Carrion ecology: concepts, interdisciplinary synthesis, and perspectives

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carrion is a ubiquitous resource in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, yet it has long been overlooked in ecological research. Over the past two decades, studies on carrion and the many organisms that exploit it have flourished, revealing not only wide‐ranging ecological functions but also significance far beyond ecology.

sparr: Analyzing Spatial Relative Risk Using Fixed and Adaptive Kernel Density Estimation in R [PDF]

The estimation of kernel-smoothed relative risk functions is a useful approach to examining the spatial variation of disease risk. Though there exist several options for performing kernel density estimation in statistical software packages, there have ...

Classifying Discriminative Features for Blur Detection

, 2016
Blur detection in a single image is challenging especially when the blur is spatially-varying. Developing discriminative blur features is an open problem. In this paper, we propose a new kernel-specific feature vector consisting of the information of a

Artificial intelligence driven diet‐intestinal microbiota‐host health integration: A four‐dimensional paradigm for advancing host wellness research

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract presents a novel Diet‐Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐intestinal Microbiota–Host Health paradigm integrating microbiota‐centric pathways and an AI‐driven multi‐omics workflow. Diet shapes gut bacteria that regulate intestinal mucosal integrity, immune signaling, and gut–brain neurotransmitters to influence host health.

Identifiable regional and neural network abnormalities in early childhood anxiety

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although the neural underpinnings of anxiety have been investigated, most research has been confined to adolescence and adulthood, with less of a focus on the early childhood period. Little is known about the role of anticipatory fear processing early childhood, which is a sensitive period for anxiety development.

Kernel estimation for robust motion deblurring of noisy and blurry images

, 2016
Most state-of-the-art single image blind deblurring techniques are still sensitive to image noise, leading to serious performance degradation in their blur kernel estimation when the input image noise increases.

Standardized MRI‐Based Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume: Reproducibility and Agreement With Cardiac Computed Tomography

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is increasingly recognized as a cardiometabolic risk marker associated with adverse outcomes. The most established approach for EATV quantification is cardiac computed tomography (CT). MRI offers a radiation‐free alternative allowing simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and tissue ...

Ultra‐High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging and Quantification of Microvascular Flow in Xenograft Renal Cell Carcinoma in an Avian Chorioallantoic Membrane Model

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models initiated in avian chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) are under investigation to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic options with the objective of personalizing treatments. CAM PDXs paired with ultra‐high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS) imaging could potentially constitute prospective high throughput assays ...

From ACR O‐RADS 2022 to Explainable Deep Learning

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The 2022 update of the Ovarian‐Adnexal Reporting and Data System (O‐RADS) improves risk stratification of adnexal lesions; however, radiologist interpretation remains subject to inter‐observer variability and conservative diagnostic thresholds.
