Living with fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva: radiological images of a patient with extensive heterotopic ossification by Mohammed Mostafa Kotb, Omar, Usama Farghaly, Kaliya-Perumal, Arun-Kumar

“…Radiographic evaluation with X-rays and CT scans revealed scoliosis and total fusion of almost all levels of the spine, with only a few disc spaces spared. A large mass of heterotopic bone was observed, corresponding to the location of the paraspinal muscles in the lumbar region, branching upwards and fusing with the scapulae on both sides. …”

Development of heating and cooling materials for sports apparel by Thum, Kai Yang

“…Efficiency of the dual-layer pairing is calculated by the difference in temperature of the skin between heating and cooling mode. It was found that the MICA White-Carbon Black and the MICA Red-Carbon Black pairing have the best efficiency in terms of its dual-layer properties by using various test such as the Skin Test as well as the Lamp Test which will be further explained in Section 4 of Experimental Methods. …”

Interleukin-26 (IL-26) is a novel anti-microbial peptide produced by T cells in response to staphylococcal enterotoxin by Woetmann, Anders, Alhede, Morten, Dabelsteen, Sally, Bjarnsholt, Thomas, Rybtke, Morten, Nastasi, Claudia, Krejsgaard, Thorbjørn, Andersen, Mads Hald, Bonefeld, Charlotte M., Geisler, Carsten, Givskov, Michael, Odum, Niels

“…Here we show that (i) skin T cells in chronic wounds infected with S. aureus express interleukin-26 (IL-26) in situ, (ii) staphylococcal enterotoxins (SE) trigger IL-26 expression in T cell lines and primary skin T cells, and (iii) IL-26 triggers death and inhibits biofilm formation and growth of S. aureus. …”

Fatigue investigations on steel pipeline containing 3D coplanar and non-coplanar cracks by Xiao, Zhongmin, Zhang, Wengang, Zhang, Yanmei, Fan, Mu

“…Fluctuated loadings from currents, waves and sea ground motions are observed on offshore steel pipelines, and they will result in small cracks to propagate continuously and cause unexpected damage to offshore/geotechnical infrastructures. In spite of the availability of efficient techniques and high-power computers for solving crack problems, investigations on the fatigue life of offshore pipelines with 3D interacting cracks are still rarely found in open literature. …”

Accumulated decoupled learning with gradient staleness mitigation for convolutional neural networks by Zhuang, Huiping, Weng, Zhenyu, Luo, Fulin, Toh, Kar-Ann, Li, Haizhou, Lin, Zhiping

“…As a new learning scheme, the proposed ADL is theoretically shown to converge to critical points in spite of its asynchronism. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet datasets are conducted, demonstrating that ADL gives promising generalization results while the state-of-theart methods experience reduced generalization and divergence. …”

Egg development, hatching, and larval development of Marble Goby Oxyeleotris marmoratus under artificial rearing conditions by Senoo, Shigeharu, Kaneko, Masaharu, Cheah, Sin Hock, Ang, Kok Jee

“…All embryonic heads were located at the basal part of the egg and this was taken as normal egg development for O. marmoratus. In spite of their well-developed eyes and mouths, and the fact that they exhibited the active S-posture, the larvae did not feed on artificial powdered feed or Brachionus spp. for 4--6 days (d) AF, and the mortality before the feeding of Brachionus spp. was much higher than that of the later stages. …”
