Biodiversity, Catchability, and Conservation Status of Sharks and Rays from Fishermen's Bycatch at the Pondokdadap Coastal Fishing Port, East Java - Indonesia [PDF]
Sharks and rays belong to the Chondrichthyes class, characterized by low reproductive rates and slow growth rates, which makes them highly vulnerable to overfishing. These conservation priority fish are generally bycatch of fishermen.

Performance of a deep learning CNN model for the automated detection of 13 common conditions on Chest X-rays [PDF]
Background and aims: Chest X-rays are widely used, non-invasive, cost effective imaging tests. However, the complexity of interpretation and global shortage of radiologists have led to reporting backlogs, delayed diagnosis and a compromised quality of ...

Acute normal tissue responses in a murine model following fractionated irradiation of the head and neck with protons or X-rays [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to investigate acute normal tissue responses in the head and neck region following proton- or X-irradiation of a murine model. Female C57BL/6J mice were irradiated with protons (25 or 60 MeV) or X-rays (100 kV).
