The effect of ride‐hailing services on public transit usage in China's small‐ and medium‐sized cities: A synthetic control method analysis

IET Smart Cities
With the recent advances in smartphones and Internet technologies, ride‐hailing services (such as Uber and Didi) have emerged and changed the travel modes that residents use.

Determinants of Urban Poverty: The Case of Medium Sized City in Pakistan [PDF]

The Pakistan Development Review, 2015
The process of urbanisation has dual impact on the development process of an economy. Initially, it encourages the workers to switch from low productive sector i.e. agriculture to high productive sectors like services and manufacturing [Becker, et al. (1994)].

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Nuclear pore links Fob1‐dependent rDNA damage relocation to lifespan control

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Damaged rDNA accumulates at a specific perinuclear interface that couples nucleolar escape with nuclear envelope association. Nuclear pores at this site help inhibit Fob1‐induced rDNA instability. This spatial organization of damage handling supports a functional link between nuclear architecture, rDNA stability, and replicative lifespan in yeast.

Wired Cities — Opportunities for small and medium sized cities on the Information Highway [PDF]

, 1996
Certainly one of the most fascinating developments in a world economy whose basic productive infrastructure is made up of information flows and communication media, are cities and regions becoming the “critical agents” of the economic development. Since regions and cities are more flexible in adapting to changing conditions of markets, technologies and

Extended urbanization in small and medium-sized cities: The case of Cirebon, Indonesia [PDF]

Habitat International, 2014
Although urbanization in smaller cities is arguably not imperative, the future of urban living is no longer expected to be principally in mega-cities. People increasingly live in intermediate and smaller cities, in line with the proportion of people residing in urban areas, which is also gradually rising. Smaller cities in Indonesia, like other smaller

C2α‐carbanion‐protonating glutamate discloses tradeoffs between substrate accommodation and reaction rate in actinobacterial 2‐hydroxyacyl‐CoA lyase

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Enzymes of the 2‐hydroxyacyl‐CoA lyase group catalyze the condensation of formyl‐CoA with aldehydes or ketones. Thus, by structural adaptation of active sites, practically any pharmaceutically and industrially important 2‐hydroxyacid could be biotechnologically synthesized. Combining crystal structure analysis, active site mutations and kinetic assays,

Effective per capita municipal expenditures correlated with population changes in small and medium-sized cities in Japan

Journal of Urban Management
In recent years, urban policy-makers have been urged to adopt the development of urban policies for shrinking cities from an urban management perspective.

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Air Pollution in Medium-Sized Mexican Cities

Asian Journal of Environment & Ecology, 2023
Medium-sized cities are in the population range of between 500,000 and one million inhabitants. Despite the importance of large cities, the greatest urban growth occurs in medium and small cities. During the last century these cities enjoyed acceptable air quality, however from the last years of the last century and the two decades of this century the ...
