Abstract Background Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and meniscus tears are common knee injuries.Despite the high rate of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) following these injuries, the contributing factors remain unclear.In this study, we characterized the immune cell profiles of normal and injured joints at the time of ACL and meniscal surgeri
Humans make countless choices every day that affect their health, safety, and finances.Despite the high stakes, decision-making is often irrational from the viewpoint of traditional economics, i.e., the choices made are contrary to existing preferences.This leads Grooming to negative consequences for individuals and to inefficiencies in the exchang
Terrestrial transport biofuels differ in their ability to replace fossil fuels.When both the conversion of solar energy into biomass and the life cycle inputs of fossil fuels are considered, ethanol from sugarcane and biodiesel from palm oil do relatively well, if compared with ethanol from corn, sugar beet or wheat and biodiesel from rapeseed.When
In this Fisetin work we investigate the triboelectric properties of Carbon Quantum Dots (CQDs) films for potential application in triboelectric generators.CQDs were deposited on silicon wafers, using spin on techniques.Device performance was estimated in sliding mode experiments, where the CQDs-surface was sliding on top of a flexible substrate.The
The food industry generates huge amounts of food by-products annually, most of which are considered waste.But these by-products may contain nutrients of interest and have a low-cost price.Capitalizing on these by-products is of interest to both producers and consumers, thus supporting the circular economy.In this context, the current Fisetin paper
