Functional Connectome Fingerprint Gradients in Young Adults [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
The assessment of brain fingerprints has emerged in the recent years as an important tool to study individual differences and to infer quality of neuroimaging datasets. Studies so far have mainly focused on connectivity fingerprints between different brain scans of the same individual.

Demonstration of a Standalone, Descriptive, and Predictive Digital Twin of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Digital Twins bring several benefits for planning, operation, and maintenance of remote offshore assets. In this work, we explain the digital twin concept and the capability level scale in the context of wind energy. Furthermore, we demonstrate a standalone digital twin, a descriptive digital twin, and a prescriptive digital twin of an operational ...

Monozygotic twins discordant for constitutive BRCA1 promoter methylation, childhood cancer and secondary cancer

Epigenetics, 2012
We describe monozygotic twins discordant for childhood leukemia and secondary thyroid carcinoma. We used bisulfite pyrosequencing to compare the constitutive promoter methylation of BRCA1 and several other tumor suppressor genes in primary fibroblasts ...

Proteomic associations with fluctuation and long‐term changes in BMI: A 40‐year follow‐up study

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction While some studies have explored associations between weight change and blood proteins, most have been intervention‐based, offering limited insight into proteomic associations with long‐term weight gain. It remains unclear whether plasma proteins are related to BMI fluctuation over time.

Lifespans of Twins : Does Zygosity Matter? [PDF]

, 2019
Studies with twins provide fundamental insights to lifespans of humans. We aim to clarify if monozygotic and dizygotic twin individuals differ in lifespan, that is, if zygosity matters.

Isolated imperforate anus in dizygotic twins

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2023
The authors report an isolated imperforate anus case in a dizygotic twin, which is the first reported case in the literature, the other reported cases were in monozygotic twins.

Crohn's disease in monozygotic twins [PDF]

Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1986
Summary A pair of monozygotic twins with Crohn's disease is described. Both have ileocaecal disease and suffered their first symptoms after living apart for 6 years. The pathogenic role of hereditary and environmental factors is discussed in the light of this and previous reports of twins with Crohn's disease.

Protocol for an Observational Study on the Effects of Early-Life Participation in Contact Sports on Later-Life Cognition in a Sample of Monozygotic and Dizygotic Swedish Twins Reared Together and Twins Reared Apart [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
A large body of work links traumatic brain injury (TBI) in adulthood to the onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is the chief cause of dementia, leading to reduced cognitive capacity and autonomy and increased mortality risk. More recently, researchers have sought to investigate whether TBI experienced in early-life may influence trajectories of ...

Digital Twins Are Not Monozygotic -- Cross-Replicating ADAS Testing in Two Industry-Grade Automotive Simulators [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
The increasing levels of software- and data-intensive driving automation call for an evolution of automotive software testing. As a recommended practice of the Verification and Validation (V&V) process of ISO/PAS 21448, a candidate standard for safety of the intended functionality for road vehicles, simulation-based testing has the potential to reduce ...
