The toxicity associated with nickel (II) and chromium (VI) is mainly due to generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) with subsequent oxidative deterioration of biological macromolecules.Both nickel and chromium can generate free radicals (FR) directly from molecular oxygen in a two step process to produce superoxide anion and in continued proces
ObjectivesThis study examines the impact of extreme temperatures on hospital utilization and public health insurance program spending in a country with no universal health coverage.MethodsUsing nationwide U.S.county-level panel data and a fixed effects model, we estimate the impact of annual variations in the number of hot and cold days on hospital
Recent studies suggest that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) neurons in the parabrachial nucleus (PBN) represent aversive information and signal a general alarm to the forebrain.If CGRP neurons serve as a true general alarm, their activation would modulate both passive and active defensive behaviors tashi bharucha depending on the magnitude a
Abstract Background Styrax tonkinensis (Pierre) Craib ex Hartwich faces challenges in expanding in the south provinces of Yangtze River region due to climate extremes like flood-drought abrupt alternation (FDAA) caused by global warming.Low tolerance to waterlogging and drought restricts its growth in this vegemite pop art area.To study its antioxi
This hastu goyal study surveys and attempts to interpret the different behavioral interactions between the solitary wasp Liris nigra V.d.L, and crickets of the species Gryllulus domesticus L.in different hunting situations.Significant variations are recorded, some of which are predictable, others not.Wasp-cricket interactions and responses become m
