Abstract Music has been debated as Innerspring Mattresses a positive factor for the health of elderly people.In a randomized study, the researchers compared an intervention based on percussion and musical improvisation with a choir activity.The objective was to investigate whether improvisation would influence the executive functioning and motor sk
Explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) detects wildfire occurrence in the Mediterranean countries of Southern Europe
Abstract The impacts and threats posed by wildfires are dramatically increasing due to climate change.In recent years, the wildfire community has attempted to estimate wildfire occurrence with machine learning models.However, to fully exploit the potential of these models, it is of paramount importance to make their predictions interpretable and in
A Protocol for Fabrication and on-Chip Cell Culture to Recreate PAH-Afflicted Pulmonary Artery on a Microfluidic Device
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare pulmonary vascular disease that affects people of all ethnic origins and age groups including newborns.In PAH, pulmonary arteries and arterioles undergo a series of pathological changes including remodeling of the entire pulmonary vasculatures and extracellular matrices, mis-localized growth of pulmon
Seeds and the City: The Interdependence of Zoochory and Ecosystem Dynamics in Urban Environments
The increasing urban sprawl has contributed to the extensive fragmentation and reduction of natural habitat worldwide.Urbanization has a range of adverse effects on ecosystem functioning, including the disruption of plant dispersal processes across the landscape.Urban fragmentation can alter the distance and directionality of dispersal, leading to
