Presbycusis: Pathology, Signal Pathways, and Therapeutic Strategy
In ARHL, the stria vascularis, acting as a cochlear battery, gradually loses its ability to maintain the endocochlear potential, leading to impaired hair cell function and progressive hearing loss. Single‐cell sequencing reveals age‐related cellular changes in the cochlea, providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of aging and potential ...

Avoiding Occupancy Detection from Smart Meter using Adversarial Machine Learning [PDF]
More and more conventional electromechanical meters are being replaced with smart meters because of their substantial benefits such as providing faster bi-directional communication between utility services and end users, enabling direct load control for demand response, energy saving, and so on.

Dynamical phase transition in drifted Brownian motion [PDF]
We study the occupation fluctuations of drifted Brownian motion in a closed interval, and show that they undergo a dynamical phase transition in the long-time limit without an additional low-noise limit. This phase transition is similar to wetting and depinning transitions, and arises here as a switching between paths of the random motion leading to ...

Mechanical Forces Guide Axon Growth through the Nigrostriatal Pathway in an Organotypic Model
Nano‐pulling is a magnetic nanoparticle‐based technology for guiding and promoting the axon growth of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived dopaminergic neurospheres in vitro or neural progenitors transplanted in the brain tissue. Fine control of axon guidance is essential for reconstructing neural networks and restoring functional connectivity in the ...

Effects of occupational noise and dust exposure on fasting plasma glucose in workers
BackgroundNoise and dust are the most widespread occupational hazards. Animal studies have shown that they may cause impaired fasting glucose (IFG) by disturbing glucose metabolism and impairing the function of pancreatic islet cells, which can lead to ...

Warped Gaussian Processes Occupancy Mapping with Uncertain Inputs [PDF]
In this paper, we study extensions to the Gaussian Processes (GPs) continuous occupancy mapping problem. There are two classes of occupancy mapping problems that we particularly investigate. The first problem is related to mapping under pose uncertainty and how to propagate pose estimation uncertainty into the map inference.

Occupational noise-induced hearing loss [PDF]
Occupational noise-induced hearing loss is, at least in theory, preventable. One way to assess the problem and whether preventative measures are effective is to assess employees' hearing. In order to minimize cost and time off work this can be carried out effectively in the workplace as long as certain conditions are met.
