Study of the functional diagram and algorithm of tracking system for electrodynamic braking of DC electric train by V. A. Baranov, I. P. Vikulov, A. A. Kiselev, A. S. Maznev

“…One of the key ways to save operating costs in suburban traffic on lines electrified with direct current is to increase the return of electric energy when the drivers use the regenerative braking mode.Electrodynamic braking control systems that track the magnitude of the voltage of the contact network  can increase the percentage of return of electric energy from the use of regenerative braking due to the rapid redistribution of energy generated by traction motors. …”

Nutritional management of pediatric nephrotic syndrome regarding oxidative stress and antioxidant balance by Elena Jechel, Alin Horatiu Nedelcu, Felicia Dragan, Vasile Valeriu Lupu, Iuliana Magdalena Starcea, Adriana Mocanu, Solange Tamara Rosu, Violeta Streanga, Ruxandra Russu, Ginel Baciu, Ciprian Danielescu, Delia Lidia Salaru, Ionela Daniela Morariu, Olga Cirstea, Emil Anton, Ancuta Lupu

“…The analysis focuses on the molecular mechanisms by which oxidative stress contributes to the progression of renal dysfunction, the role of oxidative biomarkers in disease monitoring, and the ability of antioxidants to reduce the need for immunosuppressants and corticosteroids, thus contributing to the decrease in associated morbidity. The translational perspectives of antioxidant therapy are also discussed, in the context of the urgent need for effective adjuvant strategies with a safety profile superior to conventional therapies. …”

A comprehensive review of the genetic control of cooking time in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by Hannah R. Jeffery, Marcelo Efrén Murillo‐Quesada, Luis Barboza‐Barquero, Karen Cichy

“…The current evidence suggests that cooking time is increased by genetic factors that decrease the amount of soluble compounds in the cotyledons, including but not limited to 1) genes that increase the abundance of calcium‐binding storage proteins and/or de‐methylesterfied pectins paired with high inter‐ or intra‐cellular calcium levels (higher calcium levels can be caused by reduced levels of phytate) and 2) genes that increase insoluble condensed tannin/lignin content in the cotyledon cell walls. …”
