Proteomic and metabolomic analyses of the human adult myocardium reveal ventricle-specific regulation in end-stage cardiomyopathies by Hunter, B, Li, M, Parker, BL, Koay, YC, Harney, DJ, Pearson, E, Cao, J, Chen, GT, Guneratne, O, Smyth, GK, Larance, M, O’Sullivan, JF, Lal, S

“…Inter-ventricular significance of these metabolic pathways was then found to be diminished within end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy and ischaemic cardiomyopathy, while heart failure-associated pathways were increased in the left ventricle relative to the right within ischaemic cardiomyopathy, such as fluid sheer-stress, increased glutamine-glutamate ratio, and down-regulation of contractile proteins, indicating a left ventricular pathological bias.…”

Large scale paired antibody language models by Kenlay, H, Dreyer, FA, Kovaltsuk, A, Miketa, D, Pires, D, Deane, CM

“…With the advent of next-generation sequencing, billions of antibody sequences have been collected in recent years, though their application in the design of better therapeutics has been constrained by the sheer volume and complexity of the data. To address this challenge, we present IgBert and IgT5, the best performing antibody-specific language models developed to date which can consistently handle both paired and unpaired variable region sequences as input. …”

Quality over quantity: powering neuroimaging samples in psychiatry by Makowski, C, Nichols, TE, Dale, AM

“…In this review, we encourage this discourse to shift from a focus on sheer increases in sample size to more thoughtful choices surrounding experimental study designs. …”

Instrumentation optimisation for unicompartmental knee replacement by Arthur, LW

“…To minimise the risk of bearing fracture in the very long-term, surgeons should position the bearing close to the tibial wall, neutrally align the femoral component, and avoid using the thinnest Size 3 bearings in young patients.…”

Study on structural robustness to resist progressive collapse of vertical irregularly base-isolated structures by Bao, Chao, Ma, Xiaotong, Lv, Dahai, Wu, Qiaozhi, Doh, Shu Ing, Chin, Siew Choo, Shu, Hongbo, Nor Hayati, Abdul Hamid

“…It is suggested that reasonable protection measures should be set for the isolation bearing with greater vulnerability coefficient which may suffer from extreme accidents and the potential risk of isolation bearing with greater component importance coefficient is eliminated or reduced.…”
