ABSTRACT Aims Obesity is characterised by pathological alterations in visceral white adipose tissue (vWAT) that may contribute to the development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). While microRNAs (miRNAs) are key post‐transcriptional regulators, comprehensive human vWAT profiling across metabolic states remains limited.

Particle image velocimetry studies of bubble growth and detachment by high speed photography [PDF]
An understanding of bubble flows is important in the design of process equipment, particularly in the chemical and power industries. In vapour-liquid processes the mass and heat transfer between the phases is dominated by the liquid-vapour interface and ...

Pu-breeding feasibility in PWR [PDF]
This study addresses the issue of alternative pathways for breeding plutonium in a 900 MWe three loop thermal pressurized water reactor (PWR), either fueled with uranium fuel (3.5% U-235) or with mixed fuel (20% MOX). During the operation of a nuclear reactor the in-core neutron flux and the ex-core neutron flux are monitored with flux detectors.

ABSTRACT Recent theoretical work shows that the potential of genetic selection to reduce the prevalence of infectious diseases is much larger than expected from classical quantitative genetic theory, due to indirect genetic effects that arise in the transmission process. However, to fully benefit from these indirect effects, we need to estimate genetic

Most of the light water reactor power plants now operating or under construction use pressurized-water reactor (PWR). They are suffering of relatively low thermal efficiency which is around 33%. This would not only have a negative impact economically but also incurs environmental burden in terms of thermal pollution. In this paper, nuclear steam supply

ABSTRACT Despite evidence that gender‐inclusive language represents genders more equally than generic masculines, it still faces resistance, possibly due to its perceived association with left‐wing politics. This study explores the social meaning of gender‐inclusive language compared with generic masculines in French and German, using four gender ...

ABSTRACT Background The association between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) across life course and its components (abdominal obesity, elevated blood pressure, dyslipidemia, and hyperglycemia) is poorly understood. Methods Three databases were screened for studies published January 2000–February 2024 that examined the ...

How Educational Leaders Think About Intersections of Identities and Disciplinary Learning in Science
ABSTRACT American science education leaders play critical roles in promoting equity in education, but little is known about how they understand everyday classroom interactions where inequities related to intersectionality are evident. This study examines science leaders' sensemaking about a scenario depicting the experiences of a group of American ...
