This study investigates modeling the dynamics of a 3D translational parallel manipulator with closed chains using feedforward neural networks (FFNNs). The dataset exceeds 50,000 samples, incorporating experimental data collected from a robot prototype using MATLAB® real-time workshop and the National Instruments DAQ toolbox, as well as CAD simulation data from MSC ADAMS software. While achieving satisfactory mean squared error (MSE), some predictions did not fully capture the manipulator's dynamics, with small overfitting observed.

The fundamental laws of momentum and mass conservation are used to formulate the problem. The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are reduced to a set of ordinary differential equations and solved with the help of the regular perturbation method assuming the amplitude ratio (wave amplitude/half width of channel) as a flow parameter.

It is assumed that the fluid is a gray, absorbing-emitting but non-scattering medium and the Rosseland approximation is used to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. It is assumed that the liquid is opaque and absorbs and emits radiation in a manner that does not result in scattering.

The set of governing partial differential equations for the present peristaltic flow are solved in the absence of a low Reynolds number and long wavelength assumptions. The governing equations are to be solved completely, so that inertial effects can be studied.

In a broad range of industrial applications, including heat exchangers and microchannel heat sinks, fins are often employed to improve heat transfer. Encouraged by this feature, the present research is concerned with the temperature distribution caused by convective and radiative mechanisms in an internal heat-generating porous longitudinal dovetail fin (DF).

Methods: Ectopic and eutopic endometriotic tissues were collected from seventy women with endometriosis while normal endometrial tissues were obtained from 40 fertile women without endometriosis and then gene expression of SIRT-1, miR-34a,p53, Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl-xL and FoxO-1 were measured using RT-PCR.
Results: We detected that SIRT-1 and Bcl-xL genes expressions was significantly up-regulated while miRNA34-a,p53, Bax, Bcl-2 and FoxO-1 were down-regulated in endometrial tissue of endometriotic patients compared to that of those without endometriosis.
The outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) continues to constitute an international public health emergency. Seasonality is a long-recognized attribute of many viral infections of humans. Nevertheless, the relationship between environmental factors and the spread of infection, particularly for person-to-person communicable diseases, remains poorly understood.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus, up to January 2019, for relevant studies that compared glyburide with subcutaneous insulin for patients with GDM. We extracted maternal and neonatal outcomes from included studies, performed meta-analysis, evaluated heterogeneity, assessed the risk of bias of included studies, and conducted subgroup and sensitivity analyses.
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a common reproductive endocrine disorder characterized by obesity, hyperandrogenism, and insulin resistance (IR). MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA associated with ovarian follicle development and female fertility. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of miRNA- 320 and its target gene endothelin-1 (ET-1) as a noninvasive biomarker of PCOS and to evaluate its possible relationship with IR as well as clinic-morphological features of PCOS.

An accurate numerical descriptor for protein sequence is introduced. It is basically a set of each three successive amino acids in the sequence (triplet), starting from left to right, in addition to the distances between each two successive amino acids in the triplet such that the summation of these distances does not exceed 8. This numerical descriptor combines two features the amino acid composition and the position of each amino acid relative to the other nearby amino acids.
