Understanding the Role of N-Methylolacrylamide (Nma) Distribution in Poly(Vinyl Acetate) Latex Adhesives
… the distribution of N-methylolacrylamide (NMA) units in crosslinking poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) adhesives. In this case, distribution refers to the three potential locations of polymerized NMA units in a latex: the water-phase, the surface of polymer particles, and the core of the polymer …

Hydrogen bonding and solvation dynamics of n-methylacetamide in denatured water (D₂O) or denatured chloroform (CDCl₃) from nonlinear spectroscopy
Hydrogen bonding between N-methylacetamide (NMA) and different solvents (D₂O or CDCl₃) was studied by using two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy to probe the frequency fluctuations of the amide I mode of the solvated NMA. An iterative fitting approach was used to extract a correlation function …

Statistical methodologies for network meta-analysis with applications in veterinary medicine
Network meta-analysis (NMA) has become a popular method with which to conduct research syntheses pertaining to multiple interventions, as it allows for the comparison of interventions that have not been directly compared and typically improves precision of the comparative effect estimates relative …

Toward valid network meta-analysis: Challenges in clustering conservative interventions for musculoskeletal conditions
A network meta-analysis (NMA) is a statistical technique that combines and compares multiple interventions from direct and indirect evidence in one analysis, ranks them according to their effectiveness, and assists clinicians in making better-informed decisions within an EBP framework. Conducting …

Innovative Multivariate Meta-Analyses Methods For Diagnostic Tests And Multiple Treatments
… pairwise meta-analysis to network meta-analysis (NMA), enabling simultaneous assessment of multiple treatments. In arm-based NMA (AB-NMA), the sparsity of direct comparisons among multiple treatments makes accurate estimation of the correlation between treatments challenging. To address this …

Contributions to the analysis of proteins
… numerical methods, such as normal mode analysis (NMA), provides insight into their functional mechanisms. However, despite the fact that much effort has been focused on improving NMA over the last few decades, the analysis of large-scale protein motions is still infeasible due to computational …

High Pressure Effects on the Dynamics and Kinetics of Two Model Biochemical Systems
… for hydrogen exchange between N-methylacetamide (NMA) and water were measured at pressures up to 5 kbar at three different pH values and temperatures using proton/nitrogen-14 decoupled NMR inversion transfer, and the apparent activation volumes of exchange determined. Hydrogen exchange between NMA …

A molecular dynamics simulation based principal component analysis framework for computation of multi-scale modeling of protein and its interaction with solvent
… flexibility. Normal mode analysis (NMA) and various extensions of it have provided insights into the conformational fluctuations associated with individual protein structures. In traditional NMA, each protein requires a customized model for such analysis due to its mechanical …

The Mechanism and Effects of TNF-α on Apoptosis in Auditory Cell Line
… with iNOS blocker NG-methyl-L-arginine (NMA) attenuated TNF-α-induced cell death and caspase-3 activation. Also, TNF-α treatment increased p-p38 and pretreatment of NMA reduced this increased expression of p-p38. In conclusion, TNF-α can induce apoptosis in auditory cell line, and NO …

Pharmacotherapy for Social Anxiety Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: New Meta-Analytic Approaches to Synthesising the Evidence
… inclusion of add on trials in the SAD and PTSD NMA reviews. Adult participants (18-65 years) diagnosed with SAD and PTSD according to the Diagnostic Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders (DSM, all versions) were included in the individual reviews (i.e. for chapter two, three, five and six). In …
