Satellite-derived prediction on habitat modelling of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) in the Makassar Strait, Indonesia

The Makassar Strait is one of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) branches that transports warm water masses from the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean. These water masses have a significant impact on oceanographic parameters, which in turn af...

Cloud point extraction procedure for preconcentration and determination of lead(II) ions using triton X-100 at room temperature

A Cloud point extraction (CPE) procedure was presented for preconcentration of lead(II) ions, after complexation by 18-crown-6 (18C6) and extraction with Triton X-100 at proposed experimental conditions. After separation of surfact...

Global quantum correlations in finite-size spin chains

We perform an extensive study of the properties of global quantum correlations in finite-size one-dimensional quantum spin models at finite temperature. By adopting a recently proposed measure for global quantum correlations (Rulli and Sara...

Solitons in Mathematics and Physics

The History of the Soliton Derivation of the Korteweg-de Vries, Nonlinear Schrodinger and Other Important and Canonical Equations of Mathematical Physics Soliton Equation Families and Solution Methods The -Function, the Hirota Method, the P...

Methods of solving of the optimal stabilization problem for stationary smooth control systems. Part I

In this article some ideas of Hamilton mechanics and differential-algebraic Geometry are used to exact definition of the potential function (Bellman-Lyapunov function) in the optimal stabilization problem of smooth finite-dimensional system...

Different Behavior of 2-Substituted 3-Nitro-2<i>H</i>-chromenes in the Reaction with Stabilized Azomethine Ylides Generated from α-Iminoesters

The AgOAc-catalysed reaction of 3-nitro-2-phenyl-2H-chromenes with stabilized azomethine ylides generated from the imines based on methyl glycinate and arylaldehydes leads to a mixture of endo and endo’ isomers of the corresponding chromeno...

Lattice-based ring signcryption for consortium blockchain

Ring signcryption with no group administrator satisfies the decentralization and blockchain anonymity. In this article, we construct new lattice-based ring signcryption scheme suitable for consortium blockchain (CB-LRSCS), in which the smar...

Analyzing the Transparency and the Efficiency of Innovative Transparent Electrodes for Space Solar Cell Applications

In this work a study about the behavior of nanomaterial-based innovative transparent electrodes is presented, with a special focus on graphene, for space photovoltaic applications, in particular their transparency and the efficiency of the ...

What Is Mathematics?

Abstract For more than two thousand years a familiarity with mathematics has been regarded as an indispensable part of the intellectual equipment of every cultured person. Today, unfortunately, the traditional place of mathematics in educat...

Left Noetherian rings with differentially trivial proper quotient rings

We characterize left Noetherian rings with differentially trivial proper quotient rings....

Domains in Health Technology Assessment of Digital Health Technologies: A Mapping Review

OBJECTIVES: Health Technology Assessment (HTA) plays an important role in evaluating digital health technologies (DHTs) to inform decision making. Commonly used HTA frameworks have been criticized as inadequate for assessing DHTs leading to...

Digital prevention of depression for farmers? A qualitative study on participants' experiences regarding determinants of acceptance and satisfaction with a tailored guided internet intervention program

Introduction: Farmers, forest workers and gardeners have a higher risk of developing depression compared to other occupational populations. As part of the German pilot project “With us in balance”, the potential of six guided internet- and ...

Author Correction: Causal networks of phytoplankton diversity and biomass are modulated by environmental context

A “P5” Approach to Healthcare and Health Technology

Abstract The challenges represented by chronic conditions worldwide are related to disease management and patient engagement. Healthcare should open not only to new tools and resources but also to innovative approaches. This contribution de...

Health Technology Assessment

Health Technology AssessmentLa strategia della Politica Sanitaria moderna, dunque, non mira più a limitare la spesa tout-court, bensì ad assicurare ai cittadini, in termini di outcome di salute, il massimo che si può ricavare dall'impiego r...

Gallium nanoparticles along with low-dose gamma radiation modulate TGF-β/MMP-9 expression in hepatocellular carcinogenesis in rats

Combining chemotherapy with radiotherapy potentiates the outcome of cancer treatment for the more comprehensive attack. In the current study, we continued to assess the therapeutic efficaciousness of the newly synthesized gallium nanopartic...

What could Paul have meant by ‘against nature’ (παρὰ φύσιν) as written in Romans 1:26? Striving for the well-being and health of all people

The point of departure of this article is postmodern philosopher Michel Foucault’s ‘archaeological analysis’ of the history of sexuality, seen from the lens of the South African philosopher Johann Beukes. Foucault points out that since the ...

Antioxidant activity assay of white Turi (Sesbania grandiflora (L.) Pers.) extracts using DPPH radical scavenging method

Turi (Sesbania grandiflora (L.) Pers.) is a type of plant belonging to the Fabaceae family that is widespread in Indonesian territory and has the potential as a natural free radical scavenger. The study aims to compare the antioxidant activ...

Effectiveness of a tele-rehabilitation intervention to improve performance and reduce morbidity for people post hip fracture - study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Abstract Background Most surviving hip-fracture patients experience reduced mobility and lose some of their functional ability, which increases the risk of complications and rehospitalization. Post-discharge transitional programs to reduce ...
