Perinatal Lamb Model of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Infection
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most frequent cause of bronchiolitis in infants and children worldwide. Many animal models are used to study RSV, but most studies investigate disease in adult animals which does not address the unique physiology ...

Analyzing the Degree Distribution of the One-mode Projection of an Alphabetic Bipartite Network (α-BIN) [PDF]
The paper is being withdrawn since the authors felt that the submission is a little premature after a careful reading by some of the experts in this field.

Translation termination depends on the sequential ribosomal entry of eRF1 and eRF3.
Translation termination requires eRF1 and eRF3 for polypeptide-and tRNA-release on stop codons. Additionally, Dbp5/DDX19 and Rli1/ABCE1 are required; however, their function in this process is currently unknown.

Considering the Risks and Costs of Solid Organ Xenotransplantation
This perspective discusses the rationale, risks, and costs of whole‐organ xenotransplantation. It considers alternative strategies to obviate the demand for transplants and optimize allotransplantation systems and practices that do not impose xenotransplantation's harms and risks, and whether they are the most ethical and effective means to increase ...

Sustained Neuromuscular Blockade after Vecuronium Use in a Premature Infant
Background Prolonged use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) is very common in critically ill children both in pediatric and neonatal intensive care units. There are no guidelines available for use of NMBAs in children or neonates in the US, and the

Modified Soft Brood Crossover in Genetic Programming [PDF]
Premature convergence is one of the important issues while using Genetic Programming for data modeling. It can be avoided by improving population diversity. Intelligent genetic operators can help to improve the population diversity. Crossover is an important operator in Genetic Programming. So, we have analyzed number of intelligent crossover operators

Depletion of TP53 in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells Triggers Malignant‐Like Behavior
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) with TP53‐depleting mutations are generated, mimicking commonly occurring events in vitro. Loss of TP53 does not alter pluripotency status or in vitro differentiation potential but causes genetic instability and transcriptome changes and confers superior clonal and anchorage‐free growth and higher chemotherapeutic ...

Retinopathy of Prematurity Stage Diagnosis Using Object Segmentation and Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye disorder primarily affecting premature infants with lower weights. It causes proliferation of vessels in the retina and could result in vision loss and, eventually, retinal detachment, leading to blindness. While human experts can easily identify severe stages of ROP, the diagnosis of earlier stages, which are
