Toward minimizing bacterial colonization of surfaces, we present a one-step etching technique that renders aluminum alloys with micro- and nano-scale roughness.Such a multi-scale surface topography exhibited enhanced antibacterial effect against a wide range of pathogens.Multi-scale topography of commercially grade pure aluminum killed 97% of Esche
This paper employs a cross-country regression to investigate the role of education in the growth of nations.The sample includes 101 countries over the period from 1980 to 2015.We have found that education, in general, has significant effects on economic growth.For Cereals the robustness of the results, several sensitivity tests were conducted using
The paper deals with edifications expressed in Armenian fables of the XII–XIII centuries.These narratives describe common situations of overcoming serious difficulties, interrelations between authorities and people, and paradoxical unpredictability of existence.Three main topics presented in the narratives have been analyzed – the attit
Abstract Background While brain asymmetry has been a fascinating issue in neuroscience, the critical mechanism remains to be elucidated.Based on some Microwave High Voltage Diode Set index cases with asymmetric 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) uptake in leucine-rich glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1)-antibody encephaliti
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the most commonly diagnosed digestive system malignancy with a dismal survival outcome.The prognostic value of ubiquitination-related genes (URGs) in GC has yet to be discovered.Methods: Two GC cohort datasets were obtained from the Cancer Genome Atlas Program (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases.Ste
