The FOXL2 forkhead transcription factor is expressed in ovarian granulosa cells, and mutated FOXL2 causes the blepharophimosis, ptosis and epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES) and predisposes to premature ovarian failure.Inactivation of Foxl2 in mice demonstrated its indispensability for female gonadal sex determination and sword ovary development a
Composition of nitrogen in urban residential stormwater runoff: Concentrations, loads, and source characterization of nitrate and organic nitrogen.
Stormwater runoff is a leading cause of nitrogen (N) transport to water bodies and hence one means of water quality deterioration.Stormwater runoff was monitored in an urban residential catchment (drainage area: 3.89 hectares) in Florida, United States to investigate the concentrations, forms, and sources of N.Runoff samples were collected over 22
Genomic Characterization of Escherichia coli O8 Strains Producing Shiga Toxin 2l Subtype
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) can cause diseases ranging from mild diarrhea to fatal extra-intestinal hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS).Shiga toxin (Stx) is the key virulence factor in STEC, two Stx types (Stx1 and Stx2) and several subtypes varying in sequences, toxicity, and host specificity have been identified.Stx2l is a newly-des
Geo-Temporal Selective Approach for Dynamic Depth Estimation in Outdoor Object Detection and Distance Measurement
Accurate depth information is crucial for various computer vision applications such as augmented reality, 3D modeling, and autonomous Freezer Thermometers vehicles.Recent advancements have significantly improved both supervised and self-supervised methods for depth estimation.However, most current approaches primarily focus on monocular depth estim
Improving Localization Accuracy of Neural Sources by Pre-processing: Demonstration With Infant MEG Data
We discuss specific challenges and solutions in infant MEG, which is one of the most technically challenging CALENDULA areas of MEG studies.Our results can be generalized to a variety of challenging scenarios for MEG data acquisition, including clinical settings.We cover a wide range of steps in pre-processing, including movement compensation, supp
