John Collier’s Paintings of Clytemnestra by Georgina Muskett

“…In both paintings, Collier created an architectural setting featuring Mycenaean motifs, very accurately rendered but used in a somewhat anachronistic manner. The author considers the two differing depictions of Clytemnestra using the methodology of identifying specific archaeological objects that Collier incorporated into his two paintings and, in addition, suggests ways in which he could have encountered them. …”

Cloud architecture data center network abnormal traffic filtering algorithm based on improved grey clustering algorithm by Xuefeng ZHOU, Qiang XU, Yanting TAN, Jiayi LANG, Hang JING, Zhiqiang ZHAO

“…To avoid abnormal traffic affecting the safe operation of the cloud architecture data center network, it was necessary to filter the abnormal traffic of the cloud architecture data center network.The difficulty of filtering abnormal traffic varies under different signal-to-noise ratios and channel conditions.In order to ensure the filtering effect of abnormal traffic under different filtering conditions, a cloud architecture data center network abnormal traffic filtering algorithm based on improved grey clustering algorithm was proposed.A network traffic transmission model was built for cloud architecture data centers through time-frequency analysis, and network traffic sequences were collected.Weighted generalized distance was introduced to improve the grey clustering algorithm, and the improved grey clustering algorithm was used to calculate the optimal clustering results of network traffic sequence features, achieving traffic sequence feature extraction.The principal component eigenvalues of traffic sequence features were obtained through principal component analysis, two subspaces were constructed, and traffic features were mapped in a matrix manner to the two subspaces.Abnormal traffic was filtered based on the square prediction error of the mapping period vector and the threshold calculation results.The experimental results show that this algorithm can achieve feature extraction of data center network traffic sequences through clustering, effectively filtering abnormal traffic under different signal-to-noise ratios and channel conditions.When the signal-to-noise ratio of the network was 25 dB and the traffic was transmitted in a Gaussian channel, the filtering effect of abnormal traffic was more prominent.…”

Metabolomic Insights into the Allelopathic Effects of <i>Ailanthus altissima</i> (Mill.) Swingle Volatile Organic Compounds on the Germination Process of <i>Bidens pilosa</i> (L.) by Leonardo Bruno, Diana M. Mircea, Fabrizio Araniti

“…<b>Results:</b> Our findings revealed that VOCs from <i>A. altissima</i> significantly inhibited the germination speed and overall germination rates of <i>B. pilosa</i> in a dose-dependent manner. Metabolomic profiling showed disruptions in energy and amino acid metabolism pathways, specifically involving delayed breakdown of starch and key metabolites, indicating inhibition of critical metabolic processes during early germination stages. …”

Inhibitory Effect of <i>Moringa oleifera</i> Seed Extract and Its Behenic Acid Component on <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Biofilm Formation by Seoyoung Kim, Tae-Jong Kim

“…Although behenic acid did not affect cell growth, it inhibited biofilm formation in a concentration-dependent manner, up to 20 mg/L. The cell physiology changes caused by behenic acid are potentially unrelated to biofilm formation inhibition, as no correlation was noted between cell hydrophobicity, polysaccharide production, extracellular DNA production, or protein production and behenic acid concentration. …”

Social criticism and tricky irony in Sanai's mind and language by Rouholah Hadi, Mitra Golchin, Mohammadreza Torki, Sima Rahmanifar

“…The current study was aimed to examine how Sanai's linguistic choices are used to reflect the status quo in the society and to demonstrate his thoughts, beliefs and concerns by evaluating the extent, manner, and use of irony in his poems. Based on the results presented herein, there are often a network of different ironies beside each other in the poetic language of the Sanai, by which his poems were turned into an integrated structure; consequently the general readers can be enjoyed from its appearance, and a particular reader from the discovery of hidden layers. …”

Expressional Subpopulation of Cancers Determined by G64, a Co-regulated Module by Jae-Woong Min, Sun Shim Choi

“…Interestingly, the 22 cancers also expressed the G64 genes in a correlated manner, as observed previously in an LADC study. Considering that gene expression levels were continuous among different tumor samples, tumor subpopulations were investigated using extreme expressional ranges of G64—i.e., tumor subpopulation with the lowest 15% of G64 expression, tumor subpopulation with the highest 15% of G64 expression, and tumor subpopulation with intermediate expression. …”

“…Summarizing on those conditions in which there was enough information, we conclude that high stress levels, whether intrinsic (triggered by the cognitive challenge) or extrinsic (induced by conditions completely unrelated to the cognitive task), tend to facilitate Pavlovian conditioning (in a linear-asymptotic manner), while being deleterious for spatial/explicit information processing (which with regard to intrinsic stress levels follows an inverted U-shape effect). …”

Platelet Responses in Cardiovascular Disease: Sex-Related Differences in Nutritional and Pharmacological Interventions by Valeria Gasperi, M. Valeria Catani, Isabella Savini

“…Moreover, as healthy nutrition is widely recognized to play a key role in CVD, we also focused our attention on specific dietary components (especially polyunsaturated fatty acids and flavonoids) and patterns (such as Mediterranean diet), which also emerged to impact platelet functions in a sex-dependent manner. These results highlight that full understanding of gender-related differences will be useful for designing personalized strategies, in order to prevent and/or treat platelet-mediated vascular damage.…”
