description: Previous researches revealed a copy number variation (CNV) region in the bovine fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13) gene. However, its effects remain unknown. This study detected the various copy number types in seven Chinese cattle breeds and analysed their population genetic characteristics and effects on growth traits and transcription levels. Copy number Loss was more frequent in Caoyuan Red cattle and Xianan cattle than in the other breeds. Association analysis between CNV and growth traits of Qinchuan indicated that the CNV was significantly related to chest depth, hip width and hucklebone width (P < 0.05). Additionally, the growth traits of individuals with copy number Loss were significantly inferior to those with copy number Gain or Median (P < 0.05). Besides, we found two splicing isoforms, AS1 and AS2, in FGF13 gene, which resulted from alternative 5′ splicing sites of intron 1. These isoforms showed varied expression levels in various tissues. Moreover, CNV was significantly and negatively associated with the mRNA expression of AS1 (r = −0.525, P < 0.05). The CNVs in bovine FGF13 gene negatively regulated growth traits and gene transcription. These observations provide new insights into bovine FGF13 gene, delivering potentially useful information for future Chinese cattle breeding programs.

Notes — Müller-Argoviensis (1860a) indicated the gathering Spruce 3345 in the prologue of A. pachypterum but did not cite in which herbarium the type would be deposited. Thus, we selected one of the most complete specimens from this collection as the lectotype of A. pachypterum (K barcode K000587715) (ICN article 9.3; Turland et al. 2018). Also, since the holotype of A. rhombeosignatum indicated by Markgraf (1971) from the herbarium Z is missing (R. Nyffeler, personal information), we selected the best-preserved specimen from the original material as the lectotype (K barcode K000587719) (ICN article 9.3; Turland et al. 2018).

description: Understanding the nature of potential instabilities is indispensable for the stabilization of power amplifiers. Pole-zero identification is one of the techniques that can be used to determine the stability of a design in large-signal operation. In this work, the possible presence of poles at the fundamental frequency linked to the long-term memory parameters of the transistor's model (self-heating and traps) is presented and discussed. The paper shows how their effect on the identified frequency responses around the fundamental frequency may compromise the stability analysis results and the assessment of stability margins. The low observability of the poles at the fundamental frequency highlights the importance of an accurate identification of real poles in low-frequency bands. A specific algorithm for the automatic frequency domain identification of non-resonant frequency responses and a procedure for detecting and reducing overfitting of real poles is proposed in this article. The benefits of the proposed methodology to correctly detect and analyze real poles at low frequencies is demonstrated through Monte-Carlo sensitivity analyses of two different amplifier designs.

title: Exploring User Experience and Motor Performance of Immersive Upper Limb Exergames in Tele-Rehabilitation
Creators: name: Sun, Wenxin
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2027

description: Tele-rehabilitation leverages technology to enable therapists to deliver rehabilitation services to patients from a distance. Within tele-rehabilitation systems, therapists and patients represent two key user groups, utilizing different platforms within a shared virtual environment. Immersive platforms, such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), have gained essential recognition in rehabilitation for their effectiveness in delivering exergames to patients. Besides, therapists often use 2D platforms, such as computers and tablets, to provide tele-rehabilitation guidance. However, current tele-rehabilitation systems present challenges for therapists in delivering effective remote guidance, as they primarily rely on video conferencing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new tele-rehabilitation framework that allows therapists to offer more effective guidance while enabling patients to engage in immersive exergames. This framework should prioritize improving user experience and motor performance, the two key elements of digital rehabilitation systems.
In order to achieve this goal, this project is divided into four systematic studies (Study A, Study B, Study C, and Study D). This PhD project begins by focusing on the use of 2D platforms for therapists (Study A), then moves on to explore hand-held AR upper limb exergames incorporating various interaction techniques (Study B). It proceeds to investigate the integration of a VR system with a physical rehabilitation table, along with various interaction techniques for upper limb exergames (Study C). The project culminates with an investigation of a tele-rehabilitation system that includes cross-platform guidance, enabling therapists on 2D platforms to provide remote guidance to patients on immersive platforms (Study D).
The findings of this PhD project offer new insights into the impact of 2D platforms on user experience and performance in virtual manipulation tasks. It also explores the influence of interaction techniques on user experience and motor performance in immersive upper limb exergames. In addition, it enriches the current literature by exploring the integration of immersive upper limb exergames with rehabilitation apparatus. This project proposes a novel tele-rehabilitation framework that supports real-time guidance within a shared virtual environment, bridging the physical gap between therapists and patients. It also offers essential design considerations of 2D platforms, immersive platforms, interaction techniques, and cross-platform guidance to assist designers and researchers in developing and refining future tele-rehabilitation systems.

description: This study investigates whether Bacillus pumilus TS1 improves growth performance and alleviates inflammatory damage in broilers and explored its feasibility as an antibiotic alternative. We divided 240 one-day-old AA308 white-finned broilers into five groups (con, LPS, TS1L + LPS, TS1M + LPS and TS1H + LPS). The TS1L + LPS, TS1M + LPS and TS1H + LPS groups were fed TS1 for 15 days by gavage. The LPS, TS1L + LPS, TS1M + LPS and TS1H + LPS groups were injected intraperitoneally with 1 mg/kg LPS for three days. We investigated the probiotic and anti-inflammatory activities by measuring body weight, sequencing the intestinal flora and examining the structure of tissues by using pathological stain, real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemical detection. TS1 could improve growth performance and intestinal flora composition, also reduced different organ damage and inflammatory cytokine expression in serum and organs. The mechanism may involve upregulating HSP60 and HSP70 expression, targeting and regulating Nrf2 and P38 MAPK and modulating NF-κB and HO-1 expression at the transcriptional level in different organs. B. pumilus TS1 alleviated Inflammatory injury caused by LPS and attenuated the inflammatory response in broilers, and these effects were achieved through MAPK and Nrf2 regulation of HSPs/HO-1 in different organs. The above results suggested broilers fed with TS1 could release the LPS caused organ damage, and the most suggested dosage was 1.4 × 108 CFU/mL.

Type material
Type material of P. gracilis could not be found at the ZMB or ZMH and is considered lost. However, the description and figures provided by Claus (1879) are sufficient to characterise this species. The type locality is the “Atlantic Ocean”. No specific locality is given by Claus (1879).
Type material of synonyms
Type material of P. edwardsi could not be located at the SMNH, ZMUC or in Uppsala and is considered lost. Bovallius (1889) regards it a synonym of P. gracilis, which is consistent with his original description.
Material examined (> 100 specimens)
Tasman Sea: 8 lots (SAMA), 8 specimens. North Atlantic: 1 lot (BMNH), 2 lots (CMN), 13 lots (USNM), 8 lots (ZMB), several lots (ZMUC), numerous specimens. South Atlantic: 3 lots (BMNH), 3 specimens. North Pacific: 2 lots (CMN), several lots (LACM), 13 lots (USNM), numerous specimens. Indian: 1 lots (BMNH), 1 specimen. Arabian Sea: 1 lot (BMNH), 3 specimens. Central Indo­Pacific: 3 lots (USNM), 5 specimens.
Diagnosis
Body length up to 17 mm, but usually 10 mm. Head slightly shorter than deep. Pereonites 1–2 much narrower than pereonite 3. Pereopods 5–7; anterior margin of ischium to propodus with several small robust setae. Pereopod 7 only as long as basis to carpus of P6. Pleonite 1; ventral margin of epimeral plate forms acute angle with body axis anteriorly.
Remarks
This species closely resembles its only congener, P. crassipes, and Hurley (1956) even suggested (but rejected) the idea that P. crassipes may be a later moult stage, because it tends to be larger and more robust than P. gracilis. However, the characters given in the key and the above diagnosis readily distinguish P. gracilis. According to Brusca (1981), the spination of pereopods 5–7 and the shape of pleonite 1 are particularly reliable characters.
This species has not been recorded with a gelatinous plankton associate but because of its similarity to P. crassipes, like that species, it is probably associated with siphonophores.
Distribution
This species is widely distributed in tropical and temperate regions, including the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea. It does not occur beyond the limits of the Subtropical Convergences (Vinogradov et al. 1982).

description: Satellite cells are an important cellular model for studying muscle growth and development and mammalian locomotion-related molecular mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the effects of voltage, pulse duration, and DNA dosage on horse skeletal muscle satellite cells’ electroporation transfection efficiency using the eukaryotic expression plasmid Td Tomato-C1 (5.5 kb) encoding the red fluorescent protein gene mainly based on fluorescence-positive cell rate and cell survival rate. By comparison of different voltages, pulse durations, and DNA doses, horse skeletal muscle satellite cells have nearly 80% transfection efficiency under the condition of voltage 120 V, DNA dosage 7 µg/ml, and pulse duration 30 ms. This optimized electroporation condition would facilitate the application of horse skeletal muscle satellite cells in genetic studies of muscle function and related diseases.

description: The present study was designed with the aim to study morphometric characterization as well as phylogeny and diversity of the local Surguli goat at their breeding tract district Kohat through mitochondrial DNA region, i.e., Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit One (CO1) gene. Morphometric data and blood samples were collected from thirty (30) pure goats. Morphometric analysis showed that sex had significant effect (p < 0.05) on body weight, body length, hearth girth and horn length while no significant effect (p > 0.05) was observed for other characteristics. The results also indicated that age had significant effect (p < 0.05) on height at rump, ear length, horn length and tail length while no significant effect (p > 0.05) was observed for other characteristics. The phylogenetic analysis through CO1 nucleotide sequences within nucleotide range 1–767 showed nine polymorphic sites segregating into eight haplotypes. The mean intraspecific diversity and mean interspecific diversity were calculated as 0.23 and 2.36%, respectively. Phylogenetic tree revealed that Capra Ibex and native Surguli goat have common ancestors. The morphometric and molecular results obtained from the present study can be exploited as a selection tool for breeding and overall improvement.

description: Previous studies have shown that subcutaneous adipose tissue is an important energy supply organ for chicks before and after birth, except yolk. So far, the significance of large deposits of subcutaneous adipose tissue in chicks is unclear. Therefore, this study takes the information interaction between adipocytes and macrophages as the starting point to explore whether adipocytes and macrophages could participate in adipose tissue fibrosis, angiogenesis, adaptive thermogenesis and other related functions in a specific metabolic environment. Under cold stress, the expression levels of genes related to lipidolysis, lipid transport and fatty acid oxidation in adipose tissue of chicks were significantly increased, but the expression levels of genes related to mitochondrial uncoupling were not significantly changed. Through Masson staining of adipose tissue of chicks under cold stress, it was found that the level of vascularization in adipose tissue of chicks was significantly increased. We found that the interaction between adipocyte and macrophage could participate in the angiogenesis related process of adipocytes in chicks through the HIF1A–VEGFA pathway. The analysis of lipid metabolism in subcutaneous adipose tissue of chicks from the perspective of cell heterogeneity will expand the understanding of lipid metabolism in chicks and provide a theoretical basis for chick rearing.

Notes —From the three gatherings mentioned in the protologue of A. ramiflorum by Müller-Argoviensis (1860a), Woodson (1951) cited Sellow 1651 as the type. However, since this gathering has more than one specimen, it was necessary to narrow Woodson’s (1951) typification by electing the material with a flower as the second-step lectotype of A. ramiflorum (MO barcode MO-016026) (ICN article 9.17; Turland et al. 2018).

description: Low-frequency resonances with low stability margins affect video bandwidth characteristics of power amplifiers. In this work, a non-connectorized measurement technique is presented to obtain the low-frequency critical poles at internal nodes of a hybrid amplifier. The experimental setup uses a high impedance probe connected to a vector network analyzer (VNA) to obtain a fully calibrated closed-loop frequency response that is identified to get the poles of the device at low frequency. Compared to previous connectorized solutions, the approach avoids the ad-hoc insertion of extra RF connectors to access the low-frequency dynamics of the amplifier. In addition, it simplifies the characterization at multiple internal nodes, which is worthwhile for an efficient detection and fixing of critical low frequency dynamics in multistage power amplifiers. The technique is first applied to dc steady state regimes and compared to the connectorized approach on a single stage amplifier. Next, it is applied to a three-stage amplifier to show its potential to detect the origin of the undesired dynamics and the most effective way to increase stability margin. Finally, the technique has been extended to the large-signal case to increase its usefulness for the design and diagnosis of high power amplifiers.

description: Introduction: Computational brain network modeling using The Virtual Brain (TVB) simulation platform acts synergistically with machine learning (ML) and multi-modal neuroimaging to reveal mechanisms and improve diagnostics in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods: We enhance large-scale whole-brain simulation in TVB with a cause-and-effect model linking local amyloid beta (A beta) positron emission tomography (PET) with altered excitability. We use PET and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data from 33 participants of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI3) combined with frequency compositions of TVB-simulated local field potentials (LFP) for ML classification. Results: The combination of empirical neuroimaging features and simulated LFPs significantly outperformed the classification accuracy of empirical data alone by about 10% (weighted F1-score empirical 64.34% vs. combined 74.28%). Informative features showed high biological plausibility regarding the AD-typical spatial distribution. Discussion: The cause-and-effect implementation of local hyperexcitation caused by A beta can improve the ML-driven classification of AD and demonstrates TVB's ability to decode information in empirical data using connectivity-based brain simulation.

≡ Macaglia refracta (Mart.) Kuntze, Rev. Gen. 2: 416. 1891.
Lectotype (designated here): — BRAZIL. Bahia: Inter oppidum Caiteté et praedium Maracás, s.d., C.F.P. von Martius s.n. (M [barcode M-0183484 image!]; isolectotypes: M [barcode M-0183483 image!, barcode M-0183485 image!, barcode M-0183486 image!, barcode M-0183487 image!, barcode M-0183488 image!]).
Notes —The diagnosis of A. refractum presented in “ Flora ” by Martius & Zuccarini (1824) was based on a single collection made by Martius himself, though the indication of the original material (Martius s.n.) was only made later by Martius (1824) in “ Nova Genera et Species Plantarum ”. Since this name was published without a holotype, we selected a specimen possessing a label including information about the collection place as the lectotype of A. refractum (M barcode M-0183484) (ICN article 9.3; Turland et al. 2018).
Woodson (1951) considered A. refractum as a synonym of A. pyrifolium Mart. & Zucc., but Duarte (1970) reestablished the former. We agree with Duarte’s concept because A. refractum presents flowers with triangular calyx lobes (vs. filiform), entirely tomentose ovary (vs. glabrous), and sparsely lenticellate follicles (vs. densely lenticellate) with conspicuous midrib (vs. inconspicuous).

description: Adipocyte play an important role in human health and meat quality by influencing the tenderness, flavor, and juiciness of mutton It has been shown that neuron-derived neurotrophic factor (NENF) is closely related to energy metabolism and adipocyte differentiation in bovine. However, the role of NENF in the goats remains unclear. The aim of this study was to detect the expression of NENF in goat subcutaneous and intramuscular adipocytes, temporal expression profiles of the NENF, and overexpressed NENF on the differentiation of different adipocytes. In this study, PCR amplification successfully cloned the goat NENF gene with a fragment length of 521 bp. In addition, the time point of highest expression of NENF differed between these two adipocytes differentiation processes. Overexpression of NENF in intramuscular and subcutaneous adipocytes promoted the expression levels of differentiation markers CEBPβ and SREBP, which in turn promoted the differentiation of intramuscular and subcutaneous adipocytes. This study will provide basic data for further study of the role of goats in goat adipocyte differentiation and for the final elucidation of its molecular mechanisms in regulating goat adipocyte deposition.

description: Recombinant protein expression is central to academic exploration as well as biotechnology’s advancement of human health, climate applications and the bioeconomy in general. However, not all proteins can be expressed in all organisms, and the field lacks a predictive model of soluble protein expression that could replace laborious experimental trial-and-error. This project aims to design and test an extensible experimental platform and standardized data ontology for collecting soluble recombinant protein expression data across organisms. The resulting dataset will be used in building increasingly generalizable predictive models of protein expression. 

In this document, we have roadmapped data collection techniques, designed experiments to assess their feasibility, and outlined a proof-of-concept pilot study that would be conducted prior to full-scale data acquisition. Here, we propose a plan of action that will establish the feasibility of gathering ML-ready soluble protein expression data in two organisms commonly-used in biomanufacturing and protein expression: Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris. Results of the feasibility study will inform decisions about the specifics of future pilot and full-scale data acquisition. We encourage the reader to reference our review, “Can protein expression be ‘solved’?” for details on soluble protein expression.

Once gathered, the dataset proposed here will adhere to FAIR principals, be publically available, and “living” – researchers can freely use it and it will continue to grow over time. Subsequent experiments (beyond those outlined in this proposal) will include examining more protein sequences and expression in different organisms (e.g. Bacillus subtilis, Aspergillus niger) to make the model more extensible.
