Hypertension among people living with human immunodeficiency virus receiving care at referral hospitals of Northwest Ethiopia: A cross-sectional study

Plos.org 
En

by Alemu Gebrie

Introduction

Hypertension among HIV positive patients in low- and middle-income countries has got little attention and data on the problem is limited in Ethiopia. Hence, this study aims to determine the magnitude of hypertension and its associated factors among HIV-positive patients receiving care at referral hospitals of Northwest Ethiopia

Materials and methods

A cross-sectional study design was conducted to determine the burden of hypertension in patients living... Читать дальше...

The impact of temporal fine structure and signal envelope on auditory motion perception

by Michaela Warnecke, Z. Ellen Peng, Ruth Y. Litovsky

The majority of psychoacoustic research investigating sound localization has utilized stationary sources, yet most naturally occurring sounds are in motion, either because the sound source itself moves, or the listener does. In normal hearing (NH) listeners, previous research showed the extent to which sound duration and velocity impact the ability of listeners to detect sound movement. By contrast, little is known about how listeners... Читать дальше...

Expectations vs. actual behavior of a social robot: An experimental investigation of the effects of a social robot’s interaction skill level and its expected future role on people’s evaluations

En

by Aike C. Horstmann, Nicole C. Krämer

Since social robots are increasingly entering areas of people’s personal lives, it is crucial to examine what affects people’s perceptions and evaluations of these robots. In this study, three potential influences are examined: 1) the robot’s level of interaction skills, 2) the robot’s expected future role as a helpful assistant or a threatening competitor, and 3) people’s individual background with regard to robots and technology in general. In an experimental... Читать дальше...

A new strategy for durable control of late blight in potato by a single soil application of an oxathiapiprolin mixture in early season

En

by Yigal Cohen, Avia E. Rubin

Root treatment with oxathiapiprolin, benthiavalicarb or their mixture Zorvec-Endavia [ZE (3+7, w/w)] was shown to provide prolonged systemic protection against foliar oomycete pathogens attacking cucumber, tomato and basil. Here we report that these fungicides can effectively protect potato plants against late blight when applied to the soil in which such potato plants are grown. In two field experiments, performed in 2019 and 2020, potato plants grown in 64... Читать дальше...



Duplex real-time PCR for sexing Schistosoma japonicum cercariae based on W chromosome-specific genes and its applications

by Shuai Liu, Xianyu Piao, Nan Hou, Pengfei Cai, Yu Ma, Qijun Chen

As a unique feature among otherwise hermaphroditic trematodes, Schistosoma species are gonochoric parasites whose sex is genetically determined (ZZ for males and ZW for females). However, schistosome larvae are morphologically identical, and sex can only be discriminated by molecular methods. Here, we integrated published Schistosoma. japonicum transcriptome and genome data to identify W chromosome-specific genes as sex biomarkers. Читать дальше...

Template-based mapping of dynamic motifs in tissue morphogenesis

Plos.org 
En

by Tomer Stern, Stanislav Y. Shvartsman, Eric F. Wieschaus

Tissue morphogenesis relies on repeated use of dynamic behaviors at the levels of intracellular structures, individual cells, and cell groups. Rapidly accumulating live imaging datasets make it increasingly important to formalize and automate the task of mapping recurrent dynamic behaviors (motifs), as it is done in speech recognition and other data mining applications. Here, we present a “template-based search” approach for accurate... Читать дальше...

Could Chinese Missiles Really Wipe Out Taiwan's Air Force?

Security, Asia

This long-standing claim needs a closer look.

Key Point: Taiwan's air force relies on bases that could possibly be hit by a surprise attack. Could Taiwan find a way to counter this threat?

After dithering for weeks, on August 15 the Trump administration informed Congress it would authorize the sale of sixty-six newly-manufactured F-16V fighters to Taiwan for $8 billion—a move which is certain to infuriate Beijing, which considers Taiwan a renegade province. Читать дальше...
