporting Economy: A New Test for Fiscal Equilibrium
ABSTRACT Fiscal disequilibrium arises when permanent expenditures (PEXP) exceed permanent revenue (PREV), a frequent risk in energy‐exporting economies reliant on volatile windfall revenues. However, existing research lacks a clear measure of these concepts and an empirical test for fiscal equilibrium.
