Clustering Longitudinal Data: A Review of Methods and Software Packages

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Clustering of longitudinal data is becoming increasingly popular in many fields such as social sciences, business, environmental science, medicine and healthcare. However, it is often challenging due to the complex nature of the data, such as dependencies between observations collected over time, missingness, sparsity and non‐linearity, making ...

Vernal growth of vocal control nucleus Area X, but not HVC, precedes gonadal recrudescence in wild black‐capped chickadees (Poecile atricapillus)

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
According to the longstanding model of vernal recrudescence of the songbird vocal control system, upregulation of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal axis, and specifically testosterone (T), promotes growth first of HVC, and then Area X. In this study, we show that in black‐capped chickadees, Area X is already fully recrudesced ahead of HPG axis ...

Estrogenic regulation of hippocampal inhibitory system across lifespan

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract Estrogens produced in peripheral tissues and locally in the brain are potent neuromodulators. The function of the hippocampus, a brain region essential for episodic memory and spatial navigation, relies on the activity of ensembles of excitatory neurons whose activity is temporally and spatially coordinated by a wide diversity of inhibitory ...

The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract There are over 1000 varieties of steroids that have been reported in nature, including the endogenous sex steroid hormones (i.e., progesterone, testosterone, and 17β‐estradiol) and corticosteroids which are mainly synthesized by gonads and adrenals, respectively.

Neuroactive steroid exposure impacts neurodevelopment: Comparison of human and rodent placental contribution

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, EarlyView.
Abstract The placenta is a fetal endocrine organ that secretes many neuroactive factors, including steroids, that play critical roles in brain development. The study of the placenta‐brain axis and the links between placental function and brain development represents an emerging research area dubbed “neuroplacentology.” The placenta drives many ...
