BackgroundPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive malignant tumor of the digestive system.Its grim prognosis is mainly attributed to the lack of means for early diagnosis and poor response to treatments.Genomic instability is shown to be an important cancer feature and prognostic factor, and its pattern and extent may be asso
Framework for treating non-Linear multi-term fractional differential equations with reasonable spectrum of two-point boundary conditions
In this work, a novel bio-inspired meta-heuristic framework is presented for the assessment of linear and non-linear multi-term fractional differential equations (MFDEs) based on the idea of residual power series method (RPSM) in amalgamation with the bat algorithm (BATA) which, mimics the echolocation behavior of the foraging lsu tote bag bats.The
Moral Disengagement, Dark Triad and Face Mask Wearing during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Not wearing a face mask, despite the sanitary recommendation, represented a public health risk during the COVID-19 pandemic.For this reason, the aim of the study was to determine the mediating role of moral lsu tote bag disengagement in the relationship between the dark triad and face mask wearing during the second wave of the pandemic.We worked wi
The emerging story of disability associated with lymphatic filariasis: a critical review.
Globally, 40 million people live with the chronic effects of lymphatic filariasis (LF), making it the second leading cause of le emt multitool 2.0 disability in the world.Despite this, there is limited research into the experiences of people living with the disease.This review summarises the research on the experiences of people living with LF disa
Can Sexual Selection Drive the Evolution of Sperm Cell Structure?
Sperm cells have undergone an extraordinarily divergent evolution among metazoan animals.Parker recognized that because female animals frequently mate with more than one male, sexual selection would continue after mating and impose strong selection on sperm cells to maximize fertilization success.Comparative analyses among species have revealed a g
