With the increasingly strict domestic emission regulations, how to reduce diesel emission without affecting its output power has become a hot and important research topic.Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, the combined use of methanol and Al2O3 nanoparticles plays a unique role in Western Pads Tough 1 promoting combustion and red
Lower family income during childhood is related to increased rates of adolescent depression, though the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood.Evidence suggests that individuals with depression demonstrate hypoactivation in brain regions involved in reward learning and decision-making processes (e.g., portions of the prefrontal cortex).Separat
BackgroundVarious enhanced patient instructions (EPIs) have been used for bowel preparation (BP) and our previous meta-analysis also demonstrated the efficacy of EPIs in increasing the colonic polyp and adenoma detection rates; however, the optimal method for adequate BP has not yet been developed.ObjectiveWe performed a network meta-analysis to de
Drought, cold and salinity are the major environmental stresses that limit agricultural productivity.NAC transcription factors regulate the stress response in plants.Pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata) is an important cucurbit vegetable crop and it has strong resistance to abiotic stress; however, the biological functions of stress-related NAC genes in th
The focus of this investigation was to constrain the porewater chemistry from tracer and ion profiles in a 128 m thick clay-rich sequence of Quaternary sediments comprising the clay, silt and fine sand formation in the North China Plain.Porewater are much more saline (1.1-71.0 g/L) than the lower confined groundwaters (0.3-1.3g/L).Chloride profiles
