The kappa opioid receptor (KOR) system has been linked to many types of drug addiction. An upregulation of the KOR leads to negative reinforcement effects which might contribute to drug relapse. Previously, our study has shown that a treatment combination of 0.3 mg/kg buprenorphine and 1.0 mg/kg methamphetamine (a partial nociceptin opioid peptide

A search for invisible decays of a Higgs boson is performed using proton-proton collision data collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy , corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9. The search targets the production of a Higgs boson via vector boson fusion. The data are found to be in agreement with the b

Measurements of normalized differential cross sections as functions of the multiplicity and kinematic variables of charged-particle tracks from the underlying event in top quark and antiquark pair production are presented. The measurements are performed in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, and are based on data collecte

A search is presented for charged Higgs bosons in the H± → τ ± ντ decay mode in the hadronic final state and in final states with an electron or a muon. The search is based on proton-proton collision data recorded by the CMS experiment in 2016 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . Th

A search is presented for pair production of the standard model Higgs boson using data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC in 2016, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb−1 . The final state consists of two b quark-antiquark pairs. The search is cond

The χb1ð3PÞ and χb2ð3PÞ states are observed through their ϒð3SÞγ decays, using an event sample of proton-proton collisions collected by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The data were collected at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 80.0 fb−1. The ϒð3SÞ mesons are identified through their

The leaves of Neolamarckia cadamba (NC) (Roxb.) Bosser (family: Rubiaceae) aretraditionally used to treat breast cancer in Malaysia; however, this traditional claim is yet to be scientifically verified. Hence, this study was aimed to evaluate the anticancer effect of NC leaves’ ethanol extract against breast cancer cell line (MCF-7 cells) using a

Feedback to students’ writing plays an important role as a scaffolding technique to help the students to improve their writing skills. With the introduction of school-based assessment and the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) into the new Standards-based English Language Curriculum (SBELC), teachers are expected to adapt the process w

Abstract Living in the demanding and uncertain world nowadays, everybody must have a secured job to put food on the table food or even to maintain a lifestyle. There are a lot of instances whereby we concentrate so much on our work, job or career that we fail to balance between career and family or other commitments which equally important to achie

Whistleblowing is one of the countermeasures proposed to reduce the vulnerability of the halal food supply chain. Despite the importance of whistleblowing as a monitoring mechanism, limited studies were conducted concerning whistleblowing intentions in the halal food sector. This research is proposed to fill the gap. The primary objective of this s
