Atenolol, a cardioselective β1-blocker, exhibits efficacy in treating cardiovascular diseases. We conducted a single-center, randomized, open, single-dose, 2-preparation, 2-cycle, 2-sequence, double-crossover trial with a 7-day washout period to investigate the pharmacokinetics, bioequivalence (BE), and safety of test and reference atenolol tablets (25 mg) in healthy Chinese volunteers. Forty-eight healthy participants were randomized into the fasting and fed arms.

However, there are limited researches on the evaluation and comparative study of the stability of these two types of rock pillars in twin tunnels. This paper introduces the yield approach index (YAI) as a measure to assess the stability of rock pillar in twin tunnels with small clearance, and various influencing factors including side pressure coefficient (SPC), stress release rate (SRR), and the thickness of rock pillar (characterised by the ratio of rock pillar thickness to tunnel diameter, RPT/TD) are considered in the analysis.

The trial was an open, randomized, 4-period, replicated crossover scheme, and 36 volunteers were recruited separately for the fasting and fed arms. Volunteers were randomly administered a single dose of the test or reference formulation (10 mg) orally, followed by a 5-day washout period.

The scaled-down model cannot reflect the laws of physics. Therefore, carrying out hypersonic aerodynamic tests using large-scale aircraft models is an urgent difficulty and the key link in the research of hypersonic aircraft.

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated and rod- or ovoid-shaped bacterium, designated as strain S4J41, was isolated from Antarctic intertidal sediment. The isolate grew at 0-37 °C and with 0.5-10 % (w/v) NaCl.

The results showed that most of them exhibited a potent ability to inhibit both ChEs, with a high selectivity towards AChE. In particular, compounds and had the greatest inhibitory abilities for AChE, with IC values of 1.
