Abstract:
This article describes how mobile health (mHealth) has grown from infancy stage to toddler stage due to advances in the technology. It has the potential for further growth as it is low-cost health care. For its further growth, it is necessary to widen its scope. In this article, a proposal is presented to develop a new and advanced mHealth care system, and its first step that is modelling is reported. In modelling, historically, a model of a temporal object system (TOS) is used. The model empowers users of the proposed mHealth care system to define, retrieve and manipulate all objects historic

However, 32% of patients are ineligible due to insufficient future liver remnant, which increases the risk of post-hepatectomy liver failure. To address this, portal vein blockade with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) augmentation is used to induce pre-operative liver hypertrophy. However, 20-30% of patients fail to achieve adequate growth due to the rapid washout of MSCs from the liver.

A simplified stochastic model is proposed for crack initiation and short-crack growth under creep and creep-fatigue conditions.

The probabilities of crack initiation and growth are derived by using convolution integrals. The model is calibrated and used to predict the crack density and

Abstract:
The term underdog entrepreneur (UE) is increasingly used among scholars to discuss successful disabled, immigrant, and necessity entrepreneurs who encounter significant challenges in their early lives. However, their characteristics and business obstacles in emerging economies remain unclear. This research offers insights by answering two questions: (1) how do physical, socio-cultural, and economic challenges motivate underdog individuals to become entrepreneurs? And (2) what are UEs’ unique challenges following establishing their ventures in Iran? First, this research develops a theoretical m

Abstract:
Many cancer cells consume glutamine at high rates; counterintuitively, they simultaneously excrete glutamate, the first intermediate in glutamine metabolism. Glutamine consumption has been linked to replenishment of tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) intermediates and synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), but the reason for glutamate excretion is unclear. Here, we dynamically profile the uptake and excretion fluxes of a liver cancer cell line (HepG2) and use genome-scale metabolic modeling for in-depth analysis. We find that up to 30% of the glutamine is metabolized in the cytosol, primarily

In the currently used murine models of CRC metastasis, the metastasis occurs primarily in the liver, though lung metastasis accounts for a significant proportion of CRC metastasis. There is an urgent need for a murine model of CRC, which not only allows tumor progression in the colonic mucosa but also metastasis of the lung. The authors describe a minim
