The Role of Socially Assistive Robots for the Improvement of Quality of Life in Elderly People: A Systematic Review

IEEE Access
The rapid aging of global populations has intensified the need for innovative solutions to support older adults’ well-being. Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) have emerged as a promising intervention; however, the field faces a “ ...

A case of feline systemic reactive angioendotheliomatosis

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports, 2015
A 3-year-old domestic shorthair cat presented with lethargy and anorexia. A blood test showed regenerative anaemia and thrombocytopenia. Thoracic radiographs showed a small amount of pleural effusion.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Intellectual Capital and Financial Performance in Small Manufacturing Companies: The Moderating Effect of Managerial Ambidexterity

IEEE Access
We verify the moderating effect of managerial ambidexterity on the relationship between intellectual capital and financial performance of small manufacturing companies in Peru. This study used a quantitative, nonexperimental, cross-sectional design.

Thermal Face Generation Using StyleGAN

IEEE Access, 2021
This article proposes the use of generative adversarial networks (GANs) via StyleGAN2 to create high-quality synthetic thermal images and obtain training data to build thermal face recognition models using deep learning. We employed different variants of

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Using Twitter to Infer User Satisfaction With Public Transport: The Case of Santiago, Chile

IEEE Access, 2019
User satisfaction is an important aspect to consider in any public transport system, and as such, regular and sound measurements of its levels are fundamental. However, typical evaluation schemes involve costly and time-consuming surveys.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

FEBS 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 ...
