Effect of inflammation on apolipoprotein A-1(apoA-1) secretion by intestinal cells. by Yu, Kenneth.

“…In contrast, pro-inflammatory drugs such as lipopolysaccharides and endotoxin appeared to decrease intestinal secretion of apoA-1. These results indicate that aspirin and paracetamol, two of the most widely used medications for fevers and headaches, may have beneficial effects on the metabolism of high-density-lipoproteins(HDL),the so-called" good cholesterol" by increasing the rate of apoA-1 secretion by the intestine. …”

The classification of 1D `perovskites' by Wong, Walter Pei De, Hanna, John V., Grimsdale, Andrew C.

“…The classification of perovskites has been unambiguous in the discussion of 3D and layered 2D perovskites due to the dimensional constraints. However, in 1D perovskites, the additional degrees of freedom have resulted in a large number of possible structural configurations. …”

Metaverse for virtual education 1 by Lau, Wynne Chen Yi

“…Several studies have indicated that the use of higher quality VR equipment provides a more immersive experience for its users, however, not all education institutes have the budget to invest in the more expensive and higher quality VR equipment for every one of their students. Hence, this project focuses on the development of a metaverse prototype for applications in virtual education to help educational institutes manage the use of the limited amount of VR equipment. …”
