We developed an algorithm for the early screening of autism spectrum disorder using baby cry sound. We collected the sound using a smartphone application to record it in their daily life. We employed the Japanese version of the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT) for the evaluation of the autism spectrum. We built a prediction model for binary classification using least absolute shr

Archaeologists create vast amounts of specialized data, which are often difficult to access, maintain, and reuse, even for practitioners themselves. In this article, we explore the implication of professional practices of data production in fueling archaeonormativity—i.e., the naturalization of behaviors and structures in archaeology that strip it of affect and meaning and that deny human (and non

We explore whether SAM2, a vision foundation model, can be used for accurate localization of eye image features that are used in lab-based eye tracking: corneal reflections (CRs), the pupil, and the iris. We prompted SAM2 via a typical hand annotation process that consisted of clicking on the pupil, CR, iris and sclera for only one image per participant. SAM2 was found to support better spatial pr

CRISPR-mediated gene activation (CRISPRa) encompasses a growing field of biotechnological approaches with exciting implications for gene therapy. However, there is a lack of experimental validation tools for selecting efficient sgRNAs for downstream applications. Here, we present a screening assay capable of identifying efficient single- and double sgRNAs through fluorescence quantification in vit

Advances in super-resolution microscopy enable the molecular profiling of cells and tissues at the nanoscale level, surpassing the diffraction limit of conventional light microscopy. However, super-resolution techniques typically require access to expensive specialized equipment and extensive training, limiting their broad applicability. Here we provide a detailed protocol for combining expansion

The macroscopic response governed by a statistical volume element, generated from 3D X-ray computer tomography images of paperboard, is explored. The statistical volume element, which consists of fibres and void, is derived from X-ray computer tomography images. Two filters for computing intensity fields and intensity gradients have been implemented and compared. Using an intensity threshold, the

This book provides a highly accessible and user-friendly overview of the essential concepts and terms related to the current global endeavour to implement the Sustainable Development Goals.With the first decade of the 15-year timespan of the 2030 Agenda now past, the SDGs show limited progress and several goals are even regressing. It is imperative that SDG implementation is accelerated until 2030

Urbanisation, lifestyles and environmental degradation are associated with negative health and environmental outcomes through reducing greenspace access. These risks are not experienced equally across society. While useful concepts like ‘extinction of experience’ exist, sociological writing on these important themes remains underdeveloped. Using regression and analysis of variance with survey data

Hydromechanical models of Darcy–Brinkman–Stokes type consider mass- and momentum conservation of an incompressible fluid on a domain with varying permeability. They include the two important limits of free flow governed by the classical Navier–Stokes equations and porous Darcy flow. The conceptual simplicity makes the model attractive from a modeling perspective, but any numerical solution procedu

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of pain and sedation management for screening or treatment of retinopathy of prematurity in preterm infants compared to placebo, no intervention, or other interventions.

This paper describes the development of a new variant of stereoselective strain-release driven reactions (formal homo [3 + 2] dipolar cycloadditions) which utilize housane (1) to construct functionalized amino alcohols and pyridine-substituted cyclopentanes in two to three steps from simple and easily available building blocks (nitrones and pyridine N-oxides respectively).

Vowel-based voice analysis is gaining attention as a potential non-invasive tool for COPD classification, offering insights into phonatory function. The growing need for voice data has necessitated the adoption of various techniques, including segmentation, to augment existing datasets for training comprehensive Machine Learning (ML) modelsThis study aims to investigate the possible effects of seg

Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To evaluate the benefits and harms of using NGS techniques compared to conventional newborn screening alone for pre-symptomatic identification of genetic diseases in newborns. Secondary objectives: to explore equity and ethical issues in the application of the new techniques, to inform healthcare d

Vertebrate photoreceptors have been studied for well over a century, but a fixed nomenclature for referring to orthologous cell types across diverse species has been lacking. Instead, photoreceptors have been variably—and often confusingly—named according to morphology, presence/absence of ‘rhodopsin’, spectral sensitivity, chromophore usage, and/or the gene family of the opsin(s) they express.
