Introduction, Aim: Acromegaly is a disease that importantly shortens the life-expectancy without its treatment.Due to the slow and indolent clinical course of acromegaly, the diagnosis is often delayed, making the treatment less successful.As many of the clinical signs may be found in the cranium and orofacial region, we believe that a well-educate
How tribology has been helping us to advance and to survive
Abstract Movement between contacting surfaces ranges from macro to micro scales, from the movement of continental plates and glaciers to the locomotion of animals and insects.Surface topographies, lubricant layers, contaminants, operating conditions, and others control it, i.e., this movement depends on the tribological characteristics of a system.
A miniaturized ommatid beetle in mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber (Coleoptera: Archostemata: Ommatidae)
Abstract Recent findings of ommatids from mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber have greatly increased our knowledge on the Mesozoic diversity of Ommatidae.Here, we report the Double Sided Shirt first distinctly miniaturized ommatid species, Miniomma chenkuni gen.et sp.nov., entombed in mid-Cretaceous amber from northern Myanmar.This new fossil species is c
The Role of the MAPK Signaling, Topoisomerase and Dietary Bioactives in Controlling Cancer Incidence
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are common products of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, xenobiotics metabolism and are generated in response to several environmental stress conditions.Some of them play important biochemical roles in cellular signal transduction and gene transcription.On the other hand, ROS are known to be involved in a wide r
ANALYSIS OF THE EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN THE CLASSROOM
Addressing this issue motivates a systematic review of neurodidactics related to the learning process, which are directly related not only to memory but also to emotional stimuli.Learning begins in the hippocampus and amygdala collaborating in the evaluation of emotional stimuli.Through empirical research with a sample made up of 160 university par
