Anti-ApoA-1 antibodies (AAA1) are independently associated with cardiovascular disease, which remains a major cause of death in individuals with obesity.

Article Synopsis
  • Understanding the performance of internal combustion engines is essential for improving emissions and fuel efficiency, particularly in urban settings like Shiraz city, where factors like working days versus holidays play a significant role.
  • * The research involved collecting data on vehicle speed and analyzing driving patterns during peak traffic times, utilizing methods like K-means clustering and principal component analysis to create representative driving cycles for testing.
  • * Findings revealed that fuel consumption was about 8% higher on holidays due to increased driving times and speeds, which also led to a notable rise in CO and NOx emissions, while HC emissions were higher on working days, underscoring the need for optimizing driving behavior to promote sustainable transport.
