The present work aims to develop a computational model investigating turbulent flows in a problem that simulates an oscillating water column device (OWC) considering a Savonius turbine in the air duct region. Incompressible, two-dimensional, unsteady, and turbulent flows were considered for three different configurations: (1) free turbine inserted in a long and large channel for verification/validation of the model, (2) an enclosure domain that mimics an OWC device with a constant velocity at its inlet, ...

We evaluated the thickness of the adrenal cortex zones of female rats androgenized to mimic polycystic ovary syndrome.Forty-four female virgin Wistar-Hannover rats were divided into two groups: controls (n = 17) and animals which received testosterone propionate on the 2nd day of life (n = 27). At 90 days of life, after confirmation of persistent estrus, the animals were sacrificed, and the adrenal cortex zones were evaluated. Student's t test and Levene's test were used in the statistical analysis (p < ...

Abstract Over the last several years, lignin hydroxypropylation with propylene oxide (PO) has been used as the main strategy to overcome lignin limitations, such as its low reactivity, poor dispersion, and high stiffness, in the context of polyurethane (PU) synthesis. However, PO is a flammable, toxic, and carcinogenic compound. Propylene carbonate (PC), a compound with low toxicity and biodegradability, has emerged as a feasible alternative to PO. Although this compound has potential for use in syntheses, ...

This paper presents a methodology that allows the numerical simulation of realistic sea waves, called WaveMIMO methodology, which is based on the imposition of transient discrete data as prescribed velocity on a finite volume computational model developed in Fluent software. These transient data are obtained by using the spectral wave model TOMAWAC, where the wave spectrum is converted into a series of free surface elevations treated and processed as wave propagation velocities in the horizontal ( ...

Background: Proteasome inhibition is a current therapeutic strategy used in the treatment of multiple myeloma. Drugs controlling proteasome activity are ideally suited for unidirectional manipulation of cellular pathways such as apoptosis. The first proteasome inhibitor approved in clinics was bortezomib. This drug is currently used in combination with other anticancer agents. Objectives : In this study, the enhancement of bortezomib activity was evaluated using gold nanoparticles coated with poly( ...

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the relationship between genetic ancestry inferred from autosomal and Y chromosome markers and HLA genotypes in patients with Type 1 Diabetes from an admixed Brazilian population. Inference of autosomal ancestry; HLA-DRB1 , -DQA1 and -DQB1 typifications; and Y chromosome analysis were performed. European autosomal ancestry was about 50%, followed by approximately 25% of African and Native American. The European Y chromosome was predominant. The HLA-DRB1*03 and ...

Rhizobium tropici establishes symbiosis with several leguminous species, inducing nitrogen fixing nodules. Communication between rhizobia and legumes starts when the flavonoids secreted by plant roots interact with the R. tropici NodD protein to recognize plant signaling molecules present in the rhizosphere and begin the nodulation process. Some studies in R. tropici CIAT 899 have demonstrated that the induction of nod genes by saline stress influences the formation of nodules in plant roots. The ...

Ants are among the insects involved in cadaveric decomposition processes, as they exhibit predatory and necrophagous behavior. Red ants exhibit an aggressive behavior, which impacts carcass colonization, accelerates or delays the decomposition rates and potentially confounds interpretation of the post-mortem interval. Here, we estimated the effects of Solenopsis saevissima (Smith) activity on the decomposition rate in domestic pig carcasses. We placed two pig carcasses close to S. saevissima nests, ...

Defining biomarkers for invasive pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) is highly desirable. The high mobility group A (HMGA) proteins are among the most widely expressed cancer-associated proteins. Indeed, their overexpression is a frequent feature of human malignancies, including PitNETs. We show that nonfunctioning PitNETs (NF-PitNETs) express significantly higher levels of HMGA1 than somatotropinomas (GHs) and corticotropinomas (ACTHs). Furthermore, HMGA2 expression was detected only in NF-PitNETs ...

BACKGROUND:Juvenile hemochromatosis is a rare genetic disease that leads to intense iron accumulation. The disease onset usually occurs before the third decade of life and causes severe dysfunction in various organs. The most classical clinical findings are hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, cardiomyopathy, liver fibrosis, glycemic changes, arthropathy and skin pigmentation. However, secondary hypothyroidism is not reported in these patients. Juvenile hemochromatosis has an autosomal recessive inheritance ...

Polypropylene (PP) is a multifunctional and widely applied polymer. Nevertheless, its low energy surface and poor adhesion are well-known and might impair some prospective applications. Aiming to overcome these limitations, PP composites can be applied as a tool to enhance PP surface energy and then increase its practical adhesion. In this work, Kraft lignin (KL) was chemically modified and blended with PP. In short, KL was hydroxypropylated and further reacted with acetic anhydride (A-oxi-KL) or maleic ...

Clamps or "U" bolts for springs in heavy trucks made of SAE 1552 C-Mn steel presented cracks during the fabrication process by flattening and bending. The cracks initiated in the external face of curves bended, where the tensile stress was maximum. The surface of cracking showed a large portion of brittle fracture by cleavage. The microstructure consisted of fine pearlite (major part), pro-eutectoid ferrite and traces of bainite. The bar used to fabricate the clamps were probably hot rolled and air ...

Voice is produced by the vibration of the vocal folds expressed by its fundamental frequency (Hz), whereas the formants (F) are fundamental frequency multiples, indicating amplification zones of the vowels in the vocal tract. We have shown that lifetime isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD) causes high pitch voice, with higher values of most formant frequencies, maintaining a prepuberal acoustic prediction. The objectives of this work were to verify the effects of the therapy with a semi-occluded ...
