The Size, Demography, and Distribution of Cambodia's Largest Elephant Population Revealed Using Traditional Genetic Tools and a Novel SNP Panel

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Asian elephant population parameters were assessed using microsatellite, SNP, and sex determination DNA markers. This represents one of the first studies in mainland Asia to demonstrate that integrating microsatellite and SNP data enhances genotyping success from degraded fecal samples, increases the number of useable samples and markers, and ...

The Pharmacologic Treatment of Stuttering and Its Neuropharmacologic Basis

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Stuttering is a DSM V psychiatric condition for which there are no FDA-approved medications for treatment. A growing body of evidence suggests that dopamine antagonist medications are effective in reducing the severity of stuttering symptoms.

Genotyping Contemporary Captive and Historical Wild Western Lowland Gorillas Indicates Captive Breeding Is Maintaining Genetic Diversity in a Critically Endangered Primate

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Captive populations of threatened species risk losing genetic diversity over time. We evaluated the genetic status of contemporary captive western lowland gorillas (Gorilla gorilla gorilla) at Howletts and Port Lympne and compared this with specimens from a historical wild population.

Serotonin engages divergent 5‐HT receptor pathways for cell type‐resolved modulation of prefrontal layer 5 microcircuits

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Serotonin differentially modulates layer 5 mPFC microcircuits through cell type‐specific pre‐ and postsynaptic receptor pathways. Presynaptic 5‐HT1BRs suppress glutamate and GABA release, whereas presynaptic and postsynaptic 5‐HT3ARs enhance fast‐spiking interneuron activity, whilst distinct pyramidal neuron subtypes exhibit divergent 5‐HT1AR‐ and 5 ...

Methylphenidate and stuttering [PDF]

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2019
Methylphenidate (MPH) is a piperidine similar to amphetamines, and is indicated for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Studies concerning stuttering occurring with MPH are contradictory. We investigated the association between MPH and stuttering. We analysed reports in the World Health Organization global individual case safety reports database,

Splatshop: Efficiently Editing Large Gaussian Splat Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Splatshop, a highly optimized toolbox for interactive editing (selection, deletion, painting, transformation, …) of 3D Gaussian Splatting models. Utilizing a comprehensive collection of heuristic approaches, we carefully balance between exact and fast rendering to enable precise editing without sacrificing real‐time performance. Our

Variable‐Rate Texture Compression: Real‐Time Rendering with JPEG

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Although variable‐rate compressed image formats such as JPEG are widely used to efficiently encode images, they have not found their way into real‐time rendering due to special requirements such as random access to individual texels. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of variable‐rate texture compression on modern GPUs using the ...
