( Wiley , 2024 , Article)This study evaluated the potential for antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) in serum samples from patients exposed to Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). Furthermore, we evaluated the effect of severe ... -
Binary Si–Ge Alloys as High-Capacity Anodes for Li-Ion Batteries
( Wiley , 2020 , Article)Herein, Si–Ge binary alloy films are prepared by deposition on rough copper (Cu) foil and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) sheets using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. The as-prepared SiGe@Cu and SiGe@MWCNT ... -
Blue photobiomodulation LED therapy impacts SARS-CoV-2 by limiting its replication in Vero cells
( Wiley , 2021 , Other)The study of any intervention able to counteract SARS-CoV-2 pandemic is considerably envisaged. It was previously shown, in in vitro models of infections, that the LED blue light is able to decrease the viral load of HSV-1 ... -
CIITA gene polymorphism (rs3087456) in systemic lupus erythematosus and rheumatoid arthritis: A population-based cohort study
( Wiley , 2021 , Other)Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are influenced by genetic variants in immune system HLA genes. The Class II Major Histocompatibility Complex Transactivator (CIITA) is an important co-activator ... -
Complete allocation sampling: An efficient and easily implemented adaptive sampling design
( Wiley , 2010 , Article)Adaptive sampling designs are becoming increasingly popular in environmental science, particularly for surveying rare and aggregated populations. An adaptive sample is one in which the survey design is modified, or adapted, ... -
Differential distribution of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene variants and its expression in systemic lupus erythematosus
( Wiley , 2022 , Article)Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifactorial autoimmune disorder that displays an important genetic background. Vitamin D3 (VD3) through its receptor (VDR) plays an important immunomodulatory role in autoimmune ... -
Direct inactivation of SARS-CoV-2 by low level blue photobiomodulation LED at 470, 454 and 450 nm.
( Wiley , 2022 , Article)Blue light has been already reported as able to counteract different types of microorganisms including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi and viruses, especially the enveloped ones. It has been reported that ... -
Directionally sensitive homogeneously weighted moving average control charts
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)One-sided control charts for monitoring changes in the mean level are proposed in this paper. The proposed charts are given in the form of a homogeneously weighted moving average technique that provides efficient monitoring ... -
Effect of near-infrared and blue laser light on vero E6 cells SARS-CoV-2 infection model
( Wiley , 2022 , Other)Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) employing laser light has been emerging as a safe strategy to challenge viruses. In this study the effect of blue and near-infrared (NIR) laser light was assessed in an in vitro model of ... -
Effects of ambient climate and three warming treatments on fruit production in an alpine, subarctic meadow community
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)Premise Climate change is having major impacts on alpine and arctic regions, and inter‐annual variations in temperature are likely to increase. How increased climate variability will impact plant reproduction is ... -
Effects of physical training on anthropometrics, physical and physiological capacities in individuals with obesity: A systematic review
( Wiley , 2020 , Article)Increasing the amount of physical activity is an important strategy for weight loss. This systematic review summarizes recent findings on the effects of physical training on anthropometric characteristics, physical ... -
Efficient homogeneously weighted dispersion control charts with an application to distillation process
( Wiley , 2021 , Article)Monitoring disturbances in process dispersion using control chart is mostly based on the assumption that the quality characteristic follows normal distribution, which is not the case in many real-life situations. This paper ... -
Evaluation of novel Prosopis juliflora water soluble leaf ethanolic extract as preservation coating material of cucumber
