Quantifying defects in graphene via Raman spectroscopy at different excitation energies.
LG Cançado, A Jorio, EH Martins Ferreira, F Stavale, CA Achete, RB Capaz, MVO Moutinho, A Lombardo, TS Kulmala, AC Ferrari
Nov 29, 2018
We present a Raman study of Ar(+)-bombarded graphene samples with increasing ion doses. This allows us to have a controlled, increasing, amount of defects. We find that the ratio between the D and G peak intensities, for a given...
Effects of noise on integration of acoustic and electric hearing within and across ears
In bimodal listening, cochlear implant (CI) users combine electric hearing (EH) in one ear and acoustic hearing (AH) in the other ear. In electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS), CI users combine EH and AH in the same ear. In quiet...

In-depth immunophenotyping data of IL-6R on the human peripheral regulatory T cell (Treg) compartment
RC Ferreira, DB Rainbow, A Rubio García, ML Pekalski, L Porter, JJ Oliveira, F Waldron-Lynch, LS Wicker, JA Todd
Jul 04, 2017
We provide in this paper a detailed characterization of the human peripheral CD4$^+$ CD127$^{low}$CD25$^+$ regulatory T cell (Treg) compartment, with a particular emphasis in defining the population expressing higher levels of...

Data Mining of MR Technical Parameters
Adriana Murraças, Paula Martins, Carlos Ferreira, Tiago Godinho, Augusto Ferreira da Silva
Jan 01, 2021
Exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy during a magnetic resonance imaging exam is a safety concern related to biological thermal effects. Estimation of the specific absorption rate (SAR) is done by manufacturer scanner...

Enhancing Network Lifetime of Duty Cycle-Based WSN With Mobile Sink Using Ambient Energy Harvesting
In order to guarantee a successful data collection process in wireless sensor networks with mobile sinks (WSN-MS), two primary objectives must be reached: 1) enabling the mobile sink to retrieve the maximum amount of data and 2)...

WNK1--a serine/threonine kinase involved in electrolyte homeostasis and blood pressure (BP) control--is an excellent candidate gene for essential hypertension (EH). We and others have previously reported association between WNK1...
Regional optimum frequency analysis of resting-state fMRI data for early detection of Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers
Gaurav Garg, Girijesh Prasad, Lalit Grag, Makoto Miyakoshi, Toshiharu Nakai, Damien Coyle
Dec 01, 2022
The blood-oxygen label dependent (BOLD) signal obtained from functional magnetic resonance images (fMRI) varies significantly among populations. Yet, there is some agreement among researchers over the pace of the blood flow...
The Transformation of the Lives of Others
EH Wickerson
May 29, 2017
This article reads von Donnersmarck’s film $\textbf{Das Leben der Anderen}$ in the light of Kafka’s story $\textbf{Die Verwandlung}$, suggesting that the works bear a striking and as yet unnoticed similarity on the level of...
The ubiquitin family meets the Fanconi anemia proteins.
Fanconi anaemia (FA) is a hereditary disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, developmental defects, predisposition to cancer and chromosomal abnormalities. FA is caused by biallelic mutations that inactivate genes...

Sphere-sphere intersection for investment portfolio diversification - A new data-driven cluster analysis.
Michel Ferreira Cardia Haddad
Jan 29, 2020
Aiming at supporting the process of investment portfolio diversification by using a data-driven approach, the present methodological paper proposes a new cluster analysis, which compares publicly traded companies, mainly in...
Bayesian computing with INLA
The INLA approach for approximate Bayesian inference for latent Gaussian models has been shown to give fast and accurate estimates of posterior marginals and also to be a valuable tool in practice via the R-package R-INLA. New...
Applying optimal control theory to complex epidemiological models to inform real-world disease management.
Mathematical models provide a rational basis to inform how, where and when to control disease. Assuming an accurate spatially explicit simulation model can be fitted to spread data, it is straightforward to use it to test the...
Mind the Gap
The way organelles are viewed by cell biologists is quickly changing. For many years, these cellular entities were thought to be unique and singular structures that performed specific roles. However, in recent decades...
