Phages in the Human Body [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Bacteriophages, viruses that infect bacteria, have re-emerged as powerful regulators of bacterial populations in natural ecosystems. Phages invade the human body, just as they do other natural environments, to such an extent that they are the most numerous group in the human virome. This was only revealed in recent metagenomic studies, despite the fact

Urate Handling in the Human Body [PDF]

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2016
Elevated serum urate concentration is the primary cause of gout. Understanding the processes that affect serum urate concentration is important for understanding the etiology of gout and thereby understanding treatment. Urate handing in the human body is a complex system including three major processes: production, renal elimination, and intestinal ...

PARE: Part Attention Regressor for 3D Human Body Estimation [PDF]

IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision, 2021
Despite significant progress, we show that state of the art 3D human pose and shape estimation methods remain sensitive to partial occlusion and can produce dramatically wrong predictions although much of the body is observable.

First Evidence of Microplastics in Human Urine, a Preliminary Study of Intake in the Human Body

Toxics, 2022
The ubiquitous presence of microplastics (MPs) and their health effects is a recent scientific topic. However, the investigation of MPs in human/biological matrices has several limitations due to analytical methods and sample treatment protocols. In this

Human Body Fluid [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2013
Human body fluids are considered as attractive sources for clinical markers. As for disease diagnosis and prognosis, advantages of body fluid testing include low invasiveness, low cost, and rapid sample collection and processing. Besides, altered protein expression profiles in body fluids reflect the change of physiological states and cellular networks

VIBE: Video Inference for Human Body Pose and Shape Estimation [PDF]

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2019
Human motion is fundamental to understanding behavior. Despite progress on single-image 3D pose and shape estimation, existing video-based state-of-the-art methods fail to produce accurate and natural motion sequences due to a lack of ground-truth 3D ...
