Rotavirus infections and climate variability in Dhaka, Bangladesh: a time-series analysis. [PDF]
Attempts to explain the clear seasonality of rotavirus infections have been made by relating disease incidence to climate factors; however, few studies have disentangled the effects of weather from other factors that might cause seasonality.

A model for Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infection and disease development in lettuce, based on the effects of temperature, relative humidity and ascospore density [PDF]
The plant pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum can cause serious losses on lettuce crops worldwide and as for most other susceptible crops, control relies on the application of fungicides, which target airborne ascospores.

Multiresonator-Based Printable Chipless RFID for Relative Humidity Sensing
We present a chipless RFID for relative humidity sensing. It consists of three spiral resonators coupled to a 50 Ω microstrip line. One resonator is used for humidity sensing, and the other two are used for encoding ID.

Humidity Drift Modeling and Compensation of MEMS Gyroscope Based on IAWTD-CSVM-EEMD Algorithms
A novel fusion algorithm is proposed based on Improved Adaptive Wavelet Threshold De-noising (IAWTD), C-means Support Vector Machine (CSVM) and Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) method to eliminate the humidity drift of MEMS gyroscope. Firstly,

Mould and winter indoor relative humidity in low income households in England
This paper examines the extent to which variation in heating-season, indoor relative humidity (RH) and mould occurrence in English households is explained by dwelling and household characteristics. It is based on analysis of data from a national study of

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

A microwave interferometer system for humidity measurement
A microwave interferometer system for humidity measurement has been developed. The system is based on the sensitivity of the air permittivity to the water vapor content and offers a faster response and a better air pollution insensitivity with respect to

Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.
