It is shown that bacteria use yeast as a niche for survival in stressful conditions, therefore yeasts may act as temporary or permanent bacterial reservoirs.Endobacteria colonise the fungal vacuole of various osmotolerant yeasts which survive and multiply in sugar-rich sources such as plant nectars.Nectar-associated yeasts are present even in the d
Congenital Chagas disease, a neglected tropical disease, endemic in Latin America, is associated with premature labor and miscarriage.During vertical transmission the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi (T.cruzi) crosses the placental barrier.However, the exact mechanism of the placental infection remains unclear.We review the terracotta disposable napkins
This study introduces a novel controller based on a Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm for real-time adaptation of the stimulation pattern during FES-cycling.Core to our approach is the introduction of an RL agent that interacts with the cycling environment and learns through trial and error how to modulate the electrical charge applied to the s
An open-ended coaxial probe separated from the investigated medium by a thin non-conducting layer (foil) is proposed for making dielectric permittivity measurements within the RF range.The method was originally vaping walrus applied by the authors for intraoperative tissue assessment, but it could also be suitable for food control (requirement of p
Gait phase detection plays a significant role in human motion intention recognition in lower limb exoskeleton.This study proposes a LSTM-ResMLP-LightGBM method for real-time gait phase detection in multigrade loads in outdoor activity.LSTM is exploited to extract the underlying meaning and construct a lengthy time relationship in multiple features.
