Combined approach to strategic analysis of the financial condition of organizations

Вестник Северо-Кавказского федерального университета
Introduction. The matrix approach is one of the common analytical tools in economic science. Its application is not very limited, and it serves as a supplement to a number of other analytical tools.

Extracellular polymeric substances, a key element in understanding biofilm phenotype

AIMS Microbiology, 2018
One of the key elements in the establishment and maintenance of the biofilm structure and properties is the extracellular matrix. The extracellular matrix is composed of water and extracellular polymeric substances (EPS): primarily polysaccharides ...

Hilbert space renormalization for the many-electron problem [PDF]

, 2015
Renormalization is a powerful concept in the many-body problem. Inspired by the highly successful density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm, and the quantum chemical graphical representation of configuration space, we introduce a new ...

STAT3 expression is reduced in cardiac pericytes in HFpEF and its loss reduces cellular adhesion and induces pericyte senescence

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) accounts for half of the heart failure cases. It is characterised by microvascular dysfunction, associated with reduced pericyte coverage and diminished STAT3 expression in pericytes. Loss of STAT3 impairs pericyte adhesion, promotes senescence, and activates a pro‐fibrotic gene program.

Extraction and Characterization of Sponge Gourd Outer Skin Fiber

Journal of Natural Fibers, 2023
Plant-derived natural fibers have recently been used as a promising reinforcement in polymer matrix composites. Fibers from the inner sponge of the luffa cylindrica fruit have been the subject of several studies as reinforcement in various polymer resins.

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

Macromodel of interfacial transition layer in ceramic matrix composites

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The purpose of the study is to create a macromodel of interfacial transition layer in ceramic matrix composites. Chemical and mineralogical compositions were investigated by means of X-ray fluorescence analysis and X-ray diffractometry, ceramic and ...

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Carleman linearization approach for chemical kinetics integration toward quantum computation [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
The Harrow, Hassidim, Lloyd (HHL) algorithm is a quantum algorithm expected to accelerate solving large-scale linear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). To apply the HHL to non-linear problems such as chemical reactions, the system must be linearized.
