Macroautophagy (herein referred to as autophagy) is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism of adaptation to adverse microenvironmental conditions, including limited nutrient supplies. Several sensors interacting with the autophagic machinery have evolved to detect fluctuations in key metabolic parameters. The signal transduction cascades operating downstream of these sensors are highly interconn...

We present a strategy that combines color and depth images to detect people in indoor environments. Similarity of image appearance and closeness in 3D position over time yield weights on the edges of a directed graph that we partition greedily into tracklets, sequences of chronologically ordered observations with high edge weights. Each tracklet is assigned the highest score that a Histograms-o...

Located within the Beni Fouda intramontane basin, Oued Boucherit area (Guelta Zerga, North East Algeria) hosts a unique succession of archaeological and palaeontological deposits spanning from late Pliocene to Early Pleistocene. While recent work by Sahnouni et al., (2018) mostly focused on two Oldowan levels AB-Lw AB-Up, we present here an updated overview entire sequence, resulting long-term ...

UNR Sim is a decimal based Von Neumann architecture computing device simulator. Chronologically precedent simulators did not include factors we considered necessary or desirable, each in and of itself. Actualized by these inadvertent omissions, we decided to integrate all the desirable behaviors instantiated in these simulators while either neutralizing or negating their undesirable aspects. Th...

In order to define normal values for ear length and position in the newborn infant, 198 (87 term and 111 preterm) infants were examined. In every case gestational age was determined chronologically and clinically. Ear length was measured from the superior to the inferior aspects of the ear. Using a horizontal line passing through the inner canthi of the eyes the portion of the ear above this li...

Incubation of human platelets in plasma containing a suspension of latex particles for 1-90 min resulted in progressive accumulation of particles in the open-channel system, followed by localization of latex in electron-opaque vacuoles. After 60 min, acid phosphatase was localized within latex-containing vacuoles. The periodate-alkaline-bismuth reaction intensely stained external membranes and ...

The term "elderly" in the cardiac surgical experience refers to patients chronologically aged 2:70 years. Chronologic age is less important than physiologic age; in the physiologically aged patient, techniques used in most surgical procedures are likely to be attended by a markedly increased risk of morbidity and mortality (I). There are four aspects involved in a decision to perform a cardiac ...

Advances in burn management over the past 2 decades have resulted in improved survival and reduced morbidity. The treatment of a single patient following a 90% total body surface area injury illustrates the intensity of labour and coordinated hospital care required for such catastrophically injured patients. Data were extracted from the medical records and from personal recollections of the ind...

This paper will present how weblogs, or web-based, chronologically-ordered, content management system, can be used as part of computer science classes. The experience consisted in having the class professor use a weblog for class-related topics, as well as anything mentioned in class that needed the complement of a hyperlink, and giving students the possibility of having their own weblogs, whic...

In this work we propose a novel representation learning model which computes semantic representations for tweets accurately. Our model systematically exploits the chronologically adjacent tweets (‘context’) from users’ Twitter timelines for this task. Further, we make our model user-aware so that it can do well in modeling the target tweet by exploiting the rich knowledge about the user such as...
