Selective agonists of the glucocorticoid receptor (SEGRA) as an alternative to glucocorticoids: a pilot study of their effects on normal mouse brain tissue in the context of an acute peripheral inflammatory model in vivo [PDF]

Frontiers in Oncology
BackgroundGlucocorticoids (GCs) are used to treat multiple pathologies; however, their prolonged use leads to numerous adverse effects. Non-steroidal selective agonists of the glucocorticoid receptor (SEGRAs) have the potential to be a worthy substitute ...

Sensor Self-location with FTM Measurements [PDF]

2020 16th International Conference on Wireless and Mobile Computing, Networking and Communications (WiMob), 2020
Multidimensional Scaling is commonly used to solve multi-sensor location problems. In this paper, we show that such technique provides poor results in the case of indoor location problems based on 802.11 Fine Timing Measurements, especially when the number of anchors is small. We then propose an iterative approach based on geometric resolution of angle
