The article describes the new psychophysiological test, as well as the evaluation formulas and application methods. This test makes it possible to obtain information in the conditions of long cruise about the performance capabilities of seamen who went through infectious diseases in order to study their readaptation and rehabilitation process. Traditional tests of Landolt's rings or Anfimov's letters don't dispose these possibilities. The new test provide information not only about visual analyser, but also concerning different psychophysiological characteristics of a patient.

To accelerate the water dissociation in the Volmer step and alleviate the destruction of bubbles to the physical structure of catalysts during the alkaline hydrogen evolution, an integrated electrode of cobalt oxide and cobalt-molybdenum oxide grown on Ni foam, named CoO-Co2Mo3O8, is designed. This integrated electrode enhances the catalyst-substrate interaction confirmed by a micro-indentation tester, and thus hinders the destruction of the physical structure of catalysts caused by bubbles. Electrochemical testing shows the occurrence of a surface reconstruction of the integrated electrode, and CoO is transformed into Co(OH)2, denoted as Co(OH)2-Co2Mo3O8.

Background: With a decline of 17β-estradiol (E2) at menopause, E2 has been implicated in the accompanied loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. We aimed at characterizing transcriptomic responses of skeletal muscle to E2 in female mice, testing the hypothesis that genes and pathways related to contraction and maintenance of mass are differentially expressed in ovariectomized mice with and without E2 treatment.
Methods: Soleus and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles from C57BL/6 ovariectomized mice treated with placebo (OVX) or E2 (OVX + E2) for 60 days, or from skeletal muscle-specific ERα knockout (skmERαKO) mice and wild-type littermates (skmERαWT), were used for genome-wide expression profiling, quantitative real-time PCR and immunoblotting.

Background And Aims: The performance of non-invasive liver tests (NITs) is known to vary across settings and subgroups. We systematically evaluated whether the performance of three NITs in detecting advanced fibrosis in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) varies with age, sex, body mass index (BMI), type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) status or liver enzymes.
Methods: Data from 586 adult LITMUS Metacohort participants with histologically characterised MASLD were included.

We have developed a portfolio of antibody-based modules that can be prefabricated as standalone units and snapped together in plug-and-play fashion to create uniquely powerful multifunctional assemblies. The basic building blocks are derived from multiple pairs of native and modified Fab scaffolds and protein G (PG) variants engineered by phage display to introduce high pair-wise specificity. The variety of possible Fab-PG pairings provides a highly orthogonal system that can be exploited to perform challenging cell biology operations in a straightforward manner.

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM), a significant chronic complication of diabetes, manifests as myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and other pathological alterations that substantially impact cardiac function and elevate the risk of cardiovascular diseases and patient mortality. Myocardial energy metabolism disturbances in DbCM, encompassing glucose, fatty acid, ketone body and lactate metabolism, are crucial factors that contribute to the progression of DbCM. In recent years, novel protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) such as lactylation, β-hydroxybutyrylation, and succinylation have been demonstrated to be intimately associated with the myocardial energy metabolism process, and in conjunction with acetylation, they participate in the regulation of protein activity and gene expression activity in cardiomyocytes.
