Nutrition is a critical determinant of the outcome of host microbe interactions through a modulation of the immune response. Besides macronutrient malnutrition, deficiencies of several macronutrients also influence immune homeostasis and thus affect infection-related morbidity and mortality. Deficiencies of micronutrients like vitamin A, iron and zinc are widely prevalent among populations livi...

In a modern power system, to realize the safe operation of units and maintain frequency stability network, various means modulation can be adopted. However, there are some deficiencies in real-time monitoring assessment management primary (PFM). To solve these problems, PFM online method based on “master–sub” control station model wide area measurement system (WAMS) is proposed as strategy supp...

In the framework of the Mediterranean Forecasting System (MFS) project, the performance of regional numerical ocean forecasting systems is assessed by means of model-model and model-data comparison. Three different operational systems considered in this study are: the Adriatic REGional Model (AREG); the Adriatic Regional Ocean Modelling System (AdriaROMS) and the Mediterranean Forecasting Syste...
