Association between extreme heat exposure and acute physiological change among steel mill workers in Terengganu, Malaysia by Che Hasan, Nurul Atikah

“…The results from the study also shows there was no significant correlation between WBGT Index and acute health score (r=-0.5, p=0.86).The regression analysis suggested sweating (p<0.05), age (p<0.05), duration of heat exposure (hours) (p<0.001) and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) (p<0.001) are the predictors factors of acute health score (AHS). The finding in this study concluded that steel mill plant considered as a hot workplace area since most of their workplaces were exceed the acceptable temperatures, 28.2°C according to (ACGIH) Threshold Limit Value (TLV). …”

Mapping the structural and dynamical features of multiple p53 DNA binding domains : insights into loop 1 intrinsic dynamics by Lukman, Suryani., Lane, David P., Verma, Chandra S.

“…Loop 1 occupies two major conformational states: extended and recessed; the former but not the latter displays correlations in atomic fluctuations with those of loop 2 (~24 Å apart). Since loop 1 binds to the major groove whereas loop 2 binds to the minor groove of DNA, our results begin to provide some insight into the possible mechanism underpinning the cooperative nature of DBD binding to DNA. …”
