However, only one major QTL, which explained the largest phenotypic variation (27.7-69.5%), was stably detected under two different environments using both R and Q methods. In the two main stable QTLs regions on chromosomes 3 and 10, candidate genes for regulating the molecular mechanism of different leaflet shapes were detected by functional…[Read more]

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the possible association between smoking habits and the occurrence of root-filled teeth (RFT) extraction.

The Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcome (PICO) question was in adult patients who had RFT, does the absence or presence of smoking habits affect the…[Read more]

NMR spectroscopy is a versatile tool for studying time-dependent processes chemical reactions, phase transitions or macromolecular structure changes. However, time-resolved NMR is usually based on the simplest among available techniques – one-dimensional spectra serving as “snapshots” of the studied process. One of the reasons is that…[Read more]

Enlightened by this study, future remediation strategies should be focused on steadily increasing soil pH, and building adaptable and sustainable ecological system to maintain low metal availabilities in mine site soils.In processes of manufacturing semiconductors, reactive by-products (as a form of fine powder, i.e., dust) are deposited in pipes…[Read more]

Pulmonary emphysema is the major debilitating component of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. The ADAM17 (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17) protease mediates inflammation via ectodomain shedding of numerous proinflammatory cytokines, cytokine receptors, and adhesion…[Read more]
