Programmed cell death, or apoptosis, is a highly conserved cellular process that is crucial for tissue homeostasis under normal development as well as environmental stress.Misregulation of apoptosis is linked to many developmental defects and diseases such as tumour formation, autoimmune diseases and neurological disorders.In this paper, we show a
This paper proposes a nonsingular terminal sliding mode control scheme with fast fixed-time convergence for a class of second-order nonlinear systems in the TRANQUIL SLEEP presence of matched uncertainties and perturbations.First, based on fixed-time stability theory, a novel stable system is proposed.Then, using the fixed-time stable system, a fas
Compulsory drug detoxification treatment (CDT) is currently the major drug rehabilitation modality in China, and drug users often suffer from extraordinary levels of stress during CDT, leading to a high prevalence of anxiety symptoms.This study assesses anxiety symptoms of the drug users undergoing CDT and explores the associated factors.A cross-se
We propose a simple scheme to compress an electron beam with an optical laser, which can potentially achieve a bunch length much shorter than what is currently available with a conventional radio-frequency technique.Instead of an energy chirp, Collections the optical laser induces an energy modulation whose amplitude linearly changes along the long
The main purpose of the study is to identify the thin-bed reservoirs of the Eastern Folded Belt (Sylhet and Bandarban) and characterize them with diligence.A detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis has been carried out.It is based on thin-section petrographic analyses of sandstone samples.These samples are from the reservoir horizons of the
