Bioactive potential and chemical profile of extracts of Psidium oligospermum Mart. ex DC. (Myrtaceae) by T. S. Rocha, E. J. Marques, C. M. Nascimento, M. C. Silva, H. V. M. Boness, V. L. C. Vale

“…The extracts showed antioxidant effects, with reductions of up to 84% in DPPH free radicals. The absence of toxicity in extracts obtained with ethanol and ethyl acetate was observed through hemolytic tests with sheep erythrocytes and viability tests using Artemia salina, whereas the hexane leaf extract showed moderate toxicity. …”

Reproductive factors and non-Hodgkin lymphoma risk in the California Teachers Study. by Jennifer Prescott, Yani Lu, Ellen T Chang, Jane Sullivan-Halley, Katherine D Henderson, Christina A Clarke, Huiyan Ma, Claire Templeman, Dennis Deapen, Leslie Bernstein

“…Pregnancy was marginally associated with lower risk of B-cell NHL (RR = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.68-1.04). Much of the reduction in risk was observed after one full-term pregnancy relative to nulligravid women (RR = 0.75, 95% CI = 0.54-1.06; P for trend <0.01), particularly for diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (P for trend = 0.13), but not among women who had only incomplete pregnancies. …”

Aerodynamic optimization for stability improvement of a centrifugal compressor using arbitrary-shape volute design by Richard Amankwa Adjei, Chengwei Fan, Salman Ijaz, Hao Zou

“…Data mining results showed that the distortion index was strongly influenced by the throat area, exit diffuser cone variation, and the tongue radius. The reduction in area to radius ratio distribution and progressive change in volute cross-sectional profile downstream of the tongue was found to be the most sensitive to static pressure rise and total pressure loss. …”
