Two models of dark triad traits and self-regulation dilemma predicting IP theft through self-deception by Yeo, Diana Mui Kheng

“…The findings further research in insider threat by empirically providing evidence of the psychological influences in the decision-making process that might lead an employee to commit acts of IP theft. Aside from contributing to the literature on insider threat, results of this research integrating self-regulation dilemma and Dark Triad traits to the mediation of IP theft through self-deceptive cognitive strategies can contribute to preventive intervention programs that organizations can develop to contain insider threat.…”

Preparation for and performance of a Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm experiment on board the International Space Station by Flores, Pamela, Schauer, Rylee, McBride, Samantha A., Luo, Jiaqi, Hoehn, Carla, Doraisingam, Shankini, Widhalm, Dean, Chadha, Jasmin, Selman, Leah, Mueller, Daniel Wyn, Floyd, Shannon, Rupert, Mark, Gorti, Sridahr, Reagan, Shawn, Varanasi, Kripa K., Koch, Christina, Meir, Jessica U., Muecklich, Frank, Moeller, Ralf, Stodieck, Louis, Countryman, Stefanie, Zea, Luis

“…Additionally, we describe the performance of the experiment on board the ISS, including crew activities, use of assets, temperature profile, and experiment timeline; all leading to a successful spaceflight experiment. Hence, this manuscript focuses on the steps implemented to ensure the experiment would be ready for spaceflight, as well as ISS and ground operations, with results presented elsewhere. …”

Fluid-fluid displacement in porous-media microfluidics by Qiu, Yu

“…In the imbibition regime, we show that surface roughness promotes that the wetting liquid preferentially advances within the roughness layer. The formation of a leading film stabilizes the displacement front as the flow rate increases, which would otherwise— that is, in a smooth confinement—become fractal. …”

Changes in cerebrospinal fluid balance of TNF and TNF receptors in naïve multiple sclerosis patients : early involvement in compartmentalised intrathecal inflammation by Magliozzi, Roberta, Pezzini, Francesco, Pucci, Mairi, Rossi, Stefania, Facchiano, Francesco, Marastoni, Damiano, Montagnana, Martina, Lippi, Giuseppe, Reynolds, Richard, Calabrese, Massimiliano

“…An imbalance of TNF signalling in the inflammatory milieu generated by meningeal immune cell infiltrates in the subarachnoid space in multiple sclerosis (MS), and its animal model may lead to increased cortical pathology. In order to explore whether this feature may be present from the early stages of MS and may be associated with the clinical outcome, the protein levels of TNF, sTNF-R1 and sTNF-R2 were assayed in CSF collected from 122 treatment-naïve MS patients and 36 subjects with other neurological conditions at diagnosis. …”

Public opinion trend analysis on nuclear energy via aspect-based sentiment analysis methods by Huang, Fan

“…The study's limitations are the imperfect understanding of neutral sentiments, the possible wrong predictions of the ABSA BERT model, and possible automatic aspect labelling algorithm errors. Those above would lead to bias, indicating that the final trend analysis result may not perfectly present the actual public opinion trends. …”

Tumor-targeted nano-assemblies for energy-blocking cocktail therapy in cancer by Chen, Manling, Liu, Yidu, Li, Yang, Liu, Xue

“…This dual action significantly reduces ATP production in tumor cells, leading to apoptosis. In human lung tumor cells, the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2-DG@MA-dots was significantly lower than that of either metformin or 2-DG alone, showing a nearly 100-fold and 30-fold reduction in IC50 values to 11.78 µg mL-1, from 1159 µg mL-1 and 351.20 µg mL-1, respectively. …”

Autoinhibition releasing provides a platform for developing p21-activated kinase-1 (PAK1) activators for hypertrophic heart diseases by He, Y

“…Additionally, to get further insight into the therapeutic effect of pharmacological PAK1 activation, functional studies were undertaken using selected lead compounds. PAK1 activators demonstrated substantial efficacy in preventing isoprenaline (ISO)-induced hypertrophy and exhibited the capacity to regress pre-existing cellular hypertrophy following ISO treatment in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. …”
