Highly potent dipeptidyl peptidase 8/9 (DPP8/9) inhibitors designed via relative binding free energy calculations
Dipeptidyl peptidases (DPP) 8 and 9 are emerging enzymatic drug targets with suggested applications in acute myeloid leukaemia and HIV infection, among others. In this work, we optimised a well-known reference DPP8/9 ...
Programmable Shape-Directed Optical Binding of Plasmonic Nanoparticles
Controlling the organization of plasmonic nanoparticles with optical forces is essential for designing reconfigurable light-responsive materials. However, the role of particle shape in determining optical binding geometries ...
The Effect of a physical activity program on the total number of primary care visits in inactive patients: A 15-month randomized controlled trial
Background: Effective promotion of exercise could result in substantial savings in healthcare cost expenses in terms of direct medical costs, such as the number of medical appointments. However, this is hampered by our ...
Credit cycles as predictors of labor market slack: Evidence from the U․S․
This paper empirically studies the relationship between credit and unemployment fluctuations in the U.S. economy for the period 1955–2023. Drawing on the business cycle literature that focuses on changes in output, we model ...
The validity of subjective assessments of deprivation: Can it be true that poor people are happier than those who are well off?

Structure of a barrel-stave pore formed by magainin-2 reveals anion selectivity and zipper-mediated assembly
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are ubiquitous weapons of all higher organisms to suppress antimicrobial growth. Despite intensive research, the killing mechanism of these peptides after interaction with the bacterial cell ...
Algorithm for temporomandibular disorders with osteopathic manipulative therapy: An expert consensus
Objective The purpose of this study was to create a consensus algorithm for the osteopathic approach to temporomandibular dysfunctions. Methods A conventional Delphi method of at least 3 rounds of questionnaires was ...
Attributable mortality to candidiasis in non-neutropenic critically Ill patients in the ICU and a post-mortem study
Candidiasis remains one of the most challenging infections to treat in critical care, due to its diagnostic difficulties and uncertainty regarding whether it can be directly related to the death of patients with multiorgan ...
Functionalised gold nanoparticles using abietane diterpenoids from Plectranthus grandidentatus Gürke for cancer therapy
Nanoparticles (NPs) are very small particles with distinct properties stemming from their nanometric size and large surface area, setting them apart from bulk materials. NPs provide many benefits, such as high drug loading ...
Non-thermal plasma CO2 conversion enhanced by CeO2-doped BaTiO3 and internal electrode cooling
This work investigates the combined impact of using cerium oxide (CeO2) as a catalyst and internal electrode cooling on CO2 conversion into CO in a non-thermal plasma reactor packed with barium titanate (BaTiO3). BaTiO3 ...
Neurodevelopmental Outcomes of Mycotoxins Exposure and Effect on Brain Development in Infants and Young Children
This comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify relevant studies on mycotoxins and brain development in children. Existing studies suggest that mycotoxin exposure during critical periods of brain development ...
