The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease
iNew Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Iris Recognition Without Iris Normalization [PDF]
Journal of Computer Science, 2010 Problem statement: In any real time biometric system processing speed and recognition time are crucial parameters. Reducing processing time involves many parameters like normalization, FAR, FRR, management of eyelid and eyelash occlusions, size of signature etc. Normalization consumes substantial amount of time of the system.

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Efficient irrigation scheduling is critical in sandy soils to achieve optimum yield and maximum net benefit with minimum environmental concerns. The Environmental Policy Integrated Climate (EPIC) model was used to study the impacts of autoirrigation of corn on crop yield and soil water balance during 2019–2021 at −300 and −450 kPa for loamy ...

Detecting Small Signs from Large Images
, 2017 In the past decade, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been demonstrated successful for object detections. However, the size of network input is limited by the amount of memory available on GPUs. Moreover, performance degrades when detecting small

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ischemic reperfusion injury (IRI) to kidney is a significant clinical factor in acute kidney injury (AKI). This study aimed to investigate the new role of RNA‐binding motif protein X‐linked (RBMX), a modulator of m6A methylation, in renal IRI and to examine the associated regulatory mechanisms. An in vitro renal IRI model was established using
