QCM Analysis for Two-Step Adsorption of Albumin and Fibronectin on Zirconia Surface by Masatsugu Hirota, Tohru Hayakawa

“…The adsorbed amounts of Fn or Alb were calculated by observing the decrease in frequency, and the apparent reaction rate, kobs, was obtained through the curve fitting of frequency shift against the adsorption time. No significant difference was observed in the adsorbed amounts of Fn and Alb between the Fn-Alb and Alb-Fn series (P>0.05). …”

Predictors of Neonatal Mortality in Ethiopia: A Comprehensive Review of Follow-Up Studies by Derara Girma, Hiwot Dejene, Leta Adugna

“…Accordingly, sociodemographic predictors such as residence, distance from the health facility, and maternal age; service delivery-related predictors such as no ANC follow-up, not taking iron-folic acid supplementation during pregnancy, and no PNC visit; neonate-related predictors such as low birth weight, extreme prematurity/preterm, and low APGAR score; pregnancy and childbirth-related predictors such as birth interval<18 months, twin pregnancy, and time of rupture of membrane>12 hours; and maternal-related predictors such as maternal HIV infection, maternal childbirth-related complications, and maternal near-miss were stated to increase a likelihood of newborn death in Ethiopia. …”

Microgrid Islanding Detection Using D-PMU and Phase Angle Analysis of Negative Sequence Impedance by Asim Chaulagain, Ramakrishna Gokaraju, Nurul Chowdhury, Krish Narendra

“…The method involves examining the changes in the negative sequence impedance angle over time. Unlike past literature that uses only the phase angles of voltage and current sequence components for islanding detection, this method is more effective, as the phase angle of impedance captures the overall effects of resistance and reactance, which offers a clearer understanding of electrical behavior during disturbances. …”

Scientific support for the use of psychiatric knowledge in the investigation of crimes against human life and health by D. V. Khoroshun

“…It is established that careful attention has been paid to the study of certain aspects of the appointment of forensic psychiatric and forensic psychological examinations in the investigation of various types of murders, bodily injuries, and domestic violence. At the same time, based on the results of the generalisation of scientific works authored by Ukrainian scholars, it has been determined that the national legal literature does not address the peculiarities of involving specialists in investigative (search) actions in the course of investigation of crimes against life and health of a person, as well as the prospects for implementing non-procedural forms of using specialised knowledge. …”
