Cognitive impairment (CI) causes severe impairment of brain function and quality of life of patients, which brings a great burden to society. Cerebral hypoxia is an important factor in the pathogenesis of CI. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy may mitigate hypoxia-induced CI, but its efficacy and mechanisms are not fully understood.

However, the effect of FGF21 on L-lactate homeostasis and its mechanism remains unclear until now. Forty-five Six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into three groups: control, L-lactate, and FGF21 (1.

Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the protective effects of FGF21 on L-lactate homeostasis and liver lesions in a type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) mice model.
Methods: Six-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were divided into control, T1DM, and FGF21 groups.

To perform anomaly detection for trajectory data, we study the Sequential Hausdorff Nearest-Neighbor Conformal Anomaly Detector (SHNN-CAD) approach, and propose an enhanced version called SHNN-CAD + . SHNN-CAD was introduced based on the theory of conformal prediction dealing with the problem of online detection. Unlike most related approaches requiring several not intuitive parameters, SHNN-CAD has the advantage of being parameter-light which enables the easy reproduction of experiments.

The clustering approach based on information bottleneck (IB) principle has shown its effectiveness for trajectory data, in which a predefined number of the clusters and an explicit distance measure between trajectories are not required. However, presenting directly the final results of IB clustering gives no clear idea of both trajectory data and clustering process.
