Reversible Spectral Speech Watermarking with Variable Embedding Locations Against Spectrum-Based Attacks by Xuping Huang, Akinori Ito

“…However, the drawback of fixed expansion is that the stego signal is prone to being detected by a spectral analysis. Therefore, this paper proposes two other new expansion methodologies that embed the data into variable locations—random expansion and adaptive expansion with distortion estimation for embedding—which effectively conceal the watermark’s presence while maintaining high perceptual quality with an average segSNR better than 21.363 dB and average MOS value better than 4.085. …”

In Vivo Evaluation of 1-O-(4-(2-Fluoroethyl-Carbamoyloxymethyl)-2-Nitrophenyl)-O-β-D-Glucopyronuronate: A Positron Emission Tomographic Tracer for Imaging β-Glucuronidase Activity in a Tumor/Inflammation Rodent Model by Iněs F. Antunes, Hidde J. Haisma, Philip H. Elsinga, Aren van Waarde, Antoon T.M. Willemsen, Rudi A. Dierckx, Erik F.J. de Vries

“…The enzyme has also been investigated as a target in prodrug therapy for cancer. To investigate the role of β-GUS in pathologies and to optimize β-GUS-based prodrug therapies, we recently developed a positron emission tomographic (PET) tracer, 1-O-(4-(2-fluoroethyl-carbamoyloxymethyl)-2-nitrophenyl)-O-β-D>-glucopyronuronate ([ 18 F]FEAnGA), which proved to be selectively cleaved by β-GUS. …”

Raising public awareness on anthropogenic underwater noise by means of playful activities and serious games by Paolo Diviacco, Massimiliano Iurcev

“…In particular, it is very difficult to recreate collective experiences such as team games due to possible connectivity issues. This is why we opted for a single user mode. We have found that our approach is very effective in raising awareness on the topic of anthropogenic noise in both live and online settings. …”

Identification of CHD1L as an Important Regulator for Spermatogonial Stem Cell Survival and Self-Renewal by Shan-Shan Liu, Yin-Shan Bai, Li Feng, Wen-Wei Dong, Yang Li, Li-Ping Xu, Ning-Fang Ma

“…Moreover, the Chd1l gene expression is activated by GDNF in the cultured mouse SSCs, and the GDNF signaling pathway was modulated by endogenous levels of Chd1l; as demonstrated by the gene expression levels of GDNF, inducible transcripts Etv5, Bcl6b, Pou3f, and Lhx1, but not that of GDNF-independent gene, Taf4b, were significantly downregulated by Chd1l knockdown in mouse SSCs. …”

Geographic patterns and ecological causes of phylogenetic structure in mosses along an elevational gradient in the central Himalaya by Hong Qian, Oriol Grau

“…Mosses are important constituents of vegetation in the Himalaya, and knowledge of geographic patterns and ecological causes of phylogenetic structure of mosses along elevational gradients in the Himalaya is critical to understanding the assembly of plant diversity in general, and moss diversity in particular, in the Himalaya. Here, we investigate the relationships of phylogenetic structure metrics reflecting different evolutionary depths with elevation and climatic variables representing mean temperature and precipitation conditions, climate extremes, and climate seasonality for mosses distributed along an elevational gradient spanning about 5000 m in the central Himalaya, Nepal. …”
