Vulnerability modeling, assessment, and improvement in urban metro systems: a probabilistic system dynamics approach by Chen, Hongyu, Chen, Bin, Zhang, Limao, Li, Hong Xian

“…The urban metro system is a complex system that is vulnerable to various kinds of hazards and subjected to dynamics, where errors in any part are very likely to cause system failures and accidents. A better understanding of evolutional dynamics of the system vulnerability over time enables to ensure the safety and security in its operation and provide guidance for long-term operation and maintenance for the metro system. …”

Characterization and gene expression analysis of the cir multi-gene family of plasmodium chabaudi chabaudi (AS) by Lawton, Jennifer, Brugat, Thibaut, Yan, Yam Xue, Reid, Adam James, Böhme, Ulrike, Otto, Thomas Dan, Pain, Arnab, Jackson, Andrew, Berriman, Matthew, Cunningham, Deirdre, Preiser, Peter Rainer, Langhorne, Jean

“…Conclusions: In conclusion, the large number of cir genes and their expression throughout the intraerythrocytic cycle of development indicates that CIR proteins are likely to be important for parasite survival. In particular, the detection of dominant cir transcripts at the peak of P. chabaudi infection supports the idea that CIR proteins are expressed, and could perform important functions in the biology of this parasite. …”

The relationship between leisure time physical activity patterns, Alzheimer’s disease markers and cognition by James, S, Sudre, CH, Barnes, J, Cash, DM, Chiou, Y, Coath, W, Keshavan, A, Lu, K, Malone, I, Murray-Smith, H, Nicholas, JM, Orini, M, Parker, T, Almeida-Meza, P, Fox, NC, Richards, M, Schott, JM

“…Engagement in leisure time physical activity in the life course is associated with better cognitive functioning at age 70, even in those with early markers of Alzheimer’s disease. If causal, this is likely via multiple pathways, potentially through the preservation of hippocampal volume, as well as via cognitive resilience pathways delaying cognitive manifestations of early markers of Alzheimer’s disease, particularly in women. …”
