The Antidiabetic Potential of Alpha‐Mangostin: A Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Alpha‐mangostin is a compound from the pericarp of Garcinia mangostana. The antidiabetic effects of alpha‐mangostin include enhancing insulin secretion, improving glucose uptake through GLUT receptor upregulation, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting wound healing, reducing HbA1C, reducing HOMA‐IR index, and decreased mRNA expressions ...

Radiative Hybrid Nanofluid Flow Over a Porous Riga Surface: A Fuzzy–ANN Modeling Approach

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a fuzzy–ANN model to investigate the nonlinear thermal transport in a tangent hyperbolic (Tanh) hybrid nanofluid flow past a porous Riga surface, considering the effects of Rosseland diffusion, chemical reactions, and internal volumetric heating.

Investigation on law of oil production by spontaneous imbibition and water flooding in ultra-low permeability sandstone reservoirs

Youqi dizhi yu caishoulu
Pressure drive-based water injection technology has solved the problem of “no injection and no production” in ultra-low permeability sandstone reservoirs in Shengli Oilfield， but the law of oil-water displacement and the percentage of oil production in ...

Getting (un)wasted: How planning failures generate consumer waste across resources: Time, money, goods, and energy

Consumer Psychology Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Past research suggests that people exhibit robust waste aversion. However, many consumers routinely feel that they waste not only goods but also time, money, energy, and emotion and would be hard‐pressed to imagine their lives otherwise. Why does consumer waste persist? In this paper, we first propose a definition for consumer waste.

CD14 Plays a Critical Role in Pain and Inflammation Across Multiple Models of Post‐traumatic Osteoarthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective We employed global genetic deletion of CD14 and intra‐articular CD14 blockade across multiple murine osteoarthritis (OA) models that vary in severity of pathology and rate of progression to test the hypothesis that CD14 inhibition attenuates synovial inflammation and associated pain during disease progression.

Dissecting the dissection laboratory: Elements for designing a human anatomy laboratory

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The human anatomy dissection laboratory is a critical component of anatomical and medical education. Development, maintenance, and stocking of these laboratory spaces have unique demands, with all of the challenges in running a laboratory with Biosafety Laboratory Level 2 (BSL‐2) classification, housing a large volume of tissues saturated with

A mathematical determination of the pore size distribution and fractal dimension of a porous sample using spontaneous imbibition dynamics theory

Journal of Petroleum Exploration and Production Technology, 2018
Wallace sandstone has been extensively used by the construction industry for a long time in Nova Scotia. Apart from oxide analysis and a few strength-related parameter data found on some websites, petrophysical data regarding pore-sized distribution and ...

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.

Effect of Wetting-Phase Viscosity on Cocurrent Spontaneous Imbibition

, 2016
Spontaneous imbibition is an important mechanism for oil recovery in naturally fractured reservoirs. Understanding the effects of fluid viscosity on spontaneous imbibition is important for the design of injection projects and the prediction of reservoir ...
