Joint frequency space design approach for efficient planar frequency diverse arrays

Author(s): Hasheminasab M; Cheldavi A; Kishk AA;

Antenna arrays offer advantages in terms of spatial diversity, allowing for control over pattern specifications in space. The incorporation of frequency diversity in arrays presents an opportunity to manipulate beams in the Space-Time domain. Unlike conventional arrays, Frequency Diverse Arrays (FDA) with added frequency diversity exhibit time-variant and ...

Overlooked Role of Bulk Nanobubbles in the Alteration and Motion of Microplastics in the Ocean Environment

Author(s): Wang Z; An C; Lee K; Feng Q;

The increasing enrichment of microplastics (MPs) in the shoreline environment poses both ecological and social-economic risks. The alteration and motion of MPs in the ocean under the effect of bulk nanobubbles (NBs) have been less extensively studied. In this study, we explored the behavior and movement of various MPs in the presence of bulk NBs. The role ...

Effects of Exercise Alone or Combined With Cognitive Training and Vitamin D Supplementation to Improve Cognition in Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Author(s): Montero-Odasso M; Zou G; Speechley M; Almeida QJ; Liu-Ambrose T; Middleton LE; Camicioli R; Bray NW; Li KZH; Fraser S; Pieruccini-Faria F; Berryman N; Lussier M; Shoemaker JK; Son S; Bherer L;

Importance: Exercise, cognitive training, and vitamin D may enhance cognition in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Objective: To determine whether aerobic-resistance exercises would improve cognition relative to an active control and if a multidomain intervention including exerc ...

Monkeys who experience more feeding competition utilize social information to learn foraging skills faster

Author(s): Arseneau-Robar TJM; Anderson KA; Sicotte P; Teichroeb JA;

Animals must learn foraging skills to successfully survive and reproduce but the sources of interindividual variation in learning are poorly understood. For example, there is little consensus on the role motivation plays, even though it is a key factor impacting learning outcomes in humans. Here, we conduct a field experiment on a wild primate to investig ...

Online Gambling Practices and Related Problems in Five European Countries: Findings from the Electronic Gam(bl)ing Multinational Empirical Survey (E-GAMES) Project

Author(s): Costes JM; Kairouz S; Fiedler I; Bartczuk RP; Lelonkek-Kuleta B; Minutillo A; Notari L;

Online gambling has demonstrated a significant and growing impact on overall gambling involvement. To examine online gambling practices and associated problems, we conducted surveys with national samples of Internet users in several European countries. The objective of this paper is to provide a portrait of online gambling practices and problems in five E ...

Roles of inter- and intramolecular tryptophan interactions in membrane-active proteins revealed by racemic protein crystallography

Author(s): Lander AJ; Mercado LD; Li X; Taily IM; Findlay BL; Jin Y; Luk LYP;

Tryptophan is frequently found on the surface of membrane-associated proteins that interact with the lipid membrane. However, because of their multifaceted interactions, it is difficult to pinpoint the structure-activity relationship of each tryptophan residue. Here, we describe the use of racemic protein crystallography to probe dedicated tryptophan inte ...

Spaced Apart: Autoethnographies of Access Throughout the COVID 19 Pandemic

Author(s): Dokumaci A; Bessette-Viens R; Goberdhan N; Lucas S; Mazowita A; Stainton J;

In this article, we present six autoethnographies of lives marked by crisis that reflect on the issues of access, very broadly defined, that the COVID 19 pandemic has raised or redefined for each of us. As the time of crisis has made access concerns more and more evident it also exposes how access is not an issue just for disabled people, but for all live ...

Bioretention Cells Provide a 10-Fold Reduction in 6PPD-Quinone Mass Loadings to Receiving Waters: Evidence from a Field Experiment and Modeling

Author(s): Rodgers TFM; Wang Y; Humes C; Jeronimo M; Johannessen C; Spraakman S; Giang A; Scholes RC;

Road runoff to streams and rivers exposes aquatic organisms to complex mixtures of chemical contaminants. In particular, the tire-derived chemical 6PPD-quinone (N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine-quinone) is acutely toxic to several species of salmonids, which are critical to ...

Screening for parent and child ADHD in urban pediatric primary care: pilot implementation and stakeholder perspectives

Author(s): Lui JHL; Danko CM; Triece T; Bennett IM; Marschall D; Lorenzo NE; Stein MA; Chronis-Tuscano A;

Background: ADHD commonly co-occurs in children and parents. When ADHD is untreated in parents, it contributes to negative child developmental and treatment outcomes. Screening for parent and child ADHD co-occurrence in pediatric primary care may be an effective strategy for early identification ...

The β2-adrenergic receptor agonist terbutaline upregulates T helper-17 cells in a protein kinase A-dependent manner

Author(s): Carvajal Gonczi CM; Hajiaghayi M; Gholizadeh F; Xavier Soares MA; Touma F; Lopez Naranjo C; Rios AJ; Pozzebon C; Daigneault T; Burchell-Reyes K; Darlington PJ;

Background: T helper 17 (Th17) cells produce IL-17A cytokine and can exacerbate autoimmune diseases and asthma. The ß2 adrenergic receptor is a g protein-coupled receptor that induces cAMP second messenger pathways. We tested the hypothesis that terbutaline, a ß2-adrenergic receptor-specific agon ...
