Labor Trafficking Victimization among Farmworkers in North Carolina: Role of Demographic Characteristics and Acculturation [PDF]

, 2014
Human trafficking is a hidden domestic and international problem of unknown numbers and unsubstantiated estimates. Most research on labor trafficking has focused on known cases through conducting stakeholder interviews and reviewing police and court case

PARP inhibitors elicit distinct transcriptional programs in homologous recombination competent castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PARP inhibitors are used to treat a small subset of prostate cancer patients. These studies reveal that PARP1 activity and expression are different between European American and African American prostate cancer tissue samples. Additionally, different PARP inhibitors cause unique and overlapping transcriptional changes, notably, p53 pathway upregulation.

TOWARDS AN ACCURATE LOW-COST STEREO-BASED NAVIGATION OF UNMANNED PLATFORMS IN GNSS-DENIED AREAS [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2019
While lightweight stereo vision sensors provide detailed and high-resolution information that allows robust and accurate localization, the computation demands required for such process is doubled compared to monocular sensors.

Geo-mapping atmospheric corrosion in Mauritius

Corrosion Engineering, Science and Technology: The International Journal of Corrosion Processes and Corrosion Control
The complexity of atmospheric corrosion prediction in Mauritius, due to the influence of trade winds and mountainous landscapes, presents a hurdle in building a more resilient infrastructural system. In the absence of a corrosion map, the corrosion rate at a specific location is difficult to estimate.

Investigating the cell of origin and novel molecular targets in Merkel cell carcinoma: a historic misnomer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study indicates that Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) does not originate from Merkel cells, and identifies gene, protein & cellular expression of immune‐linked and neuroendocrine markers in primary and metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) tumor samples, linked to Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) status, with enrichment of B‐cell and other immune cell

China’s poverty assessment and analysis under the framework of the UN SDGs based on multisource remote sensing data

Geo-spatial Information Science, 2022
Poverty has always been a global concern that has restricted human development. The first goal (SDG 1) of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to eliminate all forms of poverty all over the world.

Geo-mapping Frontiers: predictive geology map of the Ennadai region, Nunavut

, 2013
In the final phase of the Geomapping for Energy and Minerals (GEM) Program, a project entitled Geo-mapping Frontiers ( http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/about/current-program/geomapping/minerals/11975 ) was initiated to improve geoscience knowledge in the least understood parts of Canada's north.

Modeling hepatic fibrosis in TP53 knockout iPSC‐derived human liver organoids

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study developed iPSC‐derived human liver organoids with TP53 gene knockout to model human liver fibrosis. These organoids showed elevated myofibroblast activation, early disease markers, and advanced fibrotic hallmarks. The use of profibrotic differentiation medium further amplified the fibrotic signature seen in the organoids.

Patient‐specific pharmacogenomics demonstrates xCT as predictive therapeutic target in colon cancer with possible implications in tumor connectivity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study integrates transcriptomic profiling of matched tumor and healthy tissues from 32 colorectal cancer patients with functional validation in patient‐derived organoids, revealing dysregulated metabolic programs driven by overexpressed xCT (SLC7A11) and SLC3A2, identifying an oncogenic cystine/glutamate transporter signature linked to ...

GNSS/INS Fusion with Virtual Lever-Arm Measurements

Sensors, 2018
The navigation subsystem in most platforms is based on an inertial navigation system (INS). Regardless of the INS grade, its navigation solution drifts in time.
