Spin Hall magnetoresistance at Pt/CoFe2O4 interfaces and texture effects
(AIP publishing, 2014-10-08)
We report magnetoresistance measurements on thin Pt bars grown on epitaxial (001) and (111) CoFe2O4 (CFO) ferrimagnetic insulating films. The results can be described in terms of the recently discovered spin Hall ...
Sustained increase of PKA activity in the post-commissural putamen of dyskinetic monkeys
(Springer, 2014-04-05)
Levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID) are a frequent complication of Parkinson's disease pharmacotherapy that causes significant disability and narrows the therapeutic window. Pharmacological management of LID is challenging ...
AC and DC technology in microgrids: a review
(Elsevier, 2014-12-05)
Microgrids are a suitable, reliable and clean solution to integrate distributed generation into the mains grid. Microgrids can present both AC and DC distribution lines. The type of distribution conditions the performance ...
The effect of hydroxylated fatty acid-containing phospholipids in the remodeling of lipid membranes
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-01-24)
The synthetic fatty acid 2-hydroxyoleic acid (2OHOA) is an antitumor drug that regulates membrane lipid composition and structure. An important effect of this drug is the restoration of sphingomyelin (SM) levels in cancer ...
Stability of CuZnOAl2O3/HZSM-5 and CuFe2O4/HZSM-5 catalysts in dimethyl ether steam reforming operating in reaction-regeneration cycles
(Elsevier, 2014-05-21)
The study focuses on the regenerability of bifunctional catalysts prepared with different metallic functions (CuZnOAl2O3 and CuFe2O4 spinel) and HZSM-5 zeolite (SiO2/Al2O3 = 30) as the acid function. These catalysts have ...
Genetic and metabolic determinants of methotrexate-induced mucositis in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2014-11-04)
Methotrexate (MTX) is an effective and toxic chemotherapeutic drug in the treatment of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL). In this prospective study, we aimed to identify metabolic and genetic determinants of MTX ...
Pitch Based Wind Turbine Intelligent Speed Setpoint Adjustment Algorithms
(MDPI, 2014-06)
This work is aimed at optimizing the wind turbine rotor speed setpoint algorithm. Several intelligent adjustment strategies have been investigated in order to improve a reward function that takes into account the power ...
Osteometric analysis of the scapula and humerus of Rangifer tarandus and Cervus elaphus : A contribution to the discrimination of Late Pleistocene cervids
(Inst Paleobiologii Pan, 2014-12)
Fossil remains of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) occurring outside their present range are an important indicator of formerly cold climatic conditions, but are easily confused with those of the red deer (Cervus elaphus). The ...
Association between serum fatty acids and lipoprotein subclass profile in healthy young adults: exploring common genetic and environmental factors
(Elsevier, 2014-01-21)
Objective
Little is known about the associations of serum fatty acids with lipoprotein profile and the underlying genetic and environmental etiology of these relationships. We aimed to analyze the phenotypic association ...
Association of paternal IQ in early adulthood with offspring mortality and hospital admissions for injuries: a cohort study of 503 492 Swedish children
(BMJ Publishing Group, 2014-04-17)
Background Higher intelligence (IQ) has been related to a lower risk of mortality and hospital admissions for injuries, but little is known about the effect of parental IQ on offspring outcomes. We explored associations ...
