Mapping green technologies literature published between 1995 and 2019: a scientometric review from the perspective of the manufacturing industry.

This study presents a comprehensive literature review and gives an insight into the increasing research trends that are based on the discipline of green technology (GTs) in the manufacturing industry. Prior research in this field indicates that there is a scarcity of research on the topic. Therefore, this study seeks to draft a multi-perspective literature review that is based on GTs in the manufacturing industry.

Antibacterial and antifungal activities of the polyphenolic fractions isolated from the seed coat of Abrus precatorius and Caesalpinia crista.

Crude seed coat extracts from Abrus precatorius and Caesalpinia crista were purified into four different fractions namely phenolic acids, flavonols, flavanols and anthocyanin which were then examined for their polyphenol contents and antimicrobial potentials. The fractions derived from seed coat of A. precatorius were found more potent with high phenolic and flavonoid contents as compared to C.

Use of natalizumab in multiple sclerosis: current perspectives.

Introduction: Natalizumab is an efficacious monoclonal antibody approved for use in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). Multiple studies have demonstrated reduced relapse rate, decreased disability progression and prolonged disease-free intervals with natalizumab use. However, natalizumab is associated with an increased risk of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), thus restricting its widespread use with populations at high risk for developing PML.

Clinical relevance of brain atrophy assessment in multiple sclerosis. Implications for its use in a clinical routine.

Introduction: Brain atrophy measurement in multiple sclerosis (MS) has become an important outcome for determining patients at risk for developing physical and cognitive disability.

Areas Covered: In this article, we discuss the methodological issues related to using this MRI metric routinely, in a clinical setting. Understanding trajectories of annualized whole brain, gray and white matter, thalamic volume loss, and enlargement of ventricular space in specific MS phenotypes is becoming increasingly important.
