Under high cognitive demands, older adults tend to resort to simpler, habitual, or model-free decision strategies. This age-related shift in decision behavior has been attributed to deficits in the representation of the cognitive maps, or state spaces, necessary for more complex model-based decision-making. Yet, the neural mechanisms behind this shift rem ...

With the increase in global population, industrialization, and urbanization, waste from construction, renovation, and demolition (CRD) activities has grown rapidly. There are some issues associated with the disposal of CRD waste in landfills. Depositing in landfills is still the main method for CRD waste disposal from the global perspective. The objective ...

Pirins are nuclear bicupin proteins, encoded by genes that are one of several gene families that comprise the Cupin superfamily in plants. Pirin genes have been implicated in stress response pathways studied in Arabidopsis and At-Pirin1 has been shown to interact with the heterotrimeric G-protein alpha subunit (GPA1). The aim of this study was to identify ...

Introduction: The study investigated the effect of 12 weeks of pilates training on the hemodynamic responses of older women with type-2 diabetes (T2D). Methods: 22 individuals with T2D were randomly allocated into two groups: CONTROL (n = 11; 67.5 ± 6.3 years; 154.7 ± 6.1 cm; 73.5 ± 6.1 kg; calorie intake: 1487.5 ± 360.6 kcal/day) and PILATES (n = 11; 65 ...

Carbon dots (CDs) are nanoparticles with tunable physicochemical and optical properties. Their resistance to photobleaching and relatively low toxicity render them attractive alternatives to fluorescent dyes and heavy metal-based quantum dots in the fields of bioimaging, sensing, catalysis, solar cells, and light-emitting diodes, among others. Moreover, t ...

Glioblastoma is a complex disease that is difficult to treat. Network and data science offer alternative approaches to classical bioinformatics pipelines to study gene expression patterns from single-cell datasets, helping to distinguish genes associated with the control of differentiation and aggression. To identify the key molecular regulators of the ne ...

Various models have been developed to determine ammonia (NH3 ) emissions from animal manure processing lagoons to enable relatively-simple estimations of emissions. These models allow estimation of actual emissions without intensive field measurements or "one-size- fits-all" emission factors. Two mechanisms for lagoon NH3 emissions exist: 1) diffusive gas ...

The spatial variability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the marine atmosphere contributes to the understanding of the global sources, fate, and impact of this contaminant. Few studies conducted to measure PAHs in the oceanic atmosphere have covered a large scale, especially in the Southern Ocean. In this study, high-volume air samples were t ...

World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic On March 12, 2020. Up to January 13, 2022, 320,944,953 cases of infection and 5,539,160 deaths have been reported worldwide. COVID-19 has negatively impacted the blood supply chain by drastically reducing blood donation. Therefore, developing models to design effective blood supply chains in ...

Background and objectives: Accurate delineation of the seizure-onset zone (SOZ) in focal drug-resistant epilepsy often requires stereo-EEG (SEEG) recordings. Our aims were to propose a truly objective and quantitative comparison between EEG/magnetoencephalography (MEG) source imaging (EMSI), EEG/ ...

The association between restrained eating and alcohol use remains poorly understood among undergraduates. Consistent with tension reduction theory, individuals with disordered eating may be motivated to drink alcohol to cope with negative emotionality. Perhaps what pushes them to drink despite restriction goals is impulsivity. The combined impact of drink ...
