Cement-stabilised subbases provide superior bearing capacity and durability to road pavements compared to unbound aggregate layers.However, stabilisation reduces the environmental benefits derived when recycled aggregates are used.This research compares alternative binders to Portland cement to highlight mechanical, environmental, and economic adva
An Alternative Method of Interviewing: Critical Reflections on Videoconference Interviews for Qualitative Data Collection
Qualitative research is an increasingly popular research approach for tackling the evolving complexity of social issues.With this rise in use, methods of qualitative data collection are becoming highly diverse, moving away from conventional approaches and welcoming more innovative and creative methods of data collection in a quest to produce critic
Research Progress on the Toxicity and Detoxification of T-2 Toxin
T-2 toxin is a secondary metabolite produced by Fusarium spp., and belongs to the type A mycotoxins in the cephalosporins family.T-2 toxin is highly toxic, and it pollutes not only crops in the field,but also granary which leads the post-harvest lost of grain, furthermore, it causes huge damage to human and animal health.Therefore, it becomes world
HOXD-AS1 facilitates cell migration and invasion as an oncogenic lncRNA by competitively binding to miR-877-3p and upregulating FGF2 in human cervical cancer
Abstract Background Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) are dysregulated in multiple human cancers and they are highly involved in tumor progression.Previous studies have identified the oncogenic lncRNA HOXD cluster antisense RNA 1 (HOXD-AS1) in human cancers, while its roles in cervical cancer (CC) remain unclear.Herein we intended to characterize the
