Research progress of GLP-1RAs in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus by Xu He, Xu He, Xu He, Wei Zhao, Wei Zhao, PeiHang Li, PeiHang Li, YinJiang Zhang, YinJiang Zhang, GuoHua Li, HongYu Su, BiNan Lu, BiNan Lu, ZongRan Pang, ZongRan Pang

“…Because of its structural difference from natural GLP-1, it is not easy to be degraded by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), thus prolonging the action time. GLP-1RAs have been recognized as a new type of hypoglycemic drugs and widely used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). …”

La pédagogie interculturelle : entre multiculturalisme et universalisme by Martine A. Pretceille

“…En effet, le traitement de l’hétérogénéité culturelle suppose d’adosser l’analyse et l’action sur une philosophie à la fois morale et pragmatique au sens où il s’agit de chercher à comprendre des pratiques, des discours et des comportements ancrés non pas dans des catégories culturelles distinctes, homogènes et hermétiques les unes aux autres, mais au contraire dans des processus de métissage et de « créolisation ». …”

Targeted co-delivery nanosystem based on methotrexate, curcumin, and PAMAM dendrimer for improvement of the therapeutic efficacy in cervical cancer by Ayuob Aghanejad, Shiva Kheiriabad, Maryam Ghaffari, Simin Namvar Aghdash, Neda Ghafouri, Jafar Ezzati Nazhad Dolatabadi, Hashem Andishmand, Michael R. Hamblin

“…Abstract The simultaneous administration of multiple drugs within identical nanocarriers to cancer cells or tissues can result in the effective action of drugs at reduced concentrations. In this investigation, PAMAM dendrimers (G4-PAMAM) were employed to link with methotrexate (MTX) using DCC/NHS chemistry and followed by the entrapment of curcumin (Cur) within it. …”

Old History of Culture and New Cultural History by Zenonas Norkus

“…Geertz), culture is an aspect of social reality, represented by the authoritative patterns for action and symbols. This idea of culture invites a historian to consider culture not as a specific set of social phenomena that are concentrated in the particular "cultural institutions" or segment of society, but as an aspect which can be detected in any social phenomena. …”

The Dynamic Response Law of Bank Slope under Water-Rock Interaction by Yinchai Zhang, Huafeng Deng, Wei Wang, Lingling Duan, Yongyan Zhi, Jianlin Li

“…During the reservoir operation process, the long-term security and stability of the bank slope is affected by dynamic response characteristics of its seismic action directly. Aimed at the typical bank slope existing in the actual reservoir environment, an experiment considering reservoir water level fluctuation and soaking-air-drying cyclic water-rock interaction has been designed and conducted while the cyclic loading test was performed in different water-rock cycles. …”

Study of Stress and Deformation of High Concrete-Face Rockfill Dam on Steep Slope in Narrow Valley by HOU Bingling, NIE Baisong

“…At present,in the finite-element stress and strain calculation of rockfill dams,fixed support is mostly adopted to simulate the connection between the rockfill at the bank slope and the slope.As for a concrete-face rockfill dam (CFRD) in the steep slope area of a narrow valley,the rockfill may slip along the bank slope face,in which case fixed support simulation is inconsistent with the actual situation.To study the influence of the steep slope in a narrow valley on the stress and deformation of a CFRD,we adopt the thickness-free Goodman element to simulate the interface between the steep slope boundary and the rockfill in a narrow valley.The results are compared with those of the conventional method of simulating the rockfill nodes at the bank slope as fixed support.The calculation results show that the deformation and stress distribution of the rockfill body are similar in the two cases,although the deformation is relatively smaller when fixed support treatment is implemented.Moreover,the tensile stress at the bottom of the concrete face in the riverbed section is large in the case of fixed support,which disagrees with the practical situation.After frictional contact is considered,the rockfill can slide along the bank slope,the stress distribution in this area tends to be uniform,and the arch effect is minor.After impoundment,the concrete face at the bank slope is slightly compressed under the action of the hydrostatic pressure,which is in line with the actual situation.…”

A Consequence-Based Response Framework for More Resilient Shipping Amidst Growing Uncertainty by Helen Thanopoulou, Siri Pettersen Strandenes

“…In the context of preparedness theory, the authors propose the adoption by shipping businesses, in parallel to any other risk approaches and tools, of the Assessment-reaction-Recovery-Conversion (ArRC) framework for managing risk and of relevant key recovery indicators which may assist in (a) increasing resilience through focusing the recovery planning on consequence-oriented, root-neutral reactions and (b) in promoting a “bounce-back-better” frame of mind and action plan, contributing to faster and easier recovery after a shock of any type.…”
