DOI: 10.1038/d41586-019-03952-z
Abstract: Most surfaces are rough at many length scales. Simulations show that this characteristic originates at the atomic level in metal-based materials when smooth blocks of these materials are compressed. Self-affine roughness originates at the atomic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cen.14861
Abstract: Although there is growing evidence associating nonfunctioning adrenal incidentalomas (NFAI) with cardiovascular risk factors, there are limited data whether NFAI and autonomous cortisol secretion (ACS) groups have similar or different clinical and metabolic features. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fncel.2022.816439
Abstract: Microglia are the tissue-resident macrophages of the central nervous parenchyma. In mammals, microglia are thought to originate from yolk sac precursors and posteriorly maintained through the entire life of the organism. However, the contribution of… read more here.
