Background Cancer progression can be tracked by gene expression changes that occur throughout early-stage to advanced-stage cancer development.The accumulated genetic changes can be detected when gene expression levels in advanced-stage are less variable but show high variability in early-stage.Normalizing advanced-stage expression samples with ear
Abstract Environmental data with a high spatio-temporal resolution is vital in informing actions toward tackling urban sustainability challenges.Yet, access to hyperlocal environmental data sources is limited due to the lack of monitoring infrastructure, consistent data quality, and data availability to the public.This paper reports environmental d
Intestinal pseudo-obstruction is a rare disorder that affects gastrointestinal propulsion.It may be secondary to several pathological conditions or it may develop without a known cause.A 1.2 year-old intact Pug bitch had a history of vomiting and constipation, which were followed by diarrhea and distended abdomen.Hypomotility and dilation of the sm
Invasive exotic plant species are often expected to benefit exclusively from legacy effects of their litter inputs on soil processes and nutrient availability.However, there are relatively few experimental tests determining how litter of exotic plants affects their own growth conditions compared to congeneric native plant species.Here, we test how
Reliable pose information is essential for many applications, such as for navigation or surveying tasks.Though GNSS is a well-established technique to retrieve that information, it often fails in urban environments due to signal occlusion or multi-path effects.In addition, GNSS might be subject to jamming or spoofing, which requires an alternative,
