Adaptive Neural Sliding Mode Control of Active Power Filter by Juntao Fei, Zhe Wang

“…A radial basis function (RBF) neural network adaptive sliding mode control system is developed for the current compensation control of three-phase active power filter (APF). The advantages of the adaptive control, neural network control, and sliding mode control are combined together to achieve the control task; that is, the harmonic current of nonlinear load can be eliminated and the quality of power system can be well improved. …”

The Effect of Endotoxin-Induced Inflammation on the Activity of the Somatotropic Axis in Sheep by Maciej Wójcik, Dorota Anna Zieba, Joanna Bochenek, Agata Krawczyńska, Marcin Barszcz, Alina Gajewska, Hanna Antushevich, Andrzej Przemysław Herman

“…The results of the current study in a sheep model showed that inflammation impairs the activity of the somatotropic axis. On the one hand, LPS injection stimulated (p<0.01) GH secretion, and on the other hand, it reduced the liver’s sensitivity to this hormone by directly reducing (p<0.01) GHR expression and activating the GHR inhibitory signal transduction mechanism. …”

Synthesis, in vitro safety and antioxidant activity of new pyrrole hydrazones by Tzankova Diana, Vladimirova Stanislava, Aluani Denitsa, Yordanov Yordan, Peikova Lily, Georgieva Maya

“…The initial in vitro safety screening for cytotoxicity (on HepG2 cells) and hemocompatibility (hemolysis assay) showed good safety of the new compounds, where ethyl 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(1-(2-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)-hydrazineyl)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan-2-yl)-2-methyl-1H-pyr-role-3-carboxylate (4d) and ethyl 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(1-(2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)hydrazineyl)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropan--2-yl)-2-methyl-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate (4a) were the least toxic. The antioxidant activity in terms of radical scavenging activity (DPPH test) and reducing ability (ABTS) was also evaluated. …”

Experts on the defensive: The Tsiganologue versus Romani activism (1959-1973) by Begoña Barrera López

“…Specifically, it analyses the role played by one of these experts in the police persecution of Roma ethnic activism during the 1960s and early 1970s. Drawing on this case study, its objective is two-fold: firstly, to show the central role that Tsiganalogues played in the hounding of the Romani movement; secondly, to explain how the self-perceptions of these experts (of their authority and role) were decisive factor in their interventions with the public authorities. …”

A Novel Paramagnetic Substrate for Detecting Myeloperoxidase Activity in Vivo by Mohammed S. Shazeeb, Yang Xie, Suresh Gupta, Alexei A. Bogdanov

“…Bis-phenylamides and bis-hydroxyindolamides of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-gadolinium (DTPA(Gd)) are paramagnetic reducing substrates of peroxidases that enable molecular imaging of peroxidase activity in vivo. Specifically, gadolinium chelates of bis-5-hydroxytryptamide-DTPA (bis-5HT-DTPA(Gd)) have been used to image localized inflammation in animal models by detecting neutrophil-derived myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity at the inflammation site. …”
