Human infection by Baylisascaris procyonis can result in larva migrans syndromes, which can cause severe neurological sequelae and fatal cases. The raccoon serves as the definitive host of the nematode, harboring adult worms in its intestine and excreting millions of eggs into the environment via its feces. Transmission to paratenic hosts (such as ...

Le concept d’homéostasie rend compte de la capacité d’un système à maintenir autour de valeurs optimales les facteurs nécessaires à sa pérennité. Il s’applique à l’origine à un processus biologique général, caractéristique du fonctionnement des organismes vivants. Mais il doit son succès à son extension à l’ensemble des systèmes ouverts étudiés par...

Chimaeric antigen receptor (CAR) T lymphocytes (CAR-T) discovered in 1992 have been in the recent years in the spotlight of both researchers and clinicians. Immune therapy with engineered CAR-T cells has been approved by the FDA since 2017 for pediatric and young adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Since then, around ten therapies were approved for...

This study tested the role of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)'s conversational expansion in mediating between mothers' descriptive language and children with ASD's conversational repair, and whether this mediation was moderated by the relative complexity of mother-child language. Videos of forty children with ASD engaging in various ac...
The purpose of this essay is to explore the connection between the novel adaptation of Five Nights at Freddy’s and its video game source. As well as questioning how the two sources have developed a unique transmedial symbiosis. This relationship will be explored through the lens of modern adaptation, transmedial storytelling, worldbuilding, and wor...
In applications, QBF solvers are often required to generate strategies. This typically involves a process known as strategy extraction, where a Boolean circuit encoding a strategy is computed from a proof. It has previously been observed that Craig interpolation in propositional logic can be seen as a special case of QBF strategy extraction. In thi...
The Accra Metropolis of Ghana has experienced rapid urban expansion over the past decades. Agricultural and forest-lands have been transformed into urban/built-up areas. This study analysed urban expansion and its relationship with the temperature of Accra from 1986 to 2022. Multi-source datasets such as remote sensing (RS) and other ancillary data...
Despite ongoing efforts to prevent the damaging effects of alkali-silica reaction (ASR) in concrete structures, this phenomenon still exists and causes significant degradation. This study aims to investigate the role of various deicing agents in provoking ASR by examining volume expansion, cracks, and microstructure of mortar and concrete containin...
