Sarcopenia diagnosis using skeleton-based gait sequence and foot-pressure image datasets by Muhammad Tahir Naseem, Na-Hyun Kim, Haneol Seo, JaeMok Lee, Chul-Min Chung, Sunghoon Shin, Chan-Su Lee

“…IntroductionSarcopenia is a common age-related disease, defined as a decrease in muscle strength and function owing to reduced skeletal muscle. One way to diagnose sarcopenia is through gait analysis and foot-pressure imaging.Motivation and research gapWe collected our own multimodal dataset from 100 subjects, consisting of both foot-pressure and skeleton data with real patients, which provides a unique resource for future studies aimed at more comprehensive analyses. …”

Study on River System Flood Forecasting Scheme for Longtan Hydropower Station Interval in Hongshui River by DU Yong, FU Yupeng, WEI Yongjiang, LI Zongtai

“…Longtan Hydropower Station is a flood control project in the Pearl River Basin,but there is currently a lack of a comprehensive river system flood forecasting scheme.In order to give full play to the flood control and storage function of Longtan Hydropower Station,tributary control stations such as Leigongtan,Moyang,Pinglihe,Pinghu,and Xianrenqiao are selected,and the key areas of concern are determined through the analysis of important sub-intervals.The river system flood forecasting scheme for the Longtan Hydropower Station interval is constructed by using the Xin'an River three-source runoff generation model,three-source lag routing convergence model,and Maskingen convergence algorithm.The research results show that the proportion of the maximum inflow flood volume of Longtan Hydropower Station is usually in uncontrolled intervals,followed by the tributaries in Guizhou Province (Mengjiang River,Bawang River,Caodu River,and Liudong River),which are the focus of flood forecasting.The total average relative peak flow error and the average relative flood volume error in the river system flood forecasting scheme are both 10%,and the average deterministic coefficients are above 0.75.The overall results are relatively accurate.Therefore,the river system flood forecasting scheme for the Longtan Hydropower Station interval can be applied to real-time flood operation forecasting,and it lays a solid foundation for further improving the “forecast,early warning,rehearsal,and contingency plan” capability.…”

Dissecting the genetic basis of response to salmonid alphavirus in Atlantic salmon by Domniki Manousi, Dorota Monika Jaskula, Fabian Grammes, Tim Martin Knutsen, Shahmir Naseer, Samuel AM Martin, Thomas Moen, Marie Saitou, Sigbjørn Lien

“…Additionally, another QTL on Ssa07 was detected, linked to infection-specific response. Transcriptomics analysis of the genes overlapping the Ssa03 QTL region revealed significant expression differences among three tandemly duplicated gig1-like genes, whereas allele-specific expression analysis detected several SNPs with putative functional impact on the particular genes. …”
