Metabolic consequences of obesity on the hypercoagulable state of polycystic ovary syndrome. by Moin, Abu Saleh Md

“…Eight pro-coagulation proteins were elevated in PCOS: plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (p < 0.0001), fibrinogen (p < 0.01), fibrinogen gamma chain (p < 0.0001), fibronectin (p < 0.01), von Willebrand factor (p < 0.05), D-dimer (p < 0.0001), P-selectin (p < 0.05), and plasma kallikrein (p < 0.001). However, two anticoagulant proteins, vitamin K-dependent protein-S (p < 0.0001) and heparin cofactor-II (p < 0.001) were elevated and prothrombin was decreased (p < 0.05). …”

Inhibition of alpha-synuclein seeded fibril formation and toxicity by herbal medicinal extracts. by Ardah, Mustafa T

“…In order to investigate the inhibitory mechanisms of these two compounds towards fibril formation, we demonstrated that salvianolic acid B binds predominantly to monomers, while dihydromyricetin binds to oligomeric species and to a lower extent to monomers. …”

Facile Electrochemical Synthesis of Highly Efficient Copper-Cobalt Oxide Nanostructures for Oxygen Evolution Reactions by Nath, Narayan Chandra Deb

“…An optimized nanopetal structure of CuxCo3-xO4 (x = 0.95, annealed at 200 °C) shows a considerably high Faradaic efficiency (∼93%) with a remarkably low overpotential (∼230 mV) at a benchmark current density (J) of 10 mA cm-2; at the same J in an alkaline solution (1 M KOH) for OER, it also exhibits high durability (up to 100 h). …”

Effect of the length of silicon nano-dot/wire on band gap by Hassan, Walid M.I.

“…We will report on the role of the length of silicon nanowire (SNW) in determining the band gap of a structure. We find that the band gap decreases with SNW length for the same diameter and approaches the band gap for an ideal infinitely long SNW. …”
