We use Singapore dataset to illustrate “coexistence state” and “dominance state” of a language. by Zejie Zhou (8828054)

“…<p>“X” represents the fractions of languages and <i>τ</i> represents time steps. (A) After <i>τ</i> = 2500, competing languages stay in coexistence state with English acquiring the largest fraction of speakers. …”

An investigation into the effect on the radiation shielding of an aqueous solution when a solute is added by Tom Whyntie (101262)

“…<p>Our experiment is an investigation into the effect on the radiation shielding of an aqueous solution when a solute is added. We hypothesised that as the concentration of sucrose increased, the total number of detected particles would decrease. …”

Gene Expression Analysis Implicates a Death Receptor Pathway in Schizophrenia Pathology by Vibeke Sørensen Catts (168775)

“…Also, a significantly larger proportion of subjects in the schizophrenia group had elevated FAS receptor expression in the DLPFC relative to unaffected controls. …”

Entropy contours of a model in which tags are drawn from the overall distribution of votes. by Jasleen Kaur (307923)

“…The colors represent the magnitude of the decrease in entropy, . Our heuristic threshold , also plotted, tries to capture the number of votes that results in the largest decrease in entropy, making a tag reliable.…”

Analysis of correlations between identified metabolites and steroid hormones with general characteristic data. by Saoraya Chanmuang (13242534)

Justification for a taxonomic conservation update of the rodent genus <i>Tamiasciurus</i>: addressing marginalization and mis-prioritization of research efforts and conservation <i... by M. Steiner (5804987)

“…Additional solutions are presented to simplify classification with reduced errors and confusion in the animal kingdom. A larger future effort of this style is sought to greatly decrease marginalization, to improve the current lack of research priority and “<i>laissez-faire”</i> attitudes on environmental issues for a better relationship between humans and the biotic world. …”

Table1_The relationship between vegetation and soil moisture reveals the vegetation carrying capacity threshold—A case study of a Haloxylon ammodendron plantation in the Alxa deser... by Dongmeng Zhou (14495000)

“…However, over-afforestation makes soil drying occur frequently. The formation of a soil drying layer is seriously restricting the effectiveness of vegetation construction and regional ecological stability. …”

Reduction in cardiac PPARα does not induce cardiac hypertrophy or reduce cardiac function. by Natasha Fillmore (322163)

Sorting Nexin 6 Enhances Lamin A Synthesis and Incorporation into the Nuclear Envelope by Jose M. González-Granado (678540)

“…We further show that SNX6-dependent lamin A nuclear import occurs across the nuclear pore complex via a RAN-GTP-dependent mechanism. …”

Excess Winter Mortality and Cold Temperatures in a Subtropical City, Guangzhou, China by Chun-Quan Ou (45848)

“…A much larger winter increase was observed in out-of-hospital mortality compared to in-hospital mortality (45% vs. 17%). …”

Alterations in the composition of gut microbiome in phylum and genus. by Xueyan Lin (448667)

Alternative-NHEJ Is a Mechanistically Distinct Pathway of Mammalian Chromosome Break Repair by Nicole Bennardo (93380)

“…These results suggest that the regulation of DSB end-processing via KU/CtIP is a common step during alt-NHEJ, SSA, and HDR/GC. …”

Improvement of saline soils with Vicia sativa L. from a semiarid region by Marcos Afonso Lastiri Hernández (5667116)

“…The high concentrations of Na+ found in both the stems and leaves of this plant confirm that it may be used for the improvement of moderately saline soils. The decrease in pH, ECe, SAR and ESP in the pots via non-leaching conditions confirmed their role in the improvement of the chemical characteristics of the soil.…”

Bar graphs showing the mean dominance indices (DI) as a function of time. by Chun-Chun Chen (147635)

“…<p>The results shown are: before visual exposure (control) and after visual exposure for three groups of animals up to 1 day (A), up to 3 days (B) and up to 7 days (C). Seeing aggressive acts by the larger conspecific male continuously suppressed the dominant behavior of the subjects. …”

Seasonal Trophic Niche Shift and Cascading Effect of a Generalist Predator Fish by Jun Xu (45543)

“…Yellow catfish adjusted their foraging strategies to temporal changes in food availability, which is in agreement with optimal foraging theory. Meanwhile the decrease in planktivory and benthivory of yellow catfish enabled primary consumers, such as zooplankton and benthic invertebrates, to develop under low grazing pressure via trophic cascading effects in the local food web. …”

Detection of Antibodies in Blood Plasma Using Bioluminescent Sensor Proteins and a Smartphone by Remco Arts (1896490)

“…LUMABS are single-protein sensors that consist of the blue-light emitting luciferase NanoLuc connected via a semiflexible linker to the green fluorescent acceptor protein mNeonGreen, which are kept close together using helper domains. …”

Malformations of cardiac valves in <i>Drosophila.</i> by Christian Meyer (6035)

The Combination of Quantitative Proteomics and Systems Genetics Analysis Reveals that PTN Is Associated with Sleep-Loss-Induced Cognitive Impairment by Yutong Zhou (5492852)

“…Gene co-expression analysis further revealed the potential mechanism by which Ptn mediates insomnia-induced cognitive impairment via the MAPK signaling pathway; that is, the decreased secretion of Ptn induced by insomnia leads to reduced binding to Ptprz1 on the postsynaptic membrane with the activation of the MAPK pathway via Fos and Nr4a1, further leading to the apoptosis of neurons. …”
