Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Kill Bacteria
Neutrophils engulf and kill bacteria when their antimicrobial granules fuse with the phagosome. Here, we describe that, upon activation, neutrophils release granule proteins and...
<i>The Brain's Default Network</i>
Thirty years of brain imaging research has converged to define the brain's default network—a novel and only recently appreciated brain system that participates in internal modes...
Collinearity: a review of methods to deal with it and a simulation study evaluating their performance
Collinearity refers to the non independence of predictor variables, usually in a regression‐type analysis. It is a common feature of any descriptive ecological data set and can ...
Velvet: Algorithms for de novo short read assembly using de Bruijn graphs
We have developed a new set of algorithms, collectively called “Velvet,” to manipulate de Bruijn graphs for genomic sequence assembly. A de Bruijn graph is a compact representat...
Efficacy of the Theory of Planned Behaviour: A meta‐analytic review
The Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) has received considerable attention in the literature. The present study is a quantitative integration and review of that research. From a ...
YOLOv7: Trainable Bag-of-Freebies Sets New State-of-the-Art for Real-Time Object Detectors
Real-time object detection is one of the most important research topics in computer vision. As new approaches regarding architecture optimization and training optimization are c...
Decision making with the analytic hierarchy process
Decisions involve many intangibles that need to be traded off. To do that, they have to be measured along side tangibles whose measurements must also be evaluated as to, how wel...
The Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project.
Genome-wide association studies have identified thousands of loci for common diseases, but, for the majority of these, the mechanisms underlying disease susceptibility remain un...
The Costs and Benefits of Ownership: A Theory of Vertical and Lateral Integration
Our theory of costly contracts emphasizes the contractual rights can by of two types: specific rights and residual rights. When it is costly to list all specific rights over ass...
NIA‐AA Research Framework: Toward a biological definition of Alzheimer's disease
Abstract In 2011, the National Institute on Aging and Alzheimer's Association created separate diagnostic recommendations for the preclinical, mild cognitive impairment, and dem...
Focal Loss for Dense Object Detection
The highest accuracy object detectors to date are based on a two-stage approach popularized by R-CNN, where a classifier is applied to a sparse set of candidate object locations...
