An Automated Light Trap to Monitor Moths (Lepidoptera) Using Computer Vision-Based Tracking and Deep Learning.
Published in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Insect monitoring methods are typically very time-consuming and involve substantial investment in species identification following manual trapping in the field. Insect traps are often only serviced weekly, resulting in low temporal resolution of the monitoring data, which hampers the ecological interpretation. This paper presents a portable compute...
Increasing Registered Nurse Hours Per Resident Day for Improved Nursing Home Residents' Outcomes Using a Longitudinal St...
Published in International journal of environmental research and public health
The purpose of this study was to estimate how much resident outcomes can improve with an increase in hours per resident day (HPRD) of registered nurses (RNs) staffing. Nursing home (NH) staff in Korea have serious problems with inappropriate nurse staffing standards and poor working conditions, which lead to poor quality of care for NH residents. T...
BLE-Based Indoor Tracking System with Overlapping-Resistant IoT Solution for Tourism Applications.
Published in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In this paper, an overlapping-resistant Internet of Things (IoT) solution for a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)-based indoor tracking system (BLE-ITS) is presented. The BLE-ITS is a promising, inexpensive alternative to the well-known GPS. It can be used in human traffic analysis, such as indoor tourist facilities. Tourists or other customers are tagged...
Geriatric infections: Decreased immunity or evolved opportunists?
Published in Journal of Biosciences
In host–parasite co-evolution, parasites are assumed to have an advantage owing to their shorter generation time. Evolution of pathogens within the lifetime of a host individual is implicated as a strong selective force in the evolution of sex and aging in the host. However, this assumption or its testable predictions have not been examined empiric...
The role of maternal diet on offspring gut microbiota development: A review.
Published in Journal of neuroscience research
In offspring, an adequate maternal diet is important for neurodevelopment. One mechanism by which maternal diet impacts neurodevelopment is through its dynamic role in the development of the gut microbiota. Communication between the gut, and its associated microbiota, and the brain is facilitated by the vagus nerve, in addition to other routes. Cur...
The GLP-1R agonist liraglutide limits hepatic lipotoxicity and inflammatory response in mice fed a methionine-choline de...
...Published in Translational research : the journal of laboratory and clinical medicine
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common hepatic disorder related to type 2 diabetes (T2D). The disease can evolve toward nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), a state of hepatic inflammation and fibrosis. There is presently no drug that effectively improves and/or prevents NAFLD/NASH/fibrosis. GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1Ra) ar...
The structures of the GH13_36 amylases from Eubacterium rectale and Ruminococcus bromii reveal subsite architectures tha...
Published in Amylase
Bacteria in the human gut including Ruminococcus bromii and Eubacterium rectale encode starch-active enzymes that dictate how these bacteria interact with starch to initiate a metabolic cascade that leads to increased butyrate. Here, we determined the structures of two predicted secreted glycoside hydrolase 13 subfamily 36 (GH13_36) enzymes: ErAmy1...
The Use of Image Analysis to Detect Seed Contamination-A Case Study of Triticale.
Published in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Samples of triticale seeds of various qualities were assessed in the study. The seeds were obtained during experiments, reflecting the actual sowing conditions. The experiments were conducted on an original test facility designed by the authors of this study. The speed of the air (15, 20, 25 m/s) transporting seeds in the pneumatic conduit was adju...
Longitudinal Outcomes in Octogenarian Critically Ill Patients with a Focus on Frailty and Cardiac Surgery.
Published in Journal of clinical medicine
Cardiac surgery (CSX) can be lifesaving in elderly patients (age ≥ 80 years) but may still be associated with complications and functional decline. Frailty represents a determinant to outcomes in critically ill patients, but little is known about its influence on elderly CSX-patients. This is a secondary exploratory analysis of a multi-center, pros...
