This paper surveys the recent literature on economic impacts of SARS, MERS, and COVID-19, which Asian countries have experienced in past two decades. In particular, we provide a detailed summary how each infectious diseases has impacted economies extent that impact. also documents governments responded to COVID-19 shocks with their policies, discusses effectiveness these policies mitigate econo...

The emerging economies are the centrepieces in sustainable consumption and production of palm oil (SCP). With collaborative efforts European Union some non-governmental organisations, producers kept spotlight, scrutiny has begun to sweep down supply chain. Palm environmental liabilities extended consuming countries criticism is evident context weak institutions inadequate attention from interes...

[email protected] NPs and were synthesized by precipitation method involving three mechanisms: inclusion, occlusion, adsorption. The characterized with the help of UV-Vis spectroscopy, FESEM-EDAX, powder x-ray diffraction, TEM, ESIMS, TG/DSC analysis. morphology hexagonal rectangular, particles in range 7–12 nm. UV–visible spectral measurements showed surface plasmon resonance at 320 nm–340 nm ...

OBJECTIVES We assessed the usefulness of differential diagnosis of parkinsonism by evaluating lesions of the decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncle (SCP) in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) using a new MRI procedure known as readout segmentation of long variable echo-trains (RESOLVE). METHODS We evaluated 100 cases, consisting of 20 with PSP, 24 with Parkinson's dis...

The emergence of streaming multimedia players provides users with low latency audio and video content over the Internet. Providing high-quality, best e ort, real-time multimedia content requires adaptive delivery schemes that fairly share the available network bandwidth with reliable data protocols. Real-time multimedia tra c must avoid halting TCP-based HTTP tra c! This paper proposes a new ow...

PURPOSE Neuromelanin is a dark pigment granule present within certain catecholamine neurons of the human brain. Here, we aimed to clarify the relationship between contrast of neuromelanin-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and MR relaxation times using T1, T2, and T2* mapping of the lower midbrain. METHODS The subjects were 14 healthy volunteers (11 men and 3 women, mean age 29.9 ± 6....

Whole cell voltage-clamp recordings from Aplysia mechanosensory neurons obtained from the pleural ganglion were used to investigate the actions on membrane currents of the neuropeptides SCP(B) and FMRFamide. At the start of whole cell recording, SCP(B) typically evoked an inward current at a holding potential of -40 mV, due to the cAMP-mediated closure of the S-type K+ channel, whereas FMRFamid...

Although plasma membrane domains, such as caveolae, provide an organizing principle for signaling pathways and cholesterol homeostasis in the cell, relatively little is known regarding specific mechanisms, whereby intracellular lipid-binding proteins are targeted to caveolae. Therefore, the interaction between caveolin-1 and sterol carrier protein-2 (SCP-2), a protein that binds and transfers b...

PyGPlates is an open-source Python library to visualize and edit plate tectonic reconstructions created using GPlates. The API affords a greater level of flexibility than GPlates interrogate integrate with other workflows. GPlately was accelerate spatio-temporal data analysis leveraging pyGPlates PlateTectonicTools within simplified interface. This object-oriented package enables the reconstruc...
