Synthesis of Tetrasubstituted Phosphorus Analogs of Aspartic Acid as Antiproliferative Agents
(MDPI, 2022-11-18)
An efficient general method for the synthesis of a wide family of α-aminophosphonate analogs of aspartic acid bearing tetrasubstituted carbons is reported through an aza-Reformatsky reaction of α-iminophosphonates, generated ...
The drawdown phase of dam decommissioning is a hot moment of gaseous carbon emissions from a temperate reservoir
(Taylor & Francis, 2022)
Dam decommissioning (DD) is a viable management option for thousands of ageing dams. Reservoirs are large carbon sinks, and reservoir drawdown results in important carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) emissions. We studied ...
Development and evaluation of different electroactive poly(vinylidene fluoride) architectures for endothelial cell culture
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Tissue engineering (TE) aims to develop structures that improve or even replace the biological functions of tissues and organs. Mechanical properties, physical-chemical characteristics, biocompatibility, and biological ...
Reviewing and Discussing Graph Reduction in Edge Computing Context
(MDPI, 2022-09-16)
Much effort has been devoted to transferring efficiently different machine-learning algorithms, and especially deep neural networks, to edge devices in order to fulfill, among others, real-time, storage and energy-consumption ...
Validation of a Parent-Reported Physical Activity Questionnaire by Accelerometry in European Children Aged from 6 to 12 Years Old
(MDPI, 2022-07-27)
Validated physical activity (PA) questionnaires are crucial for collecting information in large epidemiological studies during childhood. Thus, this study analyzed the validity of a parent-reported PA questionnaire based ...
The Palma Echo Platform: Rationale and Design of an Echocardiography Core Lab
(Frontiers Media, 2022-06)
Background: The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Characterization of cardiac structural and functional abnormalities due to the MetS can help recognize individuals ...
Size Effect in Hybrid TiO2:Au Nanostars for Photocatalytic Water Remediation Applications
(MDPI, 2022-11-08)
TiO2:Au-based photocatalysis represents a promising alternative to remove contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) from wastewater under sunlight irradiation. However, spherical Au nanoparticles, generally used to sensitize ...
NRN1 Gene as a Potential Marker of Early-Onset Schizophrenia: Evidence from Genetic and Neuroimaging Approaches
(MDPI, 2022)
Included in the neurotrophins family, the Neuritin 1 gene (NRN1) has emerged as an attractive candidate gene for schizophrenia (SZ) since it has been associated with the risk for the disorder and general cognitive performance. ...
Lexical Crosslinguistic Influence in L3 Spanish by Tagalog–English Bilinguals
(MDPI, 2022-08-10)
Crosslinguistic influence (CLI) has emerged as a topic of interest in the field of third language acquisition (L3A) due to the increasing focus on multilingual learners. Research has considered many different issues, such ...
Vision-Based Semantic Segmentation in Scene Understanding for Autonomous Driving: Recent Achievements, Challenges, and Outlooks
(IEEE, 2022-12)
Scene understanding plays a crucial role in autonomous driving by utilizing sensory data for contextual information extraction and decision making. Beyond modeling advances, the enabler for vehicles to become aware of their ...
