This study employs DNS of two-phase flows to enhance primary atomization understanding and modeling to be used in numerical simulation in RANS or LES framework. In particular, the work has been aimed at improving the information on the liquid-gas interface evolution for modeling approaches, such as the Eulerian–Lagrangian Spray Atomization (ELSA) framework. Even though this approach has been already successfully employed to describe the complete liquid atomization process from the primary region ...

Malaria elimination needs a concentration of activities towards identification of residual transmission foci and intensification of efforts to eliminate the last few infections, located in so-called 'malaria hotspots'. Previous work on characterizing malaria transmission hotspots has mainly focused on falciparum malaria and especially on symptomatic cases, while the malaria reservoir is expected to be mainly concentrated in the asymptomatic human population when transmission is low. For Plasmodium ...

Serological markers for exposure to different Plasmodium species have recently been used in multiplex immunoassays based on the Luminex technology. However, interpretation of the assay results requires consideration of the half-life of specific antibodies against these markers. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to document the half-life of malaria specific serological makers, as well as assessing the sensitivity of these markers to pick up recent changes in malaria exposure.A recently ...

BackgroundAlthough effective topical repellents provide personal protection against malaria, whether mass use of topical repellents in addition to long-lasting insecticidal nets can contribute to a further decline of malaria is not known, particularly in areas where outdoor transmission occurs. We aimed to assess the epidemiological efficacy of a highly effective topical repellent in addition to long-lasting insecticidal nets in reducing malaria prevalence in this setting.MethodsA cluster randomised ...

It is an old-standing debate in the field of speech communication to determine whether speech perception involves auditory or multisensory representations and processing, independently on any procedural knowledge about the production of speech units or on the contrary if it is based on a recoding of the sensory input in terms of articulatory gestures, as posited in the Motor Theory of Speech Perception. The discovery of mirror neurons in the last 15 years has strongly renewed the interest for motor ...

The locomotor stimulatory effects induced by caffeine (1,3,7‐trimethylxanthine) in rodents have been attributed to antagonism of adenosine A 1 and A 2A receptors. Little is known about its locomotor depressant effects seen when acutely administered at high doses. The roles of adenosine A 1 and A 2A receptors in these activities were investigated using a Digiscan actimeter in experiments carried out in mice. Besides caffeine, the A 2A antagonist SCH 58261 (5‐amino‐7‐(β‐phenylethyl)‐2‐(8‐furyl)pyrazolo[ ...

β-Arrestins are proteins that bind phosphorylated heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and contribute to the desensitization of GPCRs by uncoupling the signal transduction process. Resensitization of GPCR responsiveness involves agonist-mediated receptor sequestration. Overexpression of β-arrestins in human embryonic kidney cells rescued the sequestration of β 2 -adrenergic receptor (β 2 AR) mutants defective in their ability to sequester, an effect enhanced by simultaneous ...

The process of agonist-promoted internalization (sequestration) of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is intimately linked to the regulation of GPCR responsiveness. Following agonist-mediated desensitization, sequestration of GPCR is presumably associated with the dephosphorylation and recycling of functional receptors. However, the exact mechanisms responsible for GPCR sequestration, even for the prototypic β2-adrenergic receptor (β2AR), have remained controversial. We demonstrate here that dynamin, ...

Changes in rat parotid gland function were measured between 3 and 30 days following exposure to 1800 R of137 Cs irradiation to the head. Glandular fluid secretion capability as indicated by volume of secretion, maximum rate of secretion, and duration of secretion following pilocarpine stimulation decreased concomitantly with gland weight following irradiation. Thus gland weight is probably indicative of residual glandular potential for fluid secretion following irradiation. The relation between ...

This article aims to discuss, from a critical theory perspective, the apparent paradox between the ability to monitor and control made possible by Big Data and the belief in the latter’s emancipatory potential. The goal is to assess to what extent the data, tools and methods characteristic of Big Data constitute self-regulation processes that are similar to a dynamics of governance and surveillance. We will analyze this phenomenon on the basis of two concepts inherited from the critical tradition ...

This study describes the temporal fluctuations of doliolid populations sampled in the Bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer (Northwestern Mediterranean Sea) from 1967 to 1990. The abundance level of doliolids (strongly dominated by Doliolum nationalis and Dolioletta gegenbauri phorozooids) was estimated weekly according to Frontier's (1969) ordinal scale. Population abundance shows important interannual variations. The series displays a clear upward trend from the late 1960s to the early 1980s; thereafter, the ...

Oxidative 1,2- and 1,3- alkyl shifts mediated by a hypervalent iodine reagent were performed on simple and inexpensive phenol derivatives. These transpositions enable rapid redesign of the main aromatic skeleton to generate good yields of highly functionalized scaffolds containing a prochiral dienone system, a quaternary carbon center connected to as many as four sp2 centers, and a carbonyl functionality or precursor. An efficient enantioselective version of this process resulting in the formation ...

Investigation of Ge x Te 100− x amorphous films deposited by thermal co‐evaporation in a large zone of compositions revealed the presence of a minimum in the evolution of the refractive index in the range x ∈ [22;35]. Such a minimum has a great impact on the control of the film refractive index, an undeniable advantage for the manufacture of infrared waveguides. Indeed a similar fluctuation in the film composition in this zone during deposition results in a decrease in refractive index fluctuation ...

In this work, we investigate an original strategy in order to derive a statistical modeling of the interface in gas-liquid two-phase flows through geometrical variables. The con- tribution is two-fold. First it participates in the theoretical design of a unified reduced- order model for the description of two regimes: a disperse phase in a carrier fluid and two separated phases. The first idea is to propose a statistical description of the in- terface relying on geometrical properties such as the ...

Motivated by the relatively wide range of values published hitherto, we offer a new, reliable method for determination of manganese in hair from unexposed human subjects. By using a mini-autoclave, we have developed a method that obviates loss of manganese during digestion and, thanks to use of a Teflon receptacle and rigorous methodology, contamination has been minimized. We used Zeeman flameless atomic absorption spectrometry, with the method of standard additions, for quantification. Within-run ...

The endothelin (ET) system has emerged as a novel target for hypertension treatment where a medical need persists despite availability of several pharmacological classes, including renin angiotensin system (RAS) blockers. ET receptor antagonism has demonstrated efficacy in preclinical models of hypertension, especially under low-renin conditions and in hypertensive patients. We investigated the pharmacology of aprocitentan (N-[5-(4-bromophenyl)-6-[2-[(5-bromo-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]ethoxy]-4-pyrimidinyl]- ...

Malaria transmission is highly heterogeneous, especially in low endemic countries, such as Cambodia. This results in geographical clusters of residual transmission in the dry, low transmission season, which can fuel the transmission to wider areas or populations during the wet season. A better understanding of spatial clustering of malaria can lead to a more efficient, targeted strategy to reduce malaria transmission. This study aims to evaluate the potential of the use of serological markers to ...

Treatment of phenols or anilines containing a sulfonyl group in the presence of a hypervalent iodine reagent promotes a formal dearomatizing [2 + 3] cycloaddition reaction on unactivated benzene and naphthalene derivatives. This process occurs via an intramolecular nucleophilic addition to the Wheland species generated during the oxidative activation. Subsequent treatment under acidic conditions readily transforms the tricyclic system into a biaryl via a formal cross-coupling process.
