A semi-empirical risk panel to monitor epidemics: multi-faceted tool to assist healthcare and public health professionals

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
IntroductionBronchiolitis, mostly caused by Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), and influenza among other respiratory infections, lead to seasonal saturation at healthcare centers in temperate areas. There is no gold standard to characterize the stages of

Using Temperature of IR Sources for Assessing Photochemical and Aphakic Retinal Hazard [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Physics, 2016
Introduction Blue light is a part of the spectrum with the highest energy content, which can reach the retina. The damage that it can cause to the retina is called photochemical or blue-light retinal injury.

The scalar-isoscalar spectral function of strong matter in a large N approximation

open access: yes, 2002
The enhancement of the scalar-isoscalar spectral function near the two-pion threshold is studied in the framework of an effective linear $\sigma$ model, using a large N approximation in the number of the Goldstone bosons. The effect is rather insensitive

Microplastic Effect Thresholds for Freshwater Benthic Macroinvertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Science & Technology, 2018
Now that microplastics have been detected in lakes, rivers, and estuaries all over the globe, evaluating their effects on biota has become an urgent research priority. This is the first study that aims at determining the effect thresholds for a battery of six freshwater benthic macroinvertebrates with different species traits, using a wide range of ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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.

Divergence coding for convolutional codes

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
In the paper we propose a new coding/decoding on the divergence principle. A new divergent multithreshold decoder (MTD) for convolutional self-orthogonal codes contains two threshold elements.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Neurophysiological effective network connectivity supports a threshold-dependent management of dynamic working memory gating

open access: yesiScience
Summary: To facilitate goal-directed actions, effective management of working memory (WM) is crucial, involving a hypothesized WM ''gating mechanism.'' We investigate the underlying neural basis through behavioral modeling and connectivity assessments ...

Response of graphene to femtosecond high-intensity laser irradiation

open access: yes, 2011
We study the response of graphene to high-intensity 10^11-10^12 Wcm^-2, 50-femtosecond laser pulse excitation. We establish that graphene has a fairly high (~3\times10^12Wcm^-2) single-shot damage threshold.

Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
