Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Detailed comparison of two popular variant calling packages for exome and targeted exon studies [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
The Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) is commonly used for variant calling of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and small insertions and deletions (indels) from short-read sequencing data aligned against a reference genome.

Forecasting emergency medical service call arrival rates

open access: yesThe Annals of Applied Statistics, 2011
We introduce a new method for forecasting emergency call arrival rates that combines integer-valued time series models with a dynamic latent factor structure. Covariate information is captured via simple constraints on the factor loadings. We directly model the count-valued arrivals per hour, rather than using an artificial assumption of normality ...

Minimum Rate Guaranteed Call Admission Control for Cumulative Rate Distribution Based Scheduling [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Communications Letters, 2011
In this letter, we investigate call admission control (CAC) for cumulative rate distribution based scheduling (CS) in wireless communication networks. We first analyze the multi-user diversity gain (MDG) of CS, which is applicable to general channel conditions. Then we propose the minimum rate guaranteed CS/ORR based CAC algorithm, COCAC, which jointly

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Examination of call setup success rate and dropped call rate for 4g networks in Yenagoa-southern Nigeria

open access: yesWorld Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews
This study compares the call setup success rate and dropped call rate of four mobile telecommunication networks operating in Yenagoa, Southern Nigeria, to industry benchmarks and competitor networks in an effort to identify areas for improvement, set performance targets, and establish a relationship between them. The results show that the four networks

Auto-spermatophore extrusion in male crickets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The reproductive cycle of the male cricket consists of the mating stage and the sexually refractory stage. The latter is further divided into the first refractory stage (RS1) from spermatophore extrusion in copulation to spermatophore preparation after ...

Calling underwater is a costly signal: size-related differences in the call rates of Antarctic leopard seals

open access: yesCurrent Zoology, 2017
It is proposed that where sexually selected vocal communication is an honest signal, the call production rate is predicted to change throughout the breeding season.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...
