Cross-species comparisons between pigs and mice reveal conserved sex-specific intraspinal inflammatory responses after spinal cord injury by Reena Kumari, Gabrielle V. Hammers, Robert H. Hammons, Andrew N. Stewart, Steven M. MacLean, Tracy Niedzielko, Lonnie E. Schneider, Candace L. Floyd, John C. Gensel

“…Interestingly, we observed a similar significant increase in intraspinal CD3 + T-cell accumulation in female vs. male mice at 6 weeks post-thoracic contusion SCI. Interpretation Our observations indicate that sex is a potential biological variable for T-cell infiltration and may contribute to sex-based differences in SCI pathophysiology and recovery outcomes.…”

A Rule-Based Parser in Comparison with Statistical Neuronal Approaches in Terms of Grammar Competence by Simon M. Strübbe, Alexander T. D. Grünwald, Irina Sidorenko, Renée Lampe

“…Unlike neuronal approaches, which are based on statistics and are very popular today, our rule-based approach explicitly addresses language ambiguities by examining all possible interpretations and eliminating the incorrect ones. The purpose of the present study is to compare the performance of our rule-base parser with two state-of-the-art statistical parsers, one based on dependencies between words (SpaCy parser) and the other based on linguistic constituents (Stanford parser). …”

The influence of social interactions in mitigating psychological distress during the COVID−19 pandemic: a study in Sri Lanka by Isuru Thilakasiri, Tharaka Fonseka, Isuri Mapa, Roshan Godaliyadda, Vijitha Herath, Ramila Thowfeek, Anuruddhika Rathnayake, Parakrama Ekanayake, Janaka Ekanayake

“…Two such subgroups were identified where the respective relationships to the retrieved principal factors and their demographics were thoroughly examined and interpreted. This resulted in the identification of contrasting perspectives between the two groups toward the maintenance and the state of social relationships during the pandemic, which revealed that one group was more “socially connected” in nature resulting in their mental state being comparatively better in coping with the pandemic. …”

Retrieval of Land Surface Temperature From Passive Microwave Observations Using CatBoost-Based Adaptive Feature Selection by Yang Dai, Yingbao Yang, Xin Pan, Penghua Hu, Xiangjin Meng, Fanggang Li, Zhenwei Wang

“…Existing PMW retrieval methods often utilize large amounts of remote sensing data, overlooking the fact that redundant data can increase computational and time costs, reduce model interpretability, and may negatively impact accuracy. In this article, we proposed a PMW-LST retrieval method that integrates CatBoost-Based adaptive feature selection. …”
