Successful mass drug administration (MDA) campaigns have brought several countries near the point of Lymphatic Filariasis (LF) elimination. A diagnostic tool is needed to determine when the prevalence levels have decreased to a point that MDA campaigns can be discontinu...

We consider the echo effects, which can take place in graphene and bigraphene (bilayer graphene), when the system of relativistic Landau levels in a quantizing magnetic field appears. Graphene (bigraphene) is examined theoretically in the long-wave approximation near t...

Mobile phones have evolved into powerful image and video processing devices equipped with high-resolution cameras, color displays, and hardware-accelerated graphics. They are also increasingly equipped with a global positioning system and connected to broadband wireless...

International audience; High salt intake is a major risk factor of hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Improving knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to salt intake in the general population is a key component of salt reduction strategies. The objectiv...

All aspects of transcription and its regulation involve dynamic events. The basal transcription machinery and regulatory components are dynamically recruited to their target genes, and dynamic interactions of transcription factors with chromatin—and with each other—play...

Abstract Using the cell model approach, a distribution of the equilibrium electric potential is obtained within an electrolyte solution being the continuous phase of a concentrated disperse system. The distribution is a solution of the Poisson–Boltzmann problem for a sp...

The capacity of state agencies varies greatly among Latin American states, but this significant variation remains largely understudied in political science. The few studies that do analyze this phenomenon primarily concentrate on domestic causes as explanations for the ...
