Features of possible regional ionospheric memory manifested themselves at low-latitudes under solar eclipse conditions.
Photogrammetry has become an essential tool in medical and research fields for generating high-fidelity 3D models from 2D images. However, optimizing the imaging and processing parameters remains a challenge, particularly for fresh brain specimens, where repeated imaging is not feasible. This study systematically evaluates the impact of various Metashape alignment settings on 3D reconstruction outcomes, analyzing 12,600 config...
Mitragynine reduces methamphetamine self-administration in rats without disrupting food-maintained respondingNARA Subscribed
Rationale Kratom ( Mitragyna speciosa ), a plant native to Southeast Asia, has become popular in the United States for its reported ability to treat substance use disorders (SUD). Mitragynine (MG) is the most abundant alkaloid found in kratom. Objectives The present studies evaluated whether MG decreases methamphetamine self-administration under both fixed-ratio (FR) and progressive-ratio (PR) schedules. In a separate cohort w...
The Asia region harbors exceptional chondrichthyan (shark, ray, and chimaera) diversity but faces intense fishing pressure. The Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRA) process provides a collaborative, evidence-based framework to identify critical habitats and inform spatial management. We assessed ISRAs across the Bay of Bengal, Southeast Asia, and the Northwest Pacific to characterize their extent, ecological significance, and...
Animals maintain close associations with diverse microbiota that inhabit their digestive tracts, and these associations can profoundly affect host physiology and fitness. Gut microbiome composition is shaped by both host traits and environmental factors, yet the relative importance of these forces remains unclear in many taxa, including squamate reptiles (lizards and snakes). To address this gap, we analysed the gut microbiome...
Apnea of prematurity (AOP) affects 50% of preterm infants causing intermittent hypoxia (IH), which can lead to long-term neurodevelopmental deficits. Cerebellar abnormalities have been observed in AOP but the relationship between vascular alterations and neural development remains unclear. This study investigates how IH affects cerebellar angiogenesis using a murine model of AOP. We developed an innovative 3D imaging workflow...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Most lake-carbonate-isotope records from the Maya Lowlands are based on picking fossil carbonate ostracods and gastropods, often using the species Pyrgophorus coronatus, and then combining individual specimens from a single core layer to provide a composite sample. What has been left relatively unexplored is the variability between individual shells and the impact this might have on the values obtained from such composite samp...
