The Chylomicron: Relationship to Atherosclerosis by Gerald H. Tomkin, Daphne Owens

“…Inhibition of cholesterol absorption with Ezetimibe, an inhibitor of Niemann Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1-L1), the major regulator of cholesterol absorption, increases cholesterol synthesis and hence the value of adding an inhibitor of cholesterol absorption to an inhibitor of cholesterol synthesis. Apo B48, the structural protein of the chylomicron particle, is synthesised in abundance so that the release of these particles is dependent on the amount of cholesterol and triglyceride available in the intestine. …”

Reliability Analysis of Damaged Beam Spectral Element with Parameter Uncertainties by M. R. Machado, J. M. C. Dos Santos

“…The paper examines the influence of uncertainty parameters on the wave propagation responses at high frequencies for a damaged beam structure in the structural reliability context. The reliability analyses were performed using the perturbation method, First-Order Reliability Method (FORM), and response surface method (RSM) which were compared with Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) under the spectral element method environment. …”

Les hésitations de la parole autorisée durant la crise de la zone euro by Philippe Légé, Jaime Marques Pereira

“…We attribute this incapacity to a cognitive path-dependence, leading to conceive the way out of the crisis by means of a new “governance” supposed to guarantee at last budgetary rigor and structural reforms. The analysis of the evolution of the discourses reveals that this inertia of the doctrine implied a sequence of stutterings in the “authoritative statements” issued by policy-makers. …”

High Temperature Deformation Behavior of 8090 Al-Li Alloy by Woo Young Jung, Tae Kwon Ha

“…High temperature deformation behavior, especially the superplasticity of an 8090 Al-Li alloy, was studied within the recent framework of the internal variable theory of structural superplasticity. In this study, a series of load relaxation tests were conducted at various temperatures ranging from 200°C to 530°C to obtain the flow curves of log ε˙ versus log ε. …”

Analysis of the Travel Intent for Park and Ride Based on Perception by Huanmei Qin, Hongzhi Guan, Guang Zhang

“…This paper, based on the park and ride behavior survey in Beijing, will analyze the relationship between the perception of the influencing factors and the behavior intent for park and ride by using structural equation modeling. The conclusions suggest that the park and ride choice for travelers is a passive behavior which means giving up driving the car is mainly caused by the serious traffic congestion. …”
