Risk assessment of pushing and pulling (RAPP) among mechanics at tyre service center by Kamarudzaman, Mazlina, Abdol Rahman, Mohd Nasrull, Mohd Zaki, Nurul Elyna Asyiqen

“…The NMQ was used to evaluate the extent of exposure to pushing and pulling activities, as well as other physical risk factors associated with specific body regions within a 12- month period.. In this research, 75.86% mechanics have suffered musculoskeletal symptoms with most troubled in low back (79.81%), shoulder (68.97%) and elbow pain (59.48%). …”

Sequence- and structure-specific probing of RNAs by short nucleobase-modified dsRNA-binding PNAs incorporating a fluorescent light-up uracil analog by Krishna, Manchugondanahalli Shivakumar, Toh, Desiree-Faye Kaixin, Meng, Zhenyu, Ong, Alan Ann Lerk, Wang, Zhenzhang, Lu, Yunpeng, Xia, Kelin, Prabakaran, Mookkan, Chen, Gang

“…We have successfully developed nucleobase-modified dsRNA-binding PNAs (dbPNAs) to facilitate structure-specific and selective recognition of dsRNA over single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and dsDNA regions at near-physiological conditions. The triplex formation strategy facilitates the targeting of not only the sequence but also the secondary structure of RNA. …”
