In this study, we used image recognition technology to explore different ways to improve the safety of construction workers. Three object recognition scenarios were designed for safety at a construction site, and a corresponding object recognition model was developed for each scenario. The first object recognition model checks whether there are con...

Studying the usefulness of contextual and cognitive transdiagnostic therapies calls for an analysis of both their differential efficacy and their specificity when acting on the transdiagnostic conditions on which they focus. This controlled trial compares the post-treatment and 3- and 6-month follow-up effects of Behavioral Activation (BA), Accepta...

Everyone knows what paying attention is, yet not everybody knows what this means in cognitive and brain function terms. The attentive state can be defined as a state of optimal activation that allows selecting the sources of information and courses of action in order to optimize our interaction with the environment in accordance with either the sal...

Objectives (1) To clarify the dynamic relationship between the expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and microglial activation of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), (2) to explore the effect of inhibition of MPO on microglial activation, and (3) to observe the improvement in the neurobehavior of mice with inhibition of MPO. Methods C57 BL/6 mice and CX3...

Some extracellular glycoconjugates have sialic acid as the terminal sugar, and sialidases are enzymes that remove this sugar. Mammals have 4 sialidases and can be elevated in inflammation and fibrosis. In this report, we show that incubation of human neutrophils with the extracellular human sialidase NEU3, but not NEU1, NEU2 or NEU4, induces human ...

Introduction T cells are crucial for pathogenesis as well as control for tuberculosis (TB). Although much is known about the signaling pathways which are required for the activation of T cells during acute infection but the way these cells respond during persistent of infection still remained elusive. Therefore, it is rationale to understand T cell...

Grounded in hedonic assumptions, evidence suggests that people tend to engage in activities they consider pleasurable and enjoyable, while trying to avoid pain and displeasure. This suggests that the dynamic between positive and negative affect can influence current behavior and the intentions to continue performing. Regarding resistance training (...

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) immunotherapy relies on the restoration of T-cell functions. The ICI receptors are not only found on exhausted T cells but also upregulated upon activation and reach high levels on effector T cells. In an ex vivo model, this study explored the consequences of PD-1 and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen (CTLA-4) blockad...

In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in exploring frequency as a source of variability in heritage speakers’ (HSs) knowledge of their heritage language (HL). While many of these studies acknowledge that frequency can affect the shape of HL grammars, there is still no clear consensus about (a) what “frequency” means in th...

TNFa blocking agents were the first-in-class biologic drugs used for the treatment of autoimmune disease. Paradoxically, however, exacerbation of autoimmunity was observed in some patients. TNFa is a pleiotropic cytokine that has both proinflammatory and regulatory effects on CD4+ T cells and can influence the adaptive immune response against autoa...
