Metrics for Stereoscopic Image Compression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Metrics for automatically predicting the compression settings for stereoscopic images, to minimize file size, while still maintaining an acceptable level of image quality are investigated.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Evaluation of abdominal compression band for pediatric postural tachycardia syndrome: a crossover study

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundAbdominal compression is an effective nonpharmacological treatment for orthostatic intolerance. Although the efficacy of abdominal compression bands has been studied in adults, studies involving children are limited. This study investigates the

The Text-Organizing Function of Compression in English Scientific Discourse

open access: yesArmenian Folia Anglistika, 2016
English scientific discourse can be characterized as a key area of the economy principle realization in the form of text compression. The latter carries out a major text-organizing function due to its potential to form implicit meanings and ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Do lycra garments improve function and movement in children with cerebral palsy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The mother of a 5-year-old boy with athetoid cerebral palsy complains of difficulties putting his Lycra suit on each day. She is keen to know if it actually helps improve his function and movement.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Bone adaptation to mechanical loading in a mouse model of reduced peripheral sensory nerve function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Underlying mechanisms contributing to the imbalance in bone turnover during osteoporosis remain only partially explained. Reduced sensory nerve function may contribute to this imbalance, as sensory neuropeptides affect the activity of osteoblasts and ...

Effect of compression by elastic bandages on pain and function in individuals with knee osteoarthritis: protocol of a randomised controlled clinical trial

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2022
Introduction Although compression is used to control pain in knee osteoarthritis (KOA), its clinical application is poorly supported, and there is a lack of scientific evidence to support its clinical use.

Hardware prototyping of Boolean function classification schemes for lossless data compression

open access: yes, 2004
In this paper, we present the realization of Boolean function classification schemes on Altera FLEX10K FPGA device for lossless data compression. The compression algorithm is performed by incorporating Boolean function classification into Huffman coding.
