The activity of mitochondrial large-conductance voltage- and [Formula: see text]-activated [Formula: see text] channels (mitoBK) is regulated by a number of biochemical factors, including flavonoids. In particular, naringenin (Nar) and quercetin (Que) reached reasonable scientific attention due to their well-pronounced channel-activating effects. The open-reinforcing outcomes of Nar and Que on the mitoBK channel gating have been already reported. Nevertheless, the molecular picture of the corresponding channel-ligand interactions remains still to be revealed...

Evidence from increasing mineralization, micropollutant concentrations, waterborne epidemics, an algal boom, and dissolved organic matter has provided substantial evidence that climate change impacts water quality. While the impact of the extreme hydrological event (EHE) on water quality (WQ) has aroused considerable research interest, research uncertainty has been premised on WQ data scarcity, a short time frame, data non-linearity, data structure, and environmental biases on WQ. This study conceptualized a categorical and periodic correlation using confusion matrices and wavelet coherence for varying standard hydrological drought index (SHDI; 1971-2010) and daily WQ series (1977-2011) of four spatially distinct basins...

BACKGROUND: Journal articles describing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews with meta-analysis of RCTs are not optimally reported and often miss crucial details. This poor reporting makes assessing these studies' risk of bias or reproducing their results difficult. However, the reporting quality of diet- and nutrition-related RCTs and meta-analyses has not been explored. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to assess the reporting completeness and identify the main reporting limitations of diet- and nutrition-related RCTs and meta-analyses of RCTs, estimate the frequency of reproducible research practices among these RCTs, and estimate the frequency of distorted presentation or spin among these meta-analyses...

BACKGROUND: Quantitative gait analysis can support clinical decision-making. These analyses can be performed using wearable sensors, nonwearable sensors, or a combination of both. However, to date, they have not been widely adopted in clinical practice. Technology adoption literature has highlighted the clinical efficacy of technology and the users' perspective on the technology (eg, ease of use and usefulness) as some factors that influence their widespread adoption. OBJECTIVE: To assist with the clinical adoption of quantitative gait technologies, this scoping review will synthesize the literature on their clinical efficacy and clinician perspectives on their use in the clinical care of adult patient populations...

BACKGROUND: Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) methods have shown increasing applicability in chemistry. In this context, visualization techniques can highlight regions of a molecule to reveal their influence over a predicted property. For this purpose, some XAI techniques calculate attribution scores associated with tokens of SMILES strings or with atoms of a molecule. While an association of a score with an atom can be directly visually represented on a molecule diagram, scores computed for SMILES non-atom tokens cannot...
