Extreme weather events cause damage to crops. Quantifying their impact on crop yields in farmers’ fields however remains difficult, as empirical data generally lacks detail, preventing to unravel causal effects from soil and management practices. Here we

ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

A hybrid approach to modelling, control and state estimation of mechanical systems with backlash
Control of mechanical systems with backlash is a topic well studied by many control practitioners. This interest has been motivated by the fact that backlash in mechanical systems can cause severe performance degradation and lead to instability of the ...

Adaptive Iterative Learning Control for High Precision Motion Systems [PDF]
Iterative learning control (ILC) is a very effective technique to reduce systematic errors that occur in systems that repetitively perform the same motion or operation.

Calibration of Electron Microscopes Through Deep Learning and Bayesian Optimization
Electron microscopes can create images at atomic resolution, enabling key developments across many scientific fields. To obtain high-resolution images, the inherent imperfections in the electromagnetic lenses have to be overcome by frequent and extensive

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Optimal control of a mechanical-hybrid powertrain
This paper presents the design of an optimal Energy Management Strategy (EMS) for a low-cost mechanical-hybrid powertrain. It uses mechanical components only a flywheel, clutches, gears, and a continuously variable transmission for its hybrid ...
