Software for objective comparison of vocal acoustic features over weeks of audio recording: KLFromRecordingDays
(2017-10-09)KLFromRecordingDays allows measurement of Kullback–Leibler (KL) distances between 2D probability distributions of vocal acoustic features. Greater KL distance measures reflect increased phonological divergence across the ... -

Solutions of a Class of Multiplicatively Advanced Differential Equations II: Fourier Transforms
(2022-07-07)For a wide class of solutions to multiplicatively advanced differential equations (MADEs), a comprehensive set of relations is established between their Fourier transforms and Jacobi theta functions. In demonstrating this ... -
Sorbus alnifolia protects dopaminergic neurodegeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans
(2017-01)Context: The twigs of Sorbus alnifolia (Sieb. et Zucc.) K. Koch (Rosaceae) have been used to treat neuro- logical disorders as a traditional medicine in Korea. However, there are limited data describing the efficacy of S. ... -
Soundscape maps of soniferous fishes observed from a mobile glider
(2022-03-10)Most passive acoustic studies of the soundscape rely on fixed recorders, which provide good temporal resolution of variation in the soundscape, but poor spatial coverage. In contrast, a mobile recording device can show ... -
Spargel/dPGC-1 is essential for oogenesis and nutrient-mediated ovarian growth in Drosophila
(2019-06-25)Dietary proteins are crucial for oogenesis. The Target of Rapamycin (TOR) is a major nutrient sensor controlling organismal growth and fertility, but the downstream effectors of TOR signaling remain largely uncharacterized. ... -
A Sparsity-Based InSAR Phase Denoising Algorithm Using Nonlocal Wavelet Shrinkage
(2016-10-10)An interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) phase denoising algorithm using the local sparsity of wavelet coefficients and nonlocal similarity of grouped blocks was developed. From the Bayesian perspective, the ... -
Spatial and temporal translational control of germ cell mRNAs mediated by the eIF4E isoform IFE-1
(2015)Regulated mRNA translation is vital for germ cells to produce new proteins in the spatial and temporal patterns that drive gamete development. Translational control involves the de-repression of stored mRNAs and their ... -
Specialized High‐Protein Oral Nutrition Supplement Improves Home Nutrient Intake of Malnourished Older Adults Without Decreasing Usual Food Intake
(2018-11-22)Background: Reduced nutrient intake is common in patients after hospitalization, contributing to increased risk for readmissionand mortality. Oral nutrition supplements can improve nutrition status and clinical outcomes, ... -
Species-Specific Conservation of Linear Antigenic Sites on Vaccinia Virus A27 Protein Homologs of Orthopoxviruses
(2019-05-29)The vaccinia virus (VACV) A27 protein and its homologs, which are found in a large number of members of the genus Orthopoxvirus (OPXV), are targets of viral neutralization by host antibodies. We have mapped six binding ... -
Spindle-cell sarcoma of the heart: A rare cause for a cardiac mass
(2012)Primary cardiac tumors are rare and are usually diagnosed at an advanced stage due to nonspecific symptoms. We report a 46-year-old female who presented to our institution with shortness of breath and was diagnosed with a ... -
Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (Syk) Regulates Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) T Cell Signaling
(2013-08-27)Engagement of the CD3/T cell receptor complex in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) T cells involves Syk rather than the zeta-associated protein. Because Syk is being considered as a therapeutic target we asked whether Syk ... -
Spontaneous bile duct perforation in a neonate
(2018-08-14)We present a case of spontaneous biliary perforation (SBP) in a previously healthy 3-week-old boy with wor- sening scleral icterus, abdominal distension, and acholic stools. Abdominal ultrasound demonstrated moderate ascites ... -
Spontaneous weight change during chronic hepatitis C treatment: Association with virologic response rates
(2013-10-31)We examined weight changes during chronic hepatitis C (CHC) therapy and association with virologic response. Weight changes were compared between subjects achieving rapid, early, and sustained virologic response rates (RVR, ... -
Stable optical trapping and sensitive characterization of nanostructures using standing- wave Raman tweezers
(2017-02-17)Optical manipulation and label-free characterization of nanoscale structures open up new possibilities for assembly and control of nanodevices and biomolecules. Optical tweezers integrated with Raman spectroscopy allows ... -
Stair falls: Caregiver's "missed step" as a source of childhood fractures
(2014-01-28)Background The purpose of this study was to describe fractures sustained by children and to analyze the associated costs when a caretaker falls down stairs while holding a child. Materials and methods Between 2004 and ... -
STAKEHOLDERS' ATTITUDES TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN COASTAL COMMUNITIES
(East Carolina University, 2011)As North Carolina's coastal communities face challenges in maintaining the quality of the natural and cultural resources that drive their tourism economy the need for sustainable actions in tourism development is made ... -
The state of the science of nurse work environments in the United States: A systematic review
(2018-04-16)A healthy nurse work environment is a workplace that is safe, empowering, and satisfying. Many research studies were conducted on nurse work environments in the last decade; however, it lacks an overview of these research ... -
Stem cell models of human synapse development and degeneration
(2018-11-26)Many brain disorders exhibit altered synapse formation in development or syn- apse loss with age. To understand the complexities of human synapse development and degeneration, scientists now engineer neurons and brain ...
