This document describes research on a new chemically modified electrode incorporating zeolite ZSM-5 for determining the drug piroxicam. Specifically:
- A carbon ceramic electrode was modified by incorporating zeolite ZSM-5 using a sol-gel method, creating a carbon ceramic zeolite modified electrode (CCZME).
- The voltammetric behavior of piroxicam at the CCZME was investigated, showing the electrode exhibited catalytic activity toward electrooxidation of piroxicam.
- Under optimized conditions, the CCZME allowed determination of piroxicam using differential pulse voltammetry and hydrodynamic amperometry, with good linear ranges and detection limits.

This document provides insights into the Canadian e-commerce market based on research from Canada Post. It finds that Canadians have enthusiastically embraced online shopping, with over half making an online purchase in the past three months. The most popular purchase categories are apparel, books/movies/music, health/beauty, and electronics. Many Canadians shop internationally for better prices or product selection not available domestically. The document recommends that American retailers looking to expand to Canada focus on competitive pricing, wide product selection, and optimizing their shipping and delivery processes based on Canadian consumer preferences to attract this lucrative market.

This paper investigates the impact of exchange rate volatility on bilateral trade flows using monthly export data from 13 countries from 1980 to 1998. It finds that the relationship is nonlinear and depends on the interaction between exchange rate volatility and economic uncertainty in the importing country. In contrast to prior studies using aggregate data, this paper employs a measure of exchange rate volatility calculated from daily exchange rate data. It also controls for uncertainty in foreign income levels and includes an interaction term to capture indirect effects. The results show exchange rate volatility does not have a simple linear relationship with trade flows and that uncertainty in foreign income may significantly impact trade for some country pairs. This suggests the effects of exchange rate volatility are more complex than portrayed in previous empirical work.

Mikhail Gromov is renowned for his groundbreaking contributions across many areas of mathematics through his unique geometric perspective and ability to identify simple yet powerful underlying principles. Some of his most influential works include introducing symplectic geometry through J-holomorphic curves, proving the h-principle and developing convex integration, establishing the nonsqueezing theorem in symplectic geometry, and introducing the Gromov-Hausdorff distance. Gromov often sees the essence in problems that others miss and formulates strikingly original insights that have profound and wide-ranging impacts.

This document summarizes the mechanisms of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) in humans. It discusses both acute and chronic HPV. For acute HPV, it describes the role of calcium influx through transient receptor potential (TRP) channels and voltage-gated calcium channels in triggering vasoconstriction. It also discusses the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by mitochondria in modulating potassium channels and causing vasoconstriction. For chronic HPV, it mentions how increased ROS production leads to pulmonary vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension over time.
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.
NAVIGATING THE HORIZONS OF TIME LAPSE EMBRYO MONITORING.pdfRahul Sen
Time-lapse embryo monitoring is an advanced imaging technique used in IVF to continuously observe embryo development. It captures high-resolution images at regular intervals, allowing embryologists to select the most viable embryos for transfer based on detailed growth patterns. This technology enhances embryo selection, potentially increasing pregnancy success rates.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
