"Balancing" the Block Davidson-Liu Algorithm.

Published: July 2016

We describe a simple modification ("balancing") of the block Davidson-Liu eigenvalue algorithm which allows the norms of the Krylov search directions to decrease naturally as convergence is approached. In the context of integral-direct configuration interaction singles and time-dependent density functional theory, this provides for efficient utilization of density-based screening. Tests within the TeraChem GPGPU code exhibit speedups of ∼2× on systems with up to 1500 atoms, with negligible loss in accuracy.

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a highly arrhythmogenic syndrome triggered by stress, primarily linked to gain-of-function point mutations in the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2). Flecainide, as an effective therapy for CPVT, is a known blocker of the surface-membrane Na channel, also affecting the intracellular RyR2 channel. The therapeutic relevance of the flecainide-RyR2 interaction remains controversial, as flecainide blocks only the RyR2 current flowing in the opposite direction to the physiological Ca release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR).

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of M3-DPPE liposomal nanoparticles encapsulated with mRNA encoding cytokines (M3-mRNAs) in targeting macrophages for the treatment of inflammation-induced joint injury.

Methods: , M3-mRNAs were administered to peritoneal exudate macrophages (PEMs), and the uptake was assessed using flow cytometry. The mechanism of uptake was investigated by blocking the CLEC12A pathway with M3-SiCLEC12A and observing CD206-mediated endocytosis.

The mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) is a nuclear transcription factor that plays a critical role in regulating fluid, electrolytes, blood pressure, and hemodynamic stability. In conditions such as chronic kidney disease (CKD) and heart failure (HF), MR overactivation leads to increased salt and water retention, inflammatory and fibrotic gene expression, and organ injury. The MR is essential for transcriptional regulation and is implicated in metabolic, proinflammatory, and pro-fibrotic pathways.

In the face of declining crop yields, inefficient fertilizer usage, nutrient depletion, and limited water availability, the efficiency of conventional NPK fertilizers is a critical issue in India. The hypothesis of this study posits that nano-nitrogen could enhance growth and photosynthetic efficiency in crop plants compared to conventional fertilizers. For this, a randomized block design (RBD) field experiment was conducted with six treatments: no nitrogen (T1), 100% N through urea (T2), and varying levels of N replacement with nano-nitrogen (33%: T3; 50%: T4; 66%: T5; and 100%: T6).

Introduction/objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) could present with slow ventricular-response; bradycardia could facilitate the emergence of AF. The conviction that one "does not succumb" from bradycardia as an escape rhythm will emerge unless one sustains a fatal injury following syncope is in stark difference with ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VA), which may promptly cause cardiac arrest. However, this is not always the case, as a life-threatening situation may emerge during the bradycardic episode, i.
