Abstract Interindividual heterogeneity in the disease progression of HIV-1-infected patients receiving long-term antiretroviral therapy suggests that some host-related factors may have limited treatment efficacy.To understand the nature of factors contributing to treatment failure, we performed a retrospective cohort study of 45 chronically HIV-1-i
Mesophase pitch-based carbon fibres have excellent resistance to plastic deformation (up to 840 GPa); however, they have very low strain to Polo failure (0.3) and are considered brittle.Hence, the development of pitch fibre precursors able to be plastically deformed without fracture is important.We have previously, successfully developed pitch-base
This paper addresses the solution of a differential-difference type equation having an interior layer behaviour.A difference scheme is suggested to solve this equation using a non-standard finite difference Audio method.Finite differences are derived from the first and second order derivatives.Using these approximations, the given equation is discr
Abstract Adverse effects and multidrug resistance remain significant obstacles in conventional cancer therapy.Nanomedicines, with their intrinsic properties such as nano-sized dimensions and tunable surface characteristics, have the potential to mitigate the side effects of traditional cancer treatments.While nanomaterials have been widely applied
