Optimized window functions for spectral analysis based on digital filters by R.V. Petrosian

“…One of the main challenges in real-world signal spectral analysis is spectral leakage, which causes the appearance of unwanted side lobes in the signal spectrum. To mitigate this effect, traditional window functions (such as Hanning, Hamming, Blackman, Kaiser, etc.) are typically applied. …”

Early Contact Stage of Apoptosis: Its Morphological Features and Function by Etheri Mikadze, Teo Mamatsashvili

“…We assume that the apoptotic cell, besides proteolytic products, can contain newly synthesized, low-molecular substances, the relocation of which from apoptotic to neighboring cells may contribute to both functional activity and proliferation of adjacent hepatoblasts and, therefore, the function of apoptosis may not be limited only to the elimination of harmful, damaged, and unwanted cells.…”
