Alternatives to Traditional Per-Oral Endoscopy for Screening.
Barrett's esophagus (BE) predisposes patients to esophageal adenocarcinoma. 3 to 6% of individuals with gastro-esophageal reflux disease are estimated to have BE but only 20 to 25% of BE patients are currently diagnosed. The...

Delicate seafloor landforms reveal past Antarctic grounding-line retreat of kilometers per year.
A suite of grounding-line landforms on the Antarctic seafloor, imaged at submeter horizontal resolution from an autonomous underwater vehicle, enables calculation of ice sheet retreat rates from a complex of grounding-zone...

The Municipality's Role in a Smart Internet of Things Ecosystem
This article explores how municipalities plan and utilize Internet of Things (IoT) for smart city development, as well as how they collaborate with actors in the IoT-ecosystem. To do so, in-depth interviews and secondary...
Organomegaly in Mali before and after praziquantel treatment. A possible association with Schistosoma haematobium.
Continuous exposure to schistosome-infested water results in acute and chronic morbidity in all ages. We analysed occurence of organomegaly via ultrasonography and investigated a possible additive effect of dual-dose drug...

Intelligent Anti-Jamming Decision Algorithm of Bivariate Frequency Hopping Pattern Based on DQN With PER and Pareto
To improve the anti-jamming performance of frequency hopping system in complex electromagnetic environment, a Deep Q-Network algorithm with priority experience replay (PER) based on Pareto samples (PPER-DQN) is proposed, which...
Overexpression of the WAPO-A1 gene increases the number of spikelets per spike in bread wheat.
Two homoeologous QTLs for number of spikelets per spike (SPS) were mapped on chromosomes 7AL and 7BL using two wheat MAGIC populations. Sets of lines contrasting for the QTL on 7AL were developed which allowed for the validation...

Mammographic density change in a cohort of premenopausal women receiving tamoxifen for breast cancer prevention over 5 years
Abstract: Background: A decrease in breast density due to tamoxifen preventive therapy might indicate greater benefit from the drug. It is not known whether mammographic density continues to decline after 1 year of therapy, or...
