Comparative study of adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase domains of MuF polymorphic toxins
With the ultimate goal of understanding the association of toxin‐immunity modules to temperate phages, we characterized toxins from three prophages and examined cross‐protection from immunity proteins. The toxins exhibit adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase activity and are toxic in Escherichia coli.

Identifying Health Risks from Family History: A Survey of Natural Language Processing Techniques [PDF]
Electronic health records include information on patients' status and medical history, which could cover the history of diseases and disorders that could be hereditary. One important use of family history information is in precision health, where the goal is to keep the population healthy with preventative measures.

Epistemological Distinctions Between Science and History [PDF]
This article describes epistemological distinctions between science and history. Science investigates models of natural law using repeatable experiments as the ultimate arbiter. In contrast, history investigates past events by considering physical evidence, documentary evidence, and eyewitness testimony.

A method for measuring spatial resolution based on clinical chest CT sequence images
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to develop and validate a method for characterizing the spatial resolution of clinical chest computed tomography (CT) sequence images. Methods An algorithm for characterizing spatial resolution based on clinical chest CT sequence images was developed in Matlab (2021b).
