All-optical, computation-free time-multiplexing super-resolved imaging based on speckle illumination.

The time-multiplexing super-resolution concept requires post-processing for extracting the super-resolved image. Moreover, to perform the post-processing image restoration, one needs to know the exact high-resolution encoding pattern. Both of these limiting conditions are overcome by the method and experiment reported in this letter.

Sensing of SARS-CoV-2-infected cells by plasmacytoid dendritic cells is modulated via an interplay between CD54/ICAM-1 and CD11a/LFA-1 α integrin.

Unlabelled: SARS-CoV-2 infection induces interferon (IFN) response by plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), but the underlying mechanisms are poorly defined. Here, we show that the bulk of the IFN-I release comes from pDC sensing of infected cells and not cell-free virions. Physical contact (or conjugates) between pDCs and infected cells is mediated through CD54-CD11a engagement, and such conjugate formation is required for efficient IFN-I production.

Prognosis for fetuses with isolated severe growth retardation from 23 gestational weeks with an initial assessment unfavorable to an active management.

Objective: To study perinatal outcomes for newborns with early, isolated, severe FGR, for whom initial active management was considered unreasonable or impossible at an obstetric-pediatric assessment and to identify the determinants associated with a course that made active management reasonable.

Material And Methods: This retrospective observational single-center study occurred in a level-3 university hospital maternity unit. It included all pregnancies with a singleton fetus presenting isolated FGR <3rd percentile at 23 weeks or more of gestation with an obstetric-pediatric assessment (OPA) initially unfavorable to active management.

Exploring self-supervised learning biases for microscopy image representation.

Self-supervised representation learning (SSRL) in computer vision relies heavily on simple image transformations such as random rotation, crops, or illumination to learn meaningful and invariant features. Despite acknowledged importance, there is a lack of comprehensive exploration of the impact of transformation choice in the literature. Our study delves into this relationship, specifically focusing on microscopy imaging with subtle cell phenotype differences.
