In topological terms, the diencephalon lies between the hypothalamus and the midbrain. It is made up of three segments, prosomere 1 (pretectum), prosomere 2 (thalamus), and prosomere 3 (the prethalamus). A number of MRI-based atlases of different parts of the mouse brain have already been published, but none of them displays the segments the diencephalon and their component nuclei. In this study we present a new volumetric atlas identifying 89 structures in the diencephalon of the male C57BL/6J 12 week mouse. This atlas is based on an average of MR scans of 18 mouse brains imaged with a 16.4T scanner. This atlas is available for download at www.imaging.org.au/AMBMC. Additionally, we have created an FSL package to enable nonlinear registration of novel data sets to the AMBMC model and subsequent automatic segmentation.

Psychological measures frequently show trait-like properties, and the ontological status of stable psychological traits has been discussed for decades. We argue that these properties can emerge from causal dynamics of time-varying processes, which are from the analysis model, potentially leading to the estimation of traits that are, at least in part, illusory. Theories positing the importance of a large set of dynamic psychological causes across development are consistent with the existence of illusory traits.

Background: Extensive nursing literature exists on the term person-centred care. Nevertheless, there is scant literature defining or explicating the concept. Rather, necessary contextual pre-conditions are often presented under the guise of explicit definitions.

Article Synopsis
  • Large language models learn language patterns through statistical methods, while ontologies provide symbolic knowledge that can enhance these models; both can work together effectively.
  • The MaterioMiner dataset links materials mechanics concepts with textual data, featuring 179 classes annotated by three raters across four publications, leading to a total of 2191 curated entities.
  • The study also evaluates annotation consistency among raters and demonstrates how pre-trained language models can be fine-tuned for named entity recognition, paving the way for advances in materials language models and knowledge graph creation.

Amplified Cell Cycle Genes Identified in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer.

Cancers (Basel)

August 2024

Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer and Allied Diseases, Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE 68198, USA.

The objective of this study was to identify differentially expressed genes and their potential influence on the carcinogenesis of serous-type ovarian cancer tumors. Serous cancer is an epithelial ovarian cancer subtype and is the most common type of ovarian cancer. Transcriptomic profiles of serous cancer and non-cancerous datasets were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO-NCBI).

Investigating and enhancing the effectiveness of behaviour change interventions requires detailed and consistent specification of all aspects of interventions. We need to understand not only their content, that is the specific techniques, but also the source, mode, schedule, and style in which this content is delivered. Delivery style refers to the manner by which content is communicated to intervention participants.
