High levels of saturated, branched-chain fatty acids are deleterious to cells and animals, resulting in lipid accumulation and cytotoxicity. Although fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) are thought to be protective, this hypothesis has not previously been examined. Phytanic acid (branched chain, 16-carbon backbone) induced lipid accumulation in L cell fibroblasts similar to that observed with p...

Herein we report the synthesis and structural characterization of three new europium containing coordination polymers: [Eu(terpy)(2,6-ndc) 1.5 ]·H 2 O (Linus Pauling (LP) 1), [Eu(terpy)(1,4-ndc)(1,4-Hndc)] ( LP- 2), [Eu(phen)(2,6-ndc) ]·DMF 3).

Disasters are catastrophic events that can severely affect the life conditions of entire communities. Disaster-related issues usually dealt with according to Disaster Operations Management framework, which is composed four phases: mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. This work focuses on two crucial operations belonging response phase: shelter location evacuation endangered populat...

Abstract A quality management system is critical for ensuring that the data and services provided by an organization meet needs of its mission. With a mission to collect long‐term open‐access ecological better understand how US ecosystems are changing, National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) highly standardized measurement network distributed across United States Puerto Rico collecting o...

Abstract In terms of model predictive control (MPC) performance degradation caused by operational faults, in this article, a robust MPC strategy with active fault tolerance properties is proposed. The proposed incorporates supervision layer into the structure conventional cost‐contracting formulation‐based for online update nominal controller event faults. based on multiplant uncertainty, while...

Abstract The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is a cornerstone of multi‐criteria decision analysis, enabling well‐informed choices across diverse contexts. This paper introduces an original benchmark‐based framework designed to enhance the precision consistency classification for pairwise comparison matrices (PCMs) within AHP methodology. innovative approach quantifies discrepancy between given...

INTRODUCTION Survivors of breast cancer (SBC) constitute the largest population of cancer survivors. Needs for survivorship care may vary according to life stage and urban/rural place of residence. This study was conducted to better understand patient preferences for survivorship care plans (SCP). METHODS Patients were identified through cancer agency electronic records and invited to partici...

e276 Background: The 2015 Commission on Cancer standard requires that cancer survivors receive a personalized survivorship care plan (SCP). There are variations on how this plan is delivered, depending on time and available staff. These can include mailing the SCP, delivering the SCP at the conclusion of a visit, and fully discussing the SCP at a survivorship visit. There is a need to evaluate ...
