Paracrine provision of lipids in the immune system by Pond, C

“…By supplying appropriate fatty acids to lymph nodes and dendritic cells, perinodal adipocytes intervene between the diet and the immune systems nutrition and partially emancipate it from fluctuations in abundance and composition of dietary lipids. Site-specific differences in the composition of lipids taken up from contiguous adipocytes create further dendritic cell diversity. …”

Environmental change and connectivity drive coral reef fish abundance in the Western Indian Ocean by Warmuth, LM, Kelly, S, Samoilys, MA, Popova, E, Head, CEI, Bonsall, MB

“…We designed a proportional oceanographic connectivity metric describing the relative strength of connectivity between all WIO coral reefs and each survey site. We created statistical models for four trophic groups: grazers and detritivores, herbivorous excavators, corallivores, and primary piscivores across 51 sites in the WIO. …”

“But some were more equal than others:” exploring inequality at Neolithic Çatalhöyük by Twiss, KC, Bogaard, A, Haddow, S, Milella, M, Taylor, JS, Veropoulidou, R, Kay, K, Knüsel, CJ, Tsoraki, C, Vasić, M, Pearson, J, Busacca, G, Mazzucato, C, Pochron, S

“…We perceive broadly similar access to staple foods, but not to goods less directly related to survival; relatively elevated income inequality during the middle portion of the site’s occupation, plausibly deliberately tamped down; and no evidence for institutionalized or lasting economic or social inequality. …”

Evaluating efficiency of nondestructive detection of flaws in concrete by Sutan, N. Mohamed, Jaafar, M.S.

“…Results of our tests indicate that both methods can be used in determining depths of flaws in concrete and in performing on-site tests. The accuracy of both methods proved to be better in tests of stronger concretes, and the detection probability ranged from 51.81 to 99.8% after aging during 3 to 28 days under full load, respectively.…”

Driven Factors to Sustainable Paddy Farming Production in Malaysia by Zahari, Fadhilah, Othman, Zakirah, Abu, Noor Hidayah, Salleh, Nurul Azita

“…Using interview as data collection method, case samples were selected from various SRI paddy site in Kedah. The findings indicated that implementing SRI practices in organic paddy cultivation had caused the value chain to be different from conventional paddy value chain in terms of actor and effect of middle man subject to the small scale paddy production. …”
