BackgroundUremic cardiomyopathy (UC), the main cause of death in progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD), is characterized by diastolic dysfunction.Intraventricular pressure gradients (IVPG) derived from color m-mode echocardiography (CMME) and two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) were established as novel echocardiographic ap
Msuite2: All-in-one DNA methylation data analysis toolkit with enhanced usability and performance
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic regulator that plays crucial roles in various biological processes.Recent developments in experimental approaches and dramatic expansion of sequencing capacities have imposed new challenges in the analysis of large-scale, cross-species DNA methylation data.Hence, user-friendly toolkits with high usability
DeepSpoofNet: a framework for securing UAVs against GPS spoofing attacks
Uncrewed Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are frequently utilized in several domains such as transportation, distribution, monitoring, and aviation.A significant security vulnerability is the Global Positioning System (GPS) Spoofing attack, wherein the assailant deceives the GPS receiver by transmitting copyright signals, thereby gaining control of the UAV.T
Magnetic extraction of calcium oxalate crystals with iron oxide nanoparticles
Residual fragments can remain after kidney stone extraction which may necessitate another intervention.Magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) can be applied due to their properties of being able to bind to residual fragments and to be extracted by an external magnetic field.Calcium oxalate crystals and magnetic nanoparticles have been synthesized, characteri
