MetaboAnalyst 5.0: narrowing the gap between raw spectra and functional insights
Abstract Since its first release over a decade ago, the MetaboAnalyst web-based platform has become widely used for comprehensive metabolomics data analysis and interpretation. ...
Report 9: Impact of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) to reduce COVID19 mortality and healthcare demand
The global impact of COVID-19 has been profound, and the public health threat it represents is the most serious seen in a respiratory virus since the 1918 H1N1 influenza pandemi...
Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder Among Children Aged 8 Years — Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network, 11 Sites, United States, 2016
These findings highlight the variability in the evaluation and detection of ASD across communities and between sociodemographic groups. Continued efforts are needed for early an...
Variations in the Earth's Orbit: Pacemaker of the Ice Ages
1) Three indices of global climate have been monitored in the record of the past 450,000 years in Southern Hemisphere ocean-floor sediments. 2) Over the frequency range 10 –4 to...
MetaboAnalyst 4.0: towards more transparent and integrative metabolomics analysis
We present a new update to MetaboAnalyst (version 4.0) for comprehensive metabolomic data analysis, interpretation, and integration with other omics data. Since the last major u...
Exchange and correlation in atoms, molecules, and solids by the spin-density-functional formalism
The aim of this paper is to advocate the usefulness of the spin-density-functional (SDF) formalism. The generalization of the Hohenberg-Kohn-Sham scheme to and SDF formalism is ...
Ultrathin Epitaxial Graphite: 2D Electron Gas Properties and a Route toward Graphene-based Nanoelectronics
We have produced ultrathin epitaxial graphite films which show remarkable 2D\nelectron gas (2DEG) behavior. The films, composed of typically 3 graphene\nsheets, were grown by th...
Investigation of multiplet splitting of Fe 2p XPS spectra and bonding in iron compounds
Abstract Ferrous (Fe 2+ ) and ferric (Fe 3+ ) compounds were investigated by XPS to determine the usefulness of calculated multiplet peaks to fit high‐resolution iron 2p 3/2 spe...
Thermal Transport Measurements of Individual Multiwalled Nanotubes
The thermal conductivity and thermoelectric power of a single carbon nanotube were measured using a microfabricated suspended device. The observed thermal conductivity is more t...
Shape modeling with front propagation: a level set approach
Shape modeling is an important constituent of computer vision as well as computer graphics research. Shape models aid the tasks of object representation and recognition. This pa...
Two Agency-Cost Explanations of Dividends
The economic literature about dividends usually assumes that managers are perfect agents of investors, and it seeks to determine why these agents pay dividends. Other literature...
