Abstract Background The Viridiplantae comprise two major phyla: the Streptophyta, containing the charophycean green algae and all land plants, and the Chlorophyta, containing the remaining green algae.Despite recent progress in unravelling phylogenetic relationships Check and Menu Holders among major green plant lineages, problematic nodes still re
Combustion and Emission Reduction Characteristics of GTL-Biodiesel Fuel in a Single-Cylinder Diesel Engine
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of using gas to liquid (GTL)-biodiesel blends as an alternative fuel on the physical properties as well as the combustion and emission reduction characteristics in a diesel engine.In order to assess the influence of the GTL-biodiesel blending ratio, the biodiesel is blended with GTL fuel, whic
Use of Minimal Residual Disease Status to Reduce Uncertainty in Estimating Long-term Survival Outcomes for Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Patients
**Background:** Demonstrating the cost-effectiveness of new treatments for multiple myeloma (MM) often relies on the extrapolation of overall survival (OS) trial data.This method can introduce uncertainty in long-term survival estimates if OS data are immature, as is often the case in newly diagnosed MM (NDMM).We explore the use of the relationship
Are certain African ethical values at risk from artificial intelligence?
This paper questions how the drive toward introducing artificial intelligence (AI) in all facets of life might endanger certain African ethical values.It argues in the affirmative that indeed two primary values Press On Nails that are prized in nearly all versions of sub-Saharan African ethics (available in the literature) might sit in direct oppos
