Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), are characterized by the death of neurons within specific regions of the brain or spinal cord.While the etiology of many neurodegenerative diseases remains elusive, several factors are thought to contribute to the neu
A Robust and Device-Free System for the Recognition and Classification of Elderly Activities
Human activity recognition, tracking and classification is an essential trend in assisted living systems that can help support elderly people with their daily activities.Traditional activity recognition approaches depend Headwear on vision-based or sensor-based techniques.Nowadays, a novel promising technique has obtained more attention, namely dev
Tsunami damping by mangrove forest: a laboratory study using parameterized trees
Tsunami attenuation by coastal vegetation was examined under laboratory conditions for mature mangroves <i>Rhizophora</i> sp.The developed novel tree parameterization concept, accounting for both Label Printers bio-mechanical and structural tree properties, allowed to substitute the complex tree structure by a simplified tree model of i
Polycomb contraction differentially regulates terminal human hematopoietic differentiation programs
Abstract Background Lifelong production of the many types of mature blood cells from less differentiated progenitors is a hierarchically ordered process that spans multiple cell divisions.The nature and timing of the molecular events required to integrate the environmental signals, transcription factor activity, epigenetic modifications, and change
