Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

On mathematical models for Bose-Einstein condensates in optical lattices (expanded version)

, 2008
Our aim is to analyze the various energy functionals appearing in the physics literature and describing the behavior of a Bose-Einstein condensate in an optical lattice. We want to justify the use of some reduced models. For that purpose, we will use the

Strength determination for band-loaded thin cylinders [PDF]

, 2018
Cylindrical shells are often subjected to local inward loads normal to the shell that arise over restricted zones. A simple axisymmetric example is that of the ring-loaded cylinder, in which an inward line load around the circumference causes either ...

Development of Disordered Weight Control Behaviors and Its Progression to Eating Disorders in Canada: A Nationally Representative Microsimulation

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Eating disorders (ED) present a significant health burden to children, adolescents, and young adults globally. Despite the importance of disordered weight control behaviors (DWCB) in ED development, little is known about the progression from DWCB to ED.

Asymmetric synthesis of 2-substituted oxetan-3-ones via metalated SAMP/RAMP hydrazones [PDF]

, 2013
2-Substituted oxetan-3-ones can be prepared in good yields and enantioselectivities (up to 84% ee) by the metalation of the SAMP/RAMP hydrazones of oxetan-3-one, followed by reaction with a range of electrophiles that include alkyl, allyl, and benzyl ...

Radiation Risk in 2D Mammography Screening: A Scoping Review of Modelling Strategies and Emerging AI Applications

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This scoping review examined models estimating long‐term radiation risks from repeated mammography screening. While modelling indicates the risks are low, approaches vary by protocol and vendor. Emerging AI tools show promise for improving personalised risk estimation, though further development is needed for cross‐platform compatibility.

Temperature robustness and viscoelasticity of soy protein‐stabilized palm oil emulsions containing glycerol monostearate and oat fiber

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Most studies of high oil content soy protein‐stabilized emulsions have focused on fluid systems, with limited attention given to the thermo‐mechanical behavior of firm emulsions. This study examined the thermal robustness and mechanical properties of palm oil‐based emulsions stabilized with soy protein isolate, glycerol monostearate
