Approximate molecular calculations via standard Kohn-Sham density functional theory are exactly reproduced by performing self-consistent calculations on isolated fragments via partition density functional theory [P. Elliott, K. Burke, M. H. Cohen, and A. Wasserman, Phys. Rev. A 82, 024501 (2010)]. We illustrate this with the binding curves of small diatomic molecules. We find that partition energies are in all cases qualitatively similar and numerically close to actual binding energies. We discuss qualitative features of the associated partition potentials.

Melatonin modulation of the chronic dexamethasone-induced adrenal insufficiency.

Purpose: Chronic exposure to synthetic glucocorticoids/GCs, widely in use to treat many diseases, may compromise the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal/HPA axis leading to a condition of adrenal insufficiency/AI. This study demonstrates the efficacy of the melatonin/MEL in amelioration of chronic dexamethasone (DEX)-induced AI.
Methods: Mice (Parkes Strain/Male/8 weeks old/30-33 g) were maintained in four groups (10 mice/group) for 30 days: Group 1/Control received intraperitoneal (i.
K1 channels enable myelinated axons to transmit spikes reliably without spiking ectopically.

Action potentials (spikes) are regenerated at each node of Ranvier during saltatory transmission along a myelinated axon. The high density of voltage-gated sodium channels required by nodes to reliably transmit spikes increases the risk of ectopic spike generation in the axon. Here we show that ectopic spiking is avoided because K1 channels prevent nodes from responding to slow depolarization; instead, axons respond selectively to rapid depolarization because K1 channels implement a high-pass filter.

Background: Comprehensive management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) requires seamless treatment across institutions, including intensive care centers and local clinics. However, maintaining guideline-directed medical therapy remains challenging. One promising option to improve the situation may be the implementation of regional collaborative clinical pathways.
