Urbanization and Vector Species Shape Avian Malaria Prevalence in Mosquitoes

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Avian malaria prevalence was assessed in two mosquito species across urban and peri‐urban habitats. No infections were detected in either species in urban areas, while a 2.53% prevalence was found in the native Culex pipiens from peri‐urban sites, highlighting the influence of urbanization on parasite transmission dynamics.

Bipolar Disorder and the Risk of Cardiovascular Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Observational Studies

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic psychiatric illness characterized by recurrent manic and depressive episodes, affecting 2% of the global population. It is associated with premature mortality, including cardiovascular disease (CVD)‐related mortality.

Determining the Number of Discrete Alphabet Sources from Sensor Data

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2005
Determining the number of sources in a received wave field is a well-known and a well-investigated problem. In this problem, the number of sources impinging on an array of sensors is to be estimated.

Minimum description length revisited

International Journal of Mathematics for Industry, 2019
This is an up-to-date introduction to and overview of the Minimum Description Length (MDL) Principle, a theory of inductive inference that can be applied to general problems in statistics, machine learning and pattern recognition.

Atrial natriuretic peptide counteracts aldosterone secretion by preventing acute angiotensin II‐induced cAMP signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

Pharmacological activation of SIRT6 suppresses progression of head and neck and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma by modulation of cellular metabolism and protein translation

Cell Death and Disease
Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), a NAD+-dependent histone deacetylase, has been shown to function as a tumor suppressor in several cancer types, including squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck and the esophagus (HNSCC and ESCC).

Minimum Description Length Codes Are Critical

Entropy, 2018
In the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle, learning from the data is equivalent to an optimal coding problem. We show that the codes that achieve optimal compression in MDL are critical in a very precise sense.

Topology‐based Visual Analysis of Hydrothermal Plumes

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrothermal plumes are turbulent structures of intense heat and mineral smoke that rise and disperse into the deep ocean. Existing models generally characterize these systems as a single axisymmetric plume originating from a point source. However, this assumption breaks down in weakly venting, spatially distributed systems, where low‐flux ...
