Psychosocial stressors contribute to the pathophysiology of affective disorders and variations of cytokine functioning have been implicated in this process. The present investigation demonstrated, in mice, the impact of stressful aggressive encounters on activity levels, plasma corticosterone and cytokine concentrations, and on cytokine mRNA expres...

Despite investigation, 95% of thyroid nodules are ultimately benign. Radiomics is a field that uses radiological features to inform individualized patient care. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic utility of radiomics in classifying undetermined thyroid nodules into benign and malignant using ultrasonography (US). A diagnostic test accuracy systema...

X-ray angiography is commonly used in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease with the advantage of visualization of the inside of blood vessels in real-time. However, it has several disadvantages that occur in the acquisition process, which causes inconvenience and difficulty. Here, we propose a novel segmentation and nonrigid regis...

For the aluminium alloys produced by the hot extrusion process, the profile is shaped according to the bearing at the exit of the extrusion die. The tribological process has significant effects on the die service life, profile dimensional tolerances, and profile surface finish. Recently, new technologies have been introduced to the hot extrusion di...

Due to the chemically inert surface of MoS2, uniform deposition of ultrathin high-κ dielectric using atomic layer deposition (ALD) is difficult. However, this is crucial for the fabrication of field-effect transistors (FETs). In this work, the atomic layer deposition growth of sub-5 nm La2O3/Al2O3 nanolaminates on MoS2 using different oxidants (H2O...

WDR36 is one of a number of genes implicated in the pathogenesis of adult-onset primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Here we describe in detail the phenotype of a patient with pathogenic variation in WDR36 who presented with a protracted history of central vision loss. On exam visual acuities were at 20/100 level, had a tritan color defect and showe...

The vast majority of our current knowledge about the biochemical and biophysical properties of proteins derives from in vitro studies conducted on isolated globular domains. However, a very large fraction of the proteins expressed in the eukaryotic cell are structurally more complex. In particular, the discovery that up to 40% of the eukaryotic pro...

Plasticity in the honeybee brain has been studied using the appetitive olfactory conditioning of the proboscis extension reflex, in which a bee learns the association between an odor and a sucrose reward. In this framework, coupling behavioral measurements of proboscis extension and invasive recordings of neural activity has been difficult because ...

Hemispatial neglect is a debilitating disorder marked by a constellation of spatial and non-spatial attention deficits. Patients’ alertness deficits have shown to interact with lateralized attention processes and correspondingly, improving tonic/general alertness as well as phasic/moment-to-moment alertness has shown to ameliorate spatial bias. How...
