Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most common degenerative diseases, and its core feature is the degeneration and damage of articular cartilage.The cartilage degeneration of KOA is due to the destruction of dynamic balance caused by the activation of chondrocytes by various factors, with oxidative stress playing an important role in the patho
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an alternative or adjunct therapy to treat chronic pain, a prevalent and clinically challenging condition.Although SCS has substantial clinical success, the therapy is still prone to failures, including lead breakage, lead migration, and poor pain relief.The goal of this study was to develop a computational model of
Ultradisperse slag suspensions in aqueous and water-polymer phases have been studied.Disperse systems main stability factors applied to the ultradisperse slag Ski de fond - Homme - Skis - Back country have been considered.Chemical equations for the processes running in the aqueous and water-polymer disperse phases with slag particles have been prov
BackgroundAlthough reduced glutathione (rGSH) is decreased in obese mice and humans, block of GSH synthesis by buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) results in a lean, insulin-sensitive phenotype.Data is lacking about the effect of BSO on GSH precursors, cysteine and glutamate.Plasma total cysteine (tCys) is positively associated with stearoyl-coenzyme A de
