Dietary Polyphenols in Human Diseases Advances and Challenges in Drug Discovery

Dietary Polyphenols in Human Diseases Advances and Challenges in Drug Discovery
Dietary Polyphenols in Human Diseases; Advances and Challenges in Drug Discovery
by Mithun Rudrapal

English | 2022 | ISBN: 1032170387 | 301 pages | True PDF | 43.07 MB
Diets rich in plant polyphenols or dietary polyphenols are the subject of increasing scientific interest because of their diverse range of health benefits and medicinal uses. This book, Dietary Polyphenols in Human Diseases: Advances and Challenges in Drug Discovery, fills the gap that exists in the current knowledge by presenting the latest information in the area of polyphenol-based drug discovery research. The book focuses on the current understanding of the beneficial effects on human health of diets rich in polyphenols and/or polyphenolic compounds derived from dietary sources (plant-based foods) and their possible preventive role in the management of chronic human diseases. In addition, biochemical mechanisms involved in the antioxidative effect of dietary polyphenols along with their bioavailability, pharmacokinetic, and toxicological considerations are also discussed herein.

Design for Enhancing Eco-efficiency of Energy-related Products

Design for Enhancing Eco-efficiency of Energy-related Products
Design for Enhancing Eco-efficiency of Energy-related Products
by Suphichaya Suppipat, Treechada Chotiratanapinun, Kulthida Teachavorasinskun, Allen H. Hu

English | 2023 | ISBN: 3031150597 | 93 pages | True PDF EPUB | 13.78 MB
This brief textbook underpins the concept of eco-efficiency in product design and systematically addresses the essence of the integration of simplified life cycle assessment (LCA) methods and tools into industrial design. Fundamental steps of LCA-based tools implementation within the higher education context are proposed, using energy-related products (ErP) design as a prime case study. All chapters are designed to respond to the common frequently asked questions in LCA-based tools implementation during the sustainable product design process. The chapters are also enriched with discussions, data sources of simplified LCA tools, and examples of design assignments that provide constructive learning. Some assignments aim at encouraging tool users' reflections while others tackle particularly at knowledge exchange. The examples can assist the reader to visualize challenges and opportunities to engage learners who are tool users. This textbook broadens LCA knowledge for industrial design and environmental engineering students as well as enhance their sustainable product design performance. For professional practitioners including industrial designers, product engineers, entrepreneurs and the like, this textbook can be used as a guide at the introductory level for integrating life cycle thinking into product design and development.

Decision Trees with Hypotheses

Decision Trees with Hypotheses
Decision Trees with Hypotheses
by Mohammad Azad, Igor Chikalov, Shahid Hussain, Mikhail Moshkov, Beata Zielosko

English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031085841 | 148 pages | True PDF EPUB | 13.87 MB
In this book, the concept of a hypothesis about the values of all attributes is added to the standard decision tree model, considered, in particular, in test theory and rough set theory. This extension allows us to use the analog of equivalence queries from exact learning and explore decision trees that are based on various combinations of attributes, hypotheses, and proper hypotheses (analog of proper equivalence queries). The two main goals of this book are (i) to provide tools for the experimental and theoretical study of decision trees with hypotheses and (ii) to compare these decision trees with conventional decision trees that use only queries, each based on a single attribute.

Dealing with Econometrics: Real World Cases with Cross-Sectional Data
by Jordi Ripolls, Author;Inmaculada Martnez-Zarzoso, Author;Maite Alguacil, Author;

English | 2022 | ISBN: 152758500X | 210 pages | True PDF | 6.53 MB
The book covers the basic statistical tools needed to analyse cross-sectional data in order to identify, quantify and evaluate possible socio-economic relationships. It contains both theoretical summaries and practical examples and exercises, some of which are solved using Excel or the Gretl software package. The exercises are mostly based on real-world data from Europe and Spain. The book also discusses basic methods, principles and practices of cross-sectional econometrics, considering simple and multiple regression analysis, statistical inference, the use of qualitative information in regression analysis and discrete choice models. In essence, it is a practical guide to the fundamentals of econometrics commonly taught in undergraduate courses in Business Administration, Finance and Accounting, and Economics in Europe.

A botanical garden is essentially a living museum. Yet until now no resource existed to give those working in botanical gardens specific guidance for acquiring and maintaining their natural collections. Timothy C. Hohn does the field an enormous service with Curatorial Practices for Botanical Gardens, which introduces public garden professionals and students to standard and specialized museological concepts and practices useful for the management of botanical collections. Hohn offers instruction on how to construct collections management policies, maintain steady new acquisitions, document collections, ensure adequate preservation and care of specimens, conduct research, and encourage public engagement with the garden.
