Zipper Pattern: An Investigation into Psychotic Criminal Detection Using EEG Signals.

Electroencephalography (EEG) signal-based machine learning models are among the most cost-effective methods for information retrieval. In this context, we aimed to investigate the cortical activities of psychotic criminal subjects by deploying an explainable feature engineering (XFE) model using an EEG psychotic criminal dataset. In this study, a new EEG psychotic criminal dataset was curated, containing EEG signals from psychotic criminal and control groups.

Obstetric and neonatal outcomes in pregnancies complicated by placental abruption with vs. without supporting sonographic findings- A retrospective cohort study.

Introduction: Placental abruption (PA) is a major obstetric complication associated with worse maternal and neonatal outcomes. Though ultrasound findings may support the diagnosis of PA, the association of such findings to the severity of PA and maternal and neonatal outcomes is not yet clear. We aimed to assess the maternal and neonatal outcomes of PA cases with vs.

Two redundant transcription factor binding sites in a single enhancer are essential for mammalian sex determination.

Male development in mammals depends on the activity of the two SOX gene: Sry and Sox9, in the embryonic testis. As deletion of Enhancer 13 (Enh13) of the Sox9 gene results in XY male-to-female sex reversal, we explored the critical elements necessary for its function and hence, for testis and male development. Here, we demonstrate that while microdeletions of individual transcription factor binding sites (TFBS) in Enh13 lead to normal testicular development, combined microdeletions of just two SRY/SOX binding motifs can alone fully abolish Enh13 activity leading to XY male-to-female sex reversal.

Transposable elements acquire time- and sex-specific transcriptional and epigenetic signatures along mouse fetal gonad development.

Gonadal sex determination in mice is a complex and dynamic process, which is crucial for the development of functional reproductive organs. The expression of genes involved in this process is regulated by a variety of genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. Recently, there has been increasing evidence that transposable elements (TEs), which are a class of mobile genetic elements, play a significant role in regulating gene expression during embryogenesis and organ development.

Towards a "Testis in a Dish": Generation of Mouse Testicular Organoids that Recapitulate Testis Structure and Expression Profiles.

The testis is responsible for sperm production and androgen synthesis. Abnormalities in testis development and function lead to disorders of sex development and male infertility. Currently, no system exists for modelling the testis.
