We study the properties of M and F theory compactifications to three and four dimensions with background fluxes. We provide a simple construction of supersymmetric vacua, including some with orientifold descriptions. These vacua, which have warp factors, typically have fewer moduli than conventional Calabi-Yau compactifications. The mechanism for anomaly cancellation in the orientifold models i...

Aquaglyceroporins, belonging to the family of aquaporins (AQPs), are integral plasma membrane proteins permeable to water and glycerol that have emerged as key players in obesity. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression profile of AQPs in undifferentiated and differentiated 3T3-L1 cells and to investigate the changes in expression of aquaglyceroporins in 3T3-L1 cells differentia...

In this report we present an approach to deal with a problem encountered in different type of systems and specific configurations: the treatment of low density regions. This is the case of gas cooled reactors, voided configurations (evaluations of associated reactivity coefficients), beam region of external source driven systems, etc. The approach is to form the nodal response matrix using the ...

### What you need to know Venous thromboembolism (VTE), which includes deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is a major global health burden. North American data report 30 day case fatality rate of 10.6% following VTE. Between 30% 50% survivors go on have long term complications.12 About half VTE episodes occur during hospitalisation for surgery or acute medical illness, with...
