Transformation of the Nosological Forms into Syndromes: Are Such Aspirations of Some Clinicians Progressive? by Zerbino D.

“…The first trend is the combination of several diseases into the syndrome, the second – the transfer of the symptom into the syndrome, the third trend – the obvious complication of treatment is called syndrome, the fourth – the desire to combine several diseases in one, replacing, for example, the well-known complication of a disease (lack of organs’ function), giving this complication a “new”, generalized “disease”, the fifth – comorbidity – the real situation when two or more syndromes or nosological forms are detected in the same patient. …”

Binding of protein kinase inhibitors to synapsin I inferred from pair-wise binding site similarity measurements. by Enrico Defranchi, Claire Schalon, Mirko Messa, Franco Onofri, Fabio Benfenati, Didier Rognan

“…The present data suggest that the observed downregulation of neurotransmitter release by some but not all protein kinase inhibitors may also be contributed by a direct binding to synapsin I and phosphorylation-independent perturbation of synapsin I function. More generally, the data also demonstrate that cross-reactivity with various targets may be detected by systematic pair-wise similarity measurement of ligand-annotated binding sites.…”

Assessment and Optimization of Hydrological Connectivity for Effective Management of Water Resources in the Samian Watershed by Zeinab Hazbavi, Nazila Alaei

“…These independent water zones were located separately from the main river network and, as a result, contributed little to the hydrological cycle and energy transfer in the watershed, making them more fragile. To protect these water zones from destruction and disappearance and improve the overall ecological function of the water system, they had to be integrated into the hydrological connection pattern. …”
