Age-related bone loss is associated with FGF21 but not IGFBP1 in healthy adults by Lee, Shuen Yee, Fam, Kai Deng, Chia, Kar Ling, Yap, Margaret M. C., Goh, Jorming, Yeo, Kwee Poo, Yap, Eric Peng Huat, Chotirmall, Sanjay Haresh, Lim, Chin Leong

“…The IGFBP1 concentration was not correlated with BMD at the hip or spine (all P > 0.05). In humans, FGF21 might be involved in the age-associated decline in BMD, especially at the spine, through increased bone turnover. …”

A meta-analysis of functional neuroimaging studies of dyslexia in alphabetic words and chinese characters. by Kwok, Fu Yu.

“…Results from the Chinese language meta-analysis study replicates the results from previous empirical studies showing low activation primarily in areas such as the left middle frontal gyrus and the right middle occipital gyrus (Liu et al., 2012; Siok, Niu, Jin, Perfetti, & Tan, 2008; Siok, Perfetti, Jin, & Tan, 2004; Siok, Spink, Jin & Tan, 2009; Yang, 2005). In addition, functional neuroimaging single studies examining the effect of dyslexia in both alphabetical languages and Chinese language have shown that there are differences in the brain activations between these languages (Paulesu et al., 2001; Richlan et al., 2010; Siok et al., 2004). …”

Speech enhancement using auditory-based spectral amplitude estimators by Sekar Sathiya Narayanan.

“…The original speech signal is subjected to three types of noises, namely, white noise, pink noise and cockpit noise. The proposed estimator is applied to the noisy speech signal to obtain the enhanced speech signal and the objective measures of speech quality such as the segmental SNR (SNRseg) and the log-likelihood-ratio (LLR) are obtained. …”
