Magnesium Nanocomposites: Current Status and Prospects for Army Applications

prospects for antifibrotic therapy

antifibrotic therapies should preferentially be targeted to the activated hepatic mesenchymal cells. those cells resemble wound healing myofibroblasts and synthesize an excess of extracellular matrix (ecm) proteins. they derive from quiescent hepatic stellate cells (hsc) and portal/perivascular (myo-) fibroblasts (mf). whereas various agents have been shown to inhibit hsc/mf proliferation and c...

Cyber Risk Exposure and Prospects for Cyber Insurance

This study draws attention to the ubiquitous and borderless nature of cybercrime. It examines the prospect of introducing customized cyber insurance policy in the Nigerian market. As secondary data was not available, the study conducted a survey by administering three sets of questionnaire to purposively selected top executives in four Trade Groups that rely heavily on Internet transactions for...

Prospects and challenges of iron pyroelectrolysis in magnesium aluminosilicate melts near minimum liquidus temperature.

Although steel production by molten oxide electrolysis offers potential economic and environmental advantages over classic extractive metallurgy, its feasibility is far from being convincingly demonstrated, mainly due to inherent experimental difficulties exerted by harsh conditions and lack of knowledge regarding relevant mechanisms and physico-chemical processes in the melts. The present work...

Magnesium--essentials for anesthesiologists.

Magnesium plays a fundamental role in many cellular functions, and thus there is increasing interest in its role in clinical medicine. Although numerous experimental studies indicate positive effects of magnesium in a variety of disease states, large clinical trials often give conflicting results. However, there is clear evidence for magnesium to benefit patients with eclampsia or torsades de p...
