Structural performance and moment redistribution of basalt FRC continuous beams reinforced with basalt FRP bars by Abushanab, Abdelrahman

“…A total of 10 reinforced concrete (RC) continuous beams over two equal spans of 1800 mm were tested under five-point loading until failure. The test variables were the type of main bars, sagging-to-hogging reinforcement ratio, volume fractions (Vf) of basalt macro fibers (BMF), and stirrups spacing. …”

Changes in expression of Kv7.5 and Kv7.2 channels in dorsal root ganglion neurons in the streptozotocin rat model of painful diabetic neuropathy by Laiche, Djouhri

“…We found 35 days post-STZ: (1) a significant decrease in Kv7.5-immunoreactivity in small (<30 μm) DRG neurons (both IB4 positive and IB4 negative) and medium-sized (30−40 μm) neurons, and (2) a significant increase in Kv7.2-immunoreactivity in small (<30 μm) neurons, and a non-significant increase in medium/large neurons. …”

Cutaneous Aβ-Non-nociceptive, but Not C-Nociceptive, Dorsal Root Ganglion Neurons Exhibit Spontaneous Activity in the Streptozotocin Rat Model of Painful Diabetic Neuropathy . by Djouhri, Laiche

“…Compared with control, we found in STZ-rats with established pain hypersensitivity (5 weeks post-STZ) several significant changes including: (a) A 23% increase in the incidence of spontaneous activity (SA) in Aβ-LTMs (but not C-mechanosensitive nociceptors) that may cause dysesthesias/paresthesia suffered by DPNP patients, (b) membrane hyperpolarization and a ∼85% reduction in SA rate in Aβ-LTMs by K7 channel activation with retigabine (6 mg/kg, i.v.) suggesting that K7/M channels may be involved in mechanisms of SA generation in Aβ-LTMs, (c) decreases in AP duration and in duration and amplitude of afterhyperpolarization (AHP) in C-and/or Aβ-nociceptors. …”

Asymmetric effects of oil price shocks on the demand for money in Algeria by Amirouche, Chelghoum

“…This paper investigates the symmetric and asymmetric effects of real oil prices on real money demand in Algeria over the period 1999:Q1–2020:Q1. Using a linear autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL), and a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), we find no evidence of a long-term relationship among the variables. …”
