Chinese herbal medicines are effective for treating colon cancer (CC).CC development is reportedly associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis and immune function dysregulation.Herein we explored the therapeutic effects of a Chinese herbal medicine anticancer cocktail soup (CHMACS) on mice with CC and also explored its regulatory effects on gut microb
An Assessment of Satellite Radiance Data Assimilation in RMAPS
Due to the availability of observations and the effectiveness of bias correction, it is still a challenge KIDS SNOW to assimilate data from the polar orbit satellites into a limited-area and frequently updated model.This study assessed the initial application of satellite radiance data from multiple platforms in the Rapid-refresh Multi-scale Analys
Abstracts of Presentations to the Working Session on Improving Predictive Modeling of Mycotoxin Risk for Africa Held at the 3rd ASM2022 on 7 September 2022, in Stellenbosch, South Africa
In 2008, the African Postharvest Losses Information Systems project (APHLIS, accessed on 6 September 2022) developed an algorithm for estimating the scale of cereal postharvest losses (PHLs).The relevant scientific literature and contextual information was used to build profiles of the PHLs occurring along the value chains of nine cereal crops by c
Comparing neural sentence encoders for topic segmentation across domains: not your typical text similarity task
Neural sentence encoders (NSE) are effective in many NLP tasks, including topic segmentation.However, no systematic comparison of their performance in topic segmentation has been performed.Here, we present such a comparison, using supervised and unsupervised segmentation models based on NSEs.We first compare results with baselines, showing that the
Leri-Weill Dyschondrosteosis Syndrome: Analysis via 3DCT Scan
Background: Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD) is a pseudoautosomal form of skeletal dysplasia, characterized by abnormal craniofacial phenotype, short stature, and Galaxy A51 mesomelia of the upper and lower limbs.Methods: We describe two female patients with LWD.Their prime clinical complaints were severe bouts of migraine and antalgic gait.Resul
