Following an eight-dimensional gauged supergravity approach we construct the most general solution describing D6-branes wrapped on a Kähler four-cycle taken to be the product of two spheres of different radii. Our solution interpolates between a Calabi–Yau four-fold and the spaces S × S × S × IR or S × S × IR, depending on generic choices for the parameters. Then we turn on a background four-fo...

This documents states the research agenda for the future of cryptology. We show which areas deserve more research bridging the gap between applications and research. For more detailed problems see the STORK document “D6 – Open Problems in Cryptology”.

Full and unambiguous asssignment of all Hand C-NMR resonances of the free bases as well as the hydrochloride salts of the antiarrhythmic agent propafenone and a thiophene analogue in different solutions (DMSO-d6, CDCl3) is reported.

Abstract Study question Are there cell lineage-related differences in the apoptotic rates of human blastocysts classified as euploid, mosaic and aneuploid after preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A)? Summary answer In blastocysts, apoptosis is more frequent trophectoderm (TE) cells associated with presence uniform chromosomal alterations. What known already Embryos diagnosed PG...

Abstract Study question Is there any benefit of extending culture until day (D) 7 to increase euploid blastocysts yield and clinical outcomes in a PGT-Aneuploidy analysis (PGT-A) program? Summary answer Extended D7 increases cumulative live birth. Highest was observed patients aged ≤41 with ≤2 D5/D6 biopsied. What is known already It well-known that female age the strongest predictive factor em...

PURPOSE Chemokines may play vital roles in breast cancer progression and metastasis. The primary members of chemokine decoy receptors (CDR), DARC and D6, are expressed in breast tumors and lymphatic/hematogenous vessels. CDRs sequestrate the pro-malignant chemokines. We hypothesized that breast cancer patients carrying different levels of CDR expression in tumor and/or in host might have differ...

The decrease in insulin sensitivity (IS) during myocardial infarction (MI) is recognized as a possible contributor to poor patient outcomes. Despite its potential relevance, a standardized and convenient IS assessment tool has yet to be established for said clinical scenarios. This study aimed to validate the accuracy of surrogate indexes in determining IS in acute MI patients by comparison wit...

BACKGROUND How weight change affects the metabolic syndrome (MS) and its parameters is unknown, particularly, in a leaner European population such as the French prospective D.E.S.I.R. cohort. METHODS In 3770 D.E.S.I.R. participants (sex ratio=1) averaging 47.5 years (range 30-64), with measured weight and MS parameters at baseline (D0) and at 6 year follow-up (D6), we assessed this relationsh...

The study investigated meat quality of bulls fed concentrate feeds and hay. treatments were hay ad libitum + dried cafeteria leftover 4 kg DM d-1 (D1); wheat bran (D2); maize grain (D3); mix (1:1, to grain, respectively (D4)); scrambled whole groundnut (D5); each ingredient d-1(D6)). Samples from longissimus lumborum muscle taken in triplicate. Beef D5 had highest (p < 0.05) protein fat than...

Differentiation of skeletal myogenic cells into multinucleated myotubes involves several cellular events including survival, migration, and motility. The level of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2)-associated glycoprotein p67 gradually increases during the differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts into myotubes. It not only suppresses the rates of global protein synthesis, it inhibits the activatio...
