Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Survivors of pediatric brain tumors (PBTs) can experience long‐term social difficulties, impacting quality of life. Beyond medical and environmental factors, family psychosocial risk may play a role in social outcomes by shaping the caregiving environment and may provide intervention options.

Does optic flow parsing depend on prior estimation of heading? [PDF]
, 2012 We have recently suggested that neural flow parsing mechanisms act to subtract global optic flow consistent with observer movement to aid in detecting and assessing scene-relative object movement.

Head Direction Estimation from Silhouette [PDF]
, 2013 Due to the absence of features that may be extracted from face, heading direction estimation for low resolution images is a difficult task and requires the taking into account all information that may be inferred from human body in image, particularly its silhouette.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Gravity-Based Methods for Heading Computation in Pedestrian Dead Reckoning
Sensors, 2019 One of the common ways for solving indoor navigation is known as Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR), which employs inertial and magnetic sensors typically embedded in a smartphone carried by a user.

Research on improved PDR algorithm for underground personnel positioning
Gong-kuang zidonghua, 2021 As the traditional pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) algorithm being used for underground personnel positioning, the positioning error gradually increases due to the cumulative error of the step frequency detection, step length estimation and heading ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

A Multi-Mode PDR Perception and Positioning System Assisted by Map Matching and Particle Filtering
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 Currently, pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) is widely used in indoor positioning. Since there are restrictions on a device’s pose in the procedure of using a smartphone to perform the PDR algorithm, this study proposes a novel heading estimation ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...
