The BabyView camera: Designing a new head-mounted camera to capture children's early social and visual environments.

Head-mounted cameras have been used in developmental psychology research for more than a decade to provide a rich and comprehensive view of what infants see during their everyday experiences. However, variation between these devices has limited the field's ability to compare results across studies and across labs. Further, the video data captured by these cameras to date has been relatively low-resolution, limiting how well machine learning algorithms can operate over these rich video data.

A phase I trial of riluzole and sorafenib in patients with advanced solid tumors: CTEP #8850.

Background: Overexpression of metabotropic glutamate receptor 1 (GRM1) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple cancers. Riluzole, an inhibitor of glutamate release, showed synergistic antitumor activity in combination with the multi-kinase inhibitor sorafenib in preclinical models. This phase I trial identified the toxicity profile, dose-limiting toxicities, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of riluzole combined with sorafenib in patients with advanced cancers.

Inhibitory effect of roburic acid in combination with docetaxel on human prostate cancer cells.

Roburic acid (ROB) is a naturally occurred tetracyclic triterpenoid, and the anticancer activity of this compound has not been reported. Docetaxel (DOC) is the first-line chemotherapeutic agent for advanced stage prostate cancer but toxic side effects and drug resistance limit its clinical success. In this study, the potential synergistic anticancer effect and the underlying mechanisms of ROB in combination with DOC on prostate cancer were investigated.

Essential Oils from Diels Attenuate Inflammatory Response and Oxidative Stress through Regulation of MAPK and NF-κB Signaling Pathways.

Diels (), a widely popular vegetable in China, is famous for its medicinal and nutritional values. However, the anti-inflammatory effects of essential oil from (EOZS) remain unclear. In this study, EOZS from seven regions in China were extracted and analyzed by GC-MS.

Effects of atorvastatin in combination with celecoxib and tipifarnib on proliferation and apoptosis in pancreatic cancer sphere-forming cells.

Cancer stem cell (CSC) plays an important role in pancreatic cancer pathogenesis and treatment failure. CSCs are characterized by their ability to form tumor spheres in serum-free medium and expression of CSC related markers. In the present study, we investigated the effect atorvastatin, celecoxib and tipifarnib in combination on proliferation and apoptosis in Panc-1 sphere-forming cells.
