Abdominal fat depots associated with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome risk factors in black African young adults
Abstract
Background
Individuals of black African ethnicity tend to have less visceral adipose tissue (VAT) but more subcutaneous-abdominal adipose tissue (SCAT) than white...

Danyal Z Khan, Ivo S Muskens, Rania A Mekary, Amir H Zamanipoor Najafabadi, Adel E Helmy, Robert Reisch, Marike LD Broekman, Hani J Marcus
Oct 29, 2020
INTRODUCTION: The gold-standard treatment for symptomatic anterior skull base meningiomas is surgical resection. The endoscope-assisted supraorbital "keyhole" approach (eSKA) is a promising technique for surgical resection of...

Rapid generation of ecologically relevant behavioral novelty in experimental cichlid hybrids.
Anna F Feller, Oliver M Selz, Matthew D McGee, Joana I Meier, Salome Mwaiko, Ole Seehausen
Oct 28, 2020
The East African cichlid radiations are characterized by repeated and rapid diversification into many distinct species with different ecological specializations and by a history of hybridization events between nonsister species....
Genomics of Rapid Incipient Speciation in Sympatric Threespine Stickleback.
David A Marques, Kay Lucek, Joana I Meier, Salome Mwaiko, Catherine E Wagner, Laurent Excoffier, Ole Seehausen

Ecological speciation is the process by which reproductively isolated populations emerge as a consequence of divergent natural or ecologically-mediated sexual selection. Most genomic studies of ecological speciation have...
The tour de France
From its initial inception in 1903 as a race premised on a publicity stunt to sell newspapers, the Tour de France had grown and evolved over time to become one of the most difficult and heralded sporting events in the world....

Simplexity to Improve Human-Machine Interaction in 3D Virtual Reality
The purpose of this paper is to present the use of the notion of simplexity to facilitate the design of virtual and immersive environments. Through ahistorical and argumentative excursus, the authors specify the motivations that...

Asymptotic behaviour of a pile-up of infinite walls of edge dislocations
We consider a system of parallel straight edge dislocations and we analyse its asymptotic behaviour in the limit of many dislocations. The dislocations are represented by points in a plane, and they are arranged in vertical...
Predictors of Self-Reported Neglect-like Symptoms and Involuntary Movements in Complex Regional Pain Syndrome Compared to Other Chronic Limb Pain Conditions
OBJECTIVE: In addition to pain, people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) often report inattention to and disengagement from their affected limb (i.e., "neglect-like symptoms"). Understanding how these symptoms relate...
Asymptotic behaviour of a pile-up of infinite walls of edge dislocations
We consider a system of parallel straight edge dislocations and we analyse its asymptotic behaviour in the limit of many dislocations. The dislocations are represented by points in a plane, and they are arranged in vertical...
Geometric rigidity for incompatible fields and an application to strain-gradient plasticity
In this paper, we show that a strain-gradient plasticity
model arises as the Γ -limit of a nonlinear semi-discrete dislocation
energy. We restrict our analysis to the case of plane elasticity,
so that edge...

Semiconductor Photoelectroanalysis and Photobioelectroanalysis
Electrochemical sensor signal output, when recorded as a current, is primarily related to the target analyte concentration, but often also related to additional experimental or control parameters. When employing photo-active...
Genomic ancestry and education level independently influence abdominal fat distributions in a Brazilian admixed population.
Giovanny Vinícius Araújo de França, Emanuella De Lucia Rolfe, Bernardo Lessa Horta, Denise Petrucci Gigante, John S Yudkin, Ken K Ong, Cesar Gomes Victora
Jan 16, 2018
We aimed to identify the independent associations of genomic ancestry and education level with abdominal fat distributions in the 1982 Pelotas birth cohort study, Brazil. In 2,890 participants (1,409 men and 1,481 women)...
Movement of transposable elements contributes to cichlid diversity.

African cichlid fishes are a prime model for studying speciation mechanisms. Despite the development of extensive genomic resources, it has been difficult to determine which sources of genetic variation are responsible for...
Sieyès versus Bicameralism
Abstract Bicameralism is traditionally considered necessary to the principle of the limitation of power and, as such, a key feature of the liberal constitutional state. Yet the history of the...
