We present an initial look at the far infrared-radio correlation within the starforming disks of four nearby, nearly face-on galaxies (NGC 2403, NGC 3031, NGC 5194, and NGC 6946). Using Spitzer MIPS imaging and WSRT radio continuum data, we are able to probe variations in the logarithmic 70 μm/22 cm (q70) flux density ratios across each disk at sub-kpc scales. We find general trends of decreasi...

The contribution of specific HLA Class II alleles in type 1 diabetes is determined by polymorphic amino acid epitopes that direct antigen binding therefore, along with conventional allele frequency analysis, epitope analysis can provide important insights into disease susceptibility. We analyzed the highly heterogeneous Cypriot population for the HLA class II loci of T1DM patients and controls ...

Drip irrigation under plastic mulch is widely used and leads to periodic drying–rewetting (DW) cycles in Xinjiang, Northwest China. However, the effect of different wet dry alternation types on soil inorganic nitrogen transformation not clear. Studying these issues only provides reference for formulation fertilization systems but also great significance reducing non-point source pollution. An i...

The aim of this survey was to gather data from both implant recipients and professionals on the ease of use of the Naída CI Q70 (Naída CI) sound processor from Advanced Bionics and on the usefulness of the new functions and features available. A secondary objective was to investigate fitting practices with the new processor. A comprehensive user satisfaction survey was conducted in a total of 1...

Enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) induces actin reorganization of host cells by injecting various effectors into host cytosol through type III secretion systems. EspB is the natively partially folded EHEC effector which binds to host α-catenin to promote the actin bundling. However, its structural basis is poorly understood. Here, we characterize the overall structural properties of EspB based ...

The drought event of 2018–2019 significantly affected most Central Europe. In this study, the development and intensity in Lusatian Neisse river catchment were evaluated, based on indices SPI, SPEI, low flow periods related to hydrological drought. Furthermore, multiannual variability indices, as well trends for air temperature precipitation totals, examined 1981–2020. catchment, deficit was no...

PT. Candi Loka Jamus switched to using micro hydro power plants meet its electrical energy needs because of the high operational costs and environmental impact fuel oil plants. However, during dry season, plant is unable produce enough needs, which could lead damage components decreased performance. To address this issue, potential was calculated time simulation season simulation. The rain data...

Oil and gas dependence the volatility of their prices is currently a serious challenge for Russian economy. Coincidently, export revenues from oil products are main source federal budget. Export diversification can contribute to risk reduction economy by increasing share other industries in structure. In this regard, present study examines determinants industrial regions using econometric model...
