The perception of octave pitch affinity and harmonic fusion have a common origin.
Musicians say that the pitches of tones with a frequency ratio of 2:1 (one octave) have a distinctive affinity, even if the tones do not have common spectral components. It has been suggested, however, that this affinity...
Peer-to-peer energy trading in a microgrid leveraged by smart contracts
The current electricity networks were not initially designed for the high integration of variable generation technologies. They suffer significant losses due to the combustion of fossil fuels, the long-distance transmission, and...

Agree to Disagree
Fairness is commonly seen as a property of the global outcome of a system and assumes centralisation and complete knowledge. However, in real decentralised applications, agents only have partial observation capabilities. Under...
Checkpoint inhibition of origin firing prevents inappropriate replication outside of S-phase
Checkpoints maintain the order of cell cycle events during DNA damage or incomplete replication. How the checkpoint response is tailored to different phases of the cell cycle remains poorly understood. The S-phase checkpoint for...
Connectivity between countries established by landbirds and raptors migrating along the African-Eurasian flyway.

Structure-Guided Computational Approaches to Unravel Druggable Proteomic Landscape of Mycobacterium leprae
Sundeep Chaitanya Vedithi, Sony Malhotra, Marta Acebrón-García-de-Eulate, Modestas Matusevicius, Pedro Henrique Monteiro Torres, Tom L. Blundell
May 21, 2021
Leprosy, caused by Mycobacterium leprae (M. leprae), is treated with a multidrug regimen comprising Dapsone, Rifampicin, and Clofazimine. These drugs exhibit bacteriostatic, bactericidal and anti-inflammatory properties...
Adipose Tissue Epigenetic Profile in Obesity-Related Dysglycemia - A Systematic Review.
Sara Andrade, Tiago Morais, Ionel Sandovici, Alexandre L Seabra, Miguel Constância, Mariana P Monteiro
Aug 16, 2021
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a major risk factor for dysglycemic disorders, including type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, there is wide phenotypic variation in metabolic profiles. Tissue-specific epigenetic modifications could be...
Psychometric parameters of an abbreviated vengeance scale across two countries
Gabriel L.H. Coelho, Renan P. Monteiro, Paul H.P. Hanel, Valdiney V. Gouveia, Gregory Maio
Jan 01, 2018
We propose a short and ultrashort version of the Vengeance Scale (Stuckless & Goranson, 1992). Across three samples, good psychometric properties and convergent validity for the new scales were found. Study 1 found in a...
Asymptotic Weyl double copy
Abstract
A characteristic value formulation of the Weyl double copy leads to an asymptotic formulation. We find that the Weyl double copy holds...
Aggregation in economies with search frictions
We derive an aggregation result in economies with indivisible labor supply choices and frictional labor markets, obtaining a tractable model of gross worker flows in aggregate labor markets with search frictions. Our result...
Need for affect and attitudes toward drugs
Gabriel Lins de Holanda Coelho, Paul H. P. Hanel, Roosevelt Vilar, Renan P Monteiro, Valdiney V Gouveia, Gregory R Maio
Jan 01, 0001
Human values and affective traits were found to predict attitudes toward the use of different types of drugs (e.g., alcohol, marijuana, and other illegal drugs). In this study (N = 196, M age = 23.09), we aimed to...
Characterizing palliative care needs in people with or at risk of developing diabetic foot ulcers.
Liliane Mendonça, Bárbara Antunes, Joana Rigor, Daniela Martins-Mendes, Matilde Monteiro-Soares
Dec 22, 2022
AIMS: Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have a significant impact on a patient's quality of life and life expectancy, with mortality rates comparable with malignant diseases. However, there is a lack of data regarding palliative care...

Ingestive Behaviour Activities Based on Bioacoustic Signals in Grazing Cattle
This work focuses on the development of an autonomous, electronic platform based on bioacoustic techniques to monitor animal sounds related to ingestive activities and sub-activities in beef cattle. The authors have developed an...

Personality, dangerous driving, and involvement in accidents:
Renan P Monteiro, Gabriel Lins de Holanda Coelho, Paul H. P. Hanel, Carlos Eduardo Pimentel, Valdiney V Gouveia
Oct 01, 2018
The present study tested the role of various personality traits in explaining dangerous driving and involvement in accidents, using a contextual mediated model (N = 311). We initially found direct effects of personality traits...

Synaptic control of DNA methylation involves activity-dependent degradation of DNMT3A1 in the nucleus
Gonca Bayraktar, PingAn Yuanxiang, Alessandro D. Confettura, Guilherme M. Gomes, Syed A. Raza, Oliver Stork, Shoji Tajima, Isao Suetake, Anna Karpova, Ferah Yildirim, Michael R. Kreutz
Feb 09, 2021
Abstract: DNA methylation is a crucial epigenetic mark for activity-dependent gene expression in neurons. Very little is known about how synaptic signals impact promoter methylation in neuronal nuclei. In this study we show that...
