Bacteriocin-like peptides encoded by a horizontally acquired island mediate Neisseria gonorrhoeae autolysis. by Katy Poncin, Samantha A McKeand, Hayley Lavender, Kacper Kurzyp, Odile B Harrison, Annabell Roberti, Charlotte Melia, Errin Johnson, Martin C J Maiden, David R Greaves, Rachel Exley, Christoph M Tang

“…The nap island in the gonococcus encodes 3 cationic, bacteriocin-like peptides which have no detectable antimicrobial activity. Instead, the gonococcal Neisseria autolysis peptides (Naps) promote autolytic cell death when bacteria enter the stationary phase of growth. …”

Microstructural investigation of the coatings prepared by simultaneous aluminizing and siliconizing process on γ-TiAl by Nouri S., Azadeh M.

“…In this study, the effect of decreasing the activity of Si, through two approaches of reducing the amount of Si in the powder mixture and using Al- 20wt.%Si alloyed powder instead of pure Al and Si depositing elements, on the microstructural modification coatings was investigated. …”

Characterization of environmental and clinical surveillance inputs to support prospective integrated modeling of the polio endgame. by Kamran Badizadegan, Kimberly M Thompson

“…The expected growth (instead of decline) of poliovirus surveillance needs as of 2024, as well as innovations in laboratory technologies and expansion wastewater sampling, raise questions about the tradeoffs of different options and the future of poliovirus surveillance. …”

Damped Iterative Explicit Guidance for Multistage Rockets with Thrust Drop Faults by Zongzhan Ma, Chuankui Wang, Zhi Xu, Shuo Tang, Ying Ma

“…Based on the iterative guidance mode (IGM) and powered explicit guidance (PEG), this method is enhanced in three aspects: (1) an accurate transversality condition is derived and applied in the dimension-reduction framework instead of using a simplified assumption; (2) the Gauss–Legendre quadrature formula (GLQF) is adopted to increase the accuracy of the method by addressing the issue of excessive errors in calculating thrust integration using linearization methods based on a small quantity assumption under fault conditions; and (3) a damping factor for solving the time-to-go is introduced to avoid the chattering phenomenon and enhance convergence. …”

Walking and Hippocampal Formation Volume Changes: A Systematic Review by Mohamed Hesham Khalil

“…Future research is encouraged to explore the hippocampal subregional changes instead of focusing on total hippocampal volume, since the hippocampal formation is multicompartmental and subfields respond differently to different walking-related variables.…”

An improved quantitative assessment method on hazardous interference of power lines to the signal cable in high‐speed railway by Chang Liu, Shiwu Yang, Yong Cui, Shaotong Chu, Qihui Xiong

“…Then, an improved theoretical calculation method is proposed for the multi‐conductor power line network of the HSR instead of the traditional look‐up table method. Regarding the essential influence of different earthing methods and cable laying conditions, the quantitative calculation of the LEF on the cable is evaluated. …”

Vegetation Activity Trend and Its Relationship with Climate Change in the Three Gorges Area, China by Guifeng Han, Yongchuan Yang, Shuiyu Yan

“…Therefore, temperature and precipitation are not major influences on vegetation activity change. Instead, increasing vegetation cover benefits from a number of environment protection policies and management, and ecological construction is a major factor resulting in the upward trend. …”

Information scrambling with higher-form fields by Karunava Sil, Sourav Maji, Stavros Christodoulou, Abhishek Chowdhury

“…However, it has been recently observed that for certain holographic theories, the OTOC involving the U(1) conserved current for a gauge field instead varies diffusively at late times. The present work generalizes this observation to conserved currents corresponding to higher-form symmetries that belong to a wider class of symmetries known as generalized symmetries. …”

An Insight of Vitamin E as Neuroprotective Agents by Hui-Min Yap, Kwan-Liang Lye

“…Tocotrienols differ from tocopherols by possessing an unsaturated isoprenoid side chain instead of a saturated phytyl tail. Tocotrienols, compared to tocopherols, are lightly studied due to the abundance of α-tocopherol in the human body and its antioxidant properties. …”

Flow optimization in vascular networks by Radu C. Cascaval, Ciro D'Apice, Maria Pia D'Arienzo, Rosanna Manzo

“…In order to capture the major features of the phenomena under study, such as variations in arterial pressure and flow velocity, the resulting PDE models on networks require appropriate junction and boundary conditions. Instead of considering an entire network, we simulate portions of the latter and use inflow and outflow conditions which realistically mimic the behavior of the network that has not been included in the spatial domain. …”

Primary Pericardial Sarcoma with Right Atrial Invasion and Multiple Bilateral Pulmonary Metastases in a Patient with Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer by Eugene Wong, Lawrence J. Oh, Kazi Nahar, Adrian Lee, Stephen Clarke

“…On thoracotomy, it was noted that the tumour had invaded the right atrium; therefore, pericardial window was aborted and a drain inserted instead. The patient was then started on chemotherapy; however, progression soon occurred and the patient died within 4 months, suggesting there is urgent need for efficacious treatments for sarcomatous lesions.…”
