Surface mounds and depressions are the basic patterns of microtopography. Their geometric forms and physical properties affect rainfall infiltration, runoff generation and runoff confluence process. In this study, soil beds were set up with seven dif...
One of the challenges for azobenzene-based materials in fabricating rewritable surface relief gratings is the long response time in the procedure of holographic recording, making it inefficient in real-time applications. In this study, a small molecu...
Heritage materials science techniques, including pXRF, FTIR-ATR, XRD, microphotography, and microsampling, have peeled back concealed layers of polychromy on a Roman Mithraic altar near Hadrian’s Wall. The results break new ground by exposing t...
Pain is a common symptom that impairs the quality of life for people around the world. Local anesthetics widely used for pain relief have a number of side effects, which makes the development of both new drugs and new ways to control their activity p...
Controlled regeneration processes involving tissue growth using the surface and structure of scaffolds, are actively used in tissue engineering. Reactive magnetron sputtering is a versatile surface modification method of both metal and polymer substr...

Shinrin-yoku, forest bathing, may provide relief from chronic and breakthrough pain in patients with axial spondyloarthritis and improve immune function through increasing NK cell numbers and activity and their downstream effectors, perforin and gran...
The article presents the original results of the investigation of sulfide-bearing mine tailings dumps (Ursk, Western Siberia, Russia), the adjacent territory, and acid mine drainage flows. The novelty of this study is related to integration of geophy...
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic and persistent inflammatory skin disease characterized by eczematous lesions and itching, and it has become a serious health problem. However, the common clinical treatments provide limited relief and are accompani...
Pain is one of the most common symptoms encountered in the medical practice. None of the management procedures used currently offer a complete relief for patients suffering from nociceptive pain. New treatment strategies for pain management are neede...
The thrust system, an important subsystem of a tunnel boring machine (TBM), primarily provides thrust force and adjusts TBM’s attitude in real time. In the tunneling process, only controlling the thrust speed causes pressure oscillations, incre...
This study aimed to develop bioactive toothpaste and compare its remineralization potential on initial enamel lesions with toothpaste containing other active agents. Sixty extracted human maxillary incisors were randomly assigned to six groups: Group...
