Contribution of Arginine Catabolic Mobile Element and Copper and Mercury Resistance Element in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus: A Vantage Point by Parya Shokrollahi, Alka Hasani, Mohammad Aghazadeh, Mohammad Yousef Memar, Akbar Hasani, Maryam Zaree, Mohammad Ahangarzadeh Rezaee, Javid Sadeghi

“…The clone harbors several mobile genetic elements (MGEs) including, arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) and copper and mercury resistance genes (COMER), accomplished by horizontal gene transfer from S. epidermidis. Evidence suggests that ACME and COMER have a more prominent role in enhancing biofilm capacity and ultimately persistent infections. …”

Pancreatic Cancer: Molecular, Biochemical, Chemopreventive, and Therapeutic Aspects by Juan Iovanna, José Luis Neira

“…For a clinically significant effect to be achieved, treatment strategies should either be in the form of (1) a horizontal approach, in which several oncogenic pathways (as those described in this series of reviews) are inhibited; or (2) a vertical approach, whereby multiple levels of a major pathway are targeted. …”

Benchmarking passive-microwave-satellite-derived freeze–thaw datasets by A. Bartsch, X. Muri, M. Hetzenecker, K. Rautiainen, H. Bergstedt, J. Wuite, T. Nagler, D. Nicolsky

“…We developed a robust freeze–thaw (FT) detection approach that is suitable for tundra regions, applying a constant threshold to the combined C-band VV (vertically sent and received) and VH (vertically sent and horizontally received) polarization ratios. The achieved performance (91.8 %) is similar to previous methods which apply an empirical local threshold to single-polarized VV backscatter data.…”

Membrane Transport of Nonelectrolyte Solutions in Concentration Polarization Conditions: Hr Form of the Kedem–Katchalsky–Peusner Equations by Kornelia M. Batko, Andrzej Ślęzak

“…In this paper, the Kedem–Katchalsky equations in matrix form for nonhomogeneous ternary nonelectrolyte solutions were applied for interpretation of transport through the membrane mounted in horizontal plane. Coefficients Hijr, Hijr, and Hdetr=detHr (for nonhomogeneous solutions), Hij and Hdet=detH (for homogeneous solutions) (i, j ∈ {1, 2, 3}, r = A, B), ψij=HijA−HijB/Hij, and ψdet=HdetA−HdetB/Hdet were calculated on the basis of experimentally determined coefficients (Lp, σ1, σ2ω11, ω22, ω21, ω12, ζ1r, and ζ2r) for glucose in aqueous ethanol solutions and two configurations of the membrane system. …”

Study on the evolution law of the ‘Butterfly-type’ plastic zone in the surrounding rock of deep dynamic pressure roadway by Yiwen Liang, Jianqiang Jin, Wenhua Zha, Tao Xu, Wenbo Cheng

“…The −850 m roadway of the Qujiang mine is laid flat longitudinally under the 805 working face and coal pillar, and under the influence of the mining movement of the upper working face and the pre-stressing pressure of the coal pillar, the periphery of the roadway is no longer a pure non-uniform stress field, but a non-uniform stress field with both vertical and horizontal dynamic pressure. Based on the Hoek–Brown strength criterion, the unified strength theory is modified and the nonlinear unified strength theory of rock is established by comprehensively considering the intermediate principal stress, rock properties and rock structure. …”
