Homonuclear Super-Resolution NMR Spectroscopy.

Homonuclear 1H NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra such as the [1H,1H]-NOESY (Nuclear Overhauser Enhancement spectroscopy) are essential for biomolecular structural biology. However, the spectrum contains hundreds to thousands of cross peaks meaning that within approximately 100 ppm2 there is significant signal overlap. Spectral resolution is thus a limiting factor for data interpretation for dynamics and structure elucidation. Acquiring the spectra at higher magnetic fields such as at a 1.2 GHz 1H frequency helps to reduce spectral crowding, since resolution scales proportionally to the magnetic field strength. Here, we show that the linewidths' of cross peaks in [1H,1H]-NOESY and [1H,1H]-TOCSY spectra can be further reduced by a factor of 2-3 in each dimension by super-resolution spectroscopy. In the indirect dimension a composite exponential-cosine weighted number of scans along the time increments are recorded and digitally smoothened by a window function. Furthermore, measurement time saving by reduced-acquisition super-resolution (RASR) is introduced. Application to the 20 kDa protein KRAS shows that highly resolved NMR spectra suitable for automated analysis can be acquired within less than 3 hours. The method opens an avenue towards automated chemical shift assignment, dynamics and structure determination of unlabeled small and medium size proteins within 24 hours.

HIERARCHICAL NEURAL NETWORKS IN PREDICTING THE PROPERTIES OF OIL AND GAS RESERVOIRS BASED ON WELL AND SEISMIC DATA

This paper describes a technique for hierarchical neural networks based on the nearest neighbor method with preliminary clustering of the original training dataset and construction of a search cluster decision tree. This method is a promising alternative to neural network technologies with deep learning and has quite a few advantages: high learning rate, identification of objects with a low degree of similarity, and the ability to generalize and retrain. As shown by testing the hierarchical neural network method on real data from the West Siberian oil and gas province, predicting the oil saturation in the Vikulov suite interval is much faster and more efficient than inversion approaches to quantitative interpretation of seismic data while achieving fairly similar geological results. This characterizes the proposed method of hierarchical neural networks as an effective tool for the quantitative interpretation of seismic data to solve geological problems.

An assessment of the environmental radiation risk from the petrologic units of north-eastern Nigeria; an insight from aero-radiometric data interpretation

Information regarding the radiation risk posed by radioactive emissions from the petrologic units in North eastern Nigeria is extremely limited. Consequently, there has been little research conducted on the environmental impact of radiation exposure from different petrologic units in this region. Hence, the 13 petrologic components of the area that comprises of the migmatites-gneiss (MG), banded gneiss (BG), biotite-hornblende granites (OGe), porphyritic biotite-hornblende granites (OGp), charnockytes (Ch), ignimbrites (JYG), basalts (bb), Keri-Keri Formation (KK), Gombe Sandstones (GS), Pindiga Formation (PS), Yolde Formation (YL), Bima Sandstones (BS), and alluvium (AL) deposits were assessed using aero-radiometric data (equivalent uranium, equivalent thorium, and percentage potassium radio-elements) acquired by Nigerian geological survey agency (NGSA) in 2009. The objective of this study is to compute the amount of radiation across the various rock units of the study area, and examine their radiation risk parameters. The results of this study showed variable levels of radiation across the various rock units examined. The average total activity concentration values recorded ranges from 261.67 ± 447.12 Bq/Kg across KK rock unit to 1482.02 ± 447.12 Bq/Kg across OGp/OGe rock types of the study area. Moreover, the average radium equivalent (Rn eq), absorbed dose rates (D) estimated ranges from 113.83±461.33 Bq/Kg to 305.19 ± 58.51 Bq/Kg, and 51.88 ± 29.65 nGyh−1 to 144.94 ± 29.65 nGyh−1 along KK Formation, OGp, and same KK Formation, and OGp respectively. The average environmental radiation hazard parameters of the annual effective dose rate (AEDE), activity utilization index (AUI), respiratory dysfunction parameters (RH in, RH out), annual gonad dose equivalent (AGDE), and excess life cancer risk (ELCR) measured across all rock units were found to be within or above their respective acceptable limits of 1 mSv/y, 300 μSv/y, and 0.29 × 10−3. Additionally, based on the conspicuously higher hazardous radiation (D, Rn eq, AEDE AGDE, RH in, RH out, and ELCR) emissions estimated from the OGp, OGe, MG, BG, and Ch petrologic units, the inhabitants of these localities should therefore limit themselves from excessive exposure to these rocks. Therefore, periodic monitoring of these areas is recommended.

A Representation-Learning-Based Graph and Generative Network for Hyperspectral Small Target Detection

Hyperspectral small target detection (HSTD) is a promising pixel-level detection task. However, due to the low contrast and imbalanced number between the target and the background spatially and the high dimensions spectrally, it is a challenging one. To address these issues, this work proposes a representation-learning-based graph and generative network for hyperspectral small target detection. The model builds a fusion network through frequency representation for HSTD, where the novel architecture incorporates irregular topological data and spatial–spectral features to improve its representation ability. Firstly, a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) module better models the non-local topological relationship between samples to represent the hyperspectral scene’s underlying data structure. The mini-batch-training pattern of the GCN decreases the high computational cost of building an adjacency matrix for high-dimensional data sets. In parallel, the generative model enhances the differentiation reconstruction and the deep feature representation ability with respect to the target spectral signature. Finally, a fusion module compensates for the extracted different types of HS features and integrates their complementary merits for hyperspectral data interpretation while increasing the detection and background suppression capabilities. The performance of the proposed approach is evaluated using the average scores of AUCD,F, AUCF,τ, AUCBS, and AUCSNPR. The corresponding values are 0.99660, 0.00078, 0.99587, and 333.629, respectively. These results demonstrate the accuracy of the model in different evaluation metrics, with AUCD,F achieving the highest score, indicating strong detection performance across varying thresholds. Experiments on different hyperspectral data sets demonstrate the advantages of the proposed architecture.

Leveraging State-of-the-Art AI Algorithms in Personalized Oncology: From Transcriptomics to Treatment

Background: Continuous breakthroughs in computational algorithms have positioned AI-based models as some of the most sophisticated technologies in the healthcare system. AI shows dynamic contributions in advancing various medical fields involving data interpretation and monitoring, imaging screening and diagnosis, and treatment response and survival prediction. Despite advances in clinical oncology, more effort must be employed to tailor therapeutic plans based on each patient’s unique transcriptomic profile within the precision/personalized oncology frame. Furthermore, the standard analysis method is not compatible with the comprehensive deciphering of significant data streams, thus precluding the prediction of accurate treatment options. Methodology: We proposed a novel approach that includes obtaining different tumour tissues and preparing RNA samples for comprehensive transcriptomic interpretation using specifically trained, programmed, and optimized AI-based models for extracting large data volumes, refining, and analyzing them. Next, the transcriptomic results will be scanned against an expansive drug library to predict the response of each target to the tested drugs. The obtained target-drug combination/s will be then validated using in vitro and in vivo experimental models. Finally, the best treatment combination option/s will be introduced to the patient. We also provided a comprehensive review discussing AI models’ recent innovations and implementations to aid in molecular diagnosis and treatment planning. Results: The expected transcriptomic analysis generated by the AI-based algorithms will provide an inclusive genomic profile for each patient, containing statistical and bioinformatics analyses, identification of the dysregulated pathways, detection of the targeted genes, and recognition of molecular biomarkers. Subjecting these results to the prediction and pairing AI-based processes will result in statistical graphs presenting each target’s likely response rate to various treatment options. Different in vitro and in vivo investigations will further validate the selection of the target drug/s pairs. Conclusions: Leveraging AI models will provide more rigorous manipulation of large-scale datasets on specific cancer care paths. Such a strategy would shape treatment according to each patient’s demand, thus fortifying the avenue of personalized/precision medicine. Undoubtedly, this will assist in improving the oncology domain and alleviate the burden of clinicians in the coming decade.

Строение центральной части палеопротерозойского Лосевского террейна по данным плотностного моделирования

The results of detailed three-dimensional density modeling of the upper crust of the central part of the Losevsky terrane located in the northern part of the Voronezh crystal massif are considered. The distribution of absolute crustal density values of to a depth of 16 km was obtained as a result of the inversion of local anomalies of the gravitational field in the Bouguer reduction. The solution of the inverse problem of gravimetry was implemented within the framework of the initial model, which was formed using digital geological and geophysical data from the study area: the regional density model of the East European Platform lithosphere and its corresponding regional gravity field; the field of local gravity anomalies, representing the difference between the observed and regional fields of the lithosphere model; generalized information on the density of sedimentary cover rocks and the crystal basement; the thickness scheme of the «gravity-active» layer, obtained on the basis of statistical analysis of the anomalous field; geological and topographic information. Quantitative interpretation of the gravimetry data allowed us to obtain fundamentally new information about the geological structure of the upper crust of the study area. The reliability of the obtained results is confirmed by the consistency of a priori data and the correspondence of the total model (local plus regional) and observed gravitational fields.

The Relationships between the Internal Nappe Zone and the Regional Mylonitic Complex in the NE Variscan Sardinia (Italy): Insight from a New Possible Regional Interpretation?

This study presents an updated interpretation of geological data collected between 1984 and 2022. The area under consideration holds significant regional importance as it is located between the Internal Nappe Zone (INZ) and the Regional Mylonitic Complex (RMC). Re-evaluation of the geological data has highlighted a more intricate structural framework than what is currently documented in the existing literature. This paper aims to illustrate, through structural analysis, that the Posada Valley Shear Zone (PVSZ) does not serve as the transitional boundary between the Inner Nappe Zone and the Regional Mylonitic Complex or High-Grade Metamorphic Complex (HGMC) as traditionally thought. Instead, the authors’ findings indicate that the transition boundary is confined to a shear band with a variable thickness ranging from 10 to 70 m at its widest points. The development of the Posada Valley Shear Zone is characterized by a series of transitions from mylonite I S-C to mylonite II S-C, extending over approximately 5 km. The formation of the Posada Valley Shear Zone is chronologically confined between the development of the East Variscan Shear Zone (EVSZ) and the emplacement of the Late Variscan granites. The differing orientations of Sm and S3 observed in the mylonitic events of the Posada Valley Shear Zone and the Regional Mylonitic Complex, respectively, are likely attributable to an anticlockwise rotation of the shortening directions during the upper Carboniferous period. Furthermore, this study proposes that the Condensed Isogrades Zone (CIZ), despite its unclear formation mechanism, should be recognized as the true transition zone between the Inner Nappe Zone and the Regional Mylonitic Complex or High-Grade Metamorphic Complex. This new interpretation challenges the previously accepted notion of increasing Variscan metamorphic zonation toward the northeast. This conclusion is supported by the identification of the same NE–SW orientation of the D2 tectonic event in both the Old Gneiss Complex (OGC in the Regional Mylonitic Complex) and the lithologies of the Inner Nappe Zone and the Condensed Isogrades Zone. The comprehensive analysis and new insights provided in this paper contribute to a refined understanding of the geological relationships and processes within this region, offering significant implications for future geological studies and interpretations.

Comparison of basal ganglia regions across murine brain atlases using metadata models and the Waxholm Space

The murine basal ganglia regions are targets for research into complex brain functions such as motor control and habit formation. However, there are several ways to name and annotate these regions, posing challenges for interpretation and comparison of data across studies. Here, we give an overview of basal ganglia terms and boundaries in the literature and reference atlases, and describe the criteria used for annotating these regions in the Waxholm Space rat brain atlas. We go on to compare basal ganglia annotations in stereotaxic rat brain atlases and the Allen Mouse brain Common Coordinate Framework to those in the Waxholm Space rat brain atlas. We demonstrate and describe considerable differences in the terms and boundaries of most basal ganglia regions across atlases and their versions. We also register information about atlases and regions in the openMINDS metadata framework, facilitating integration of data in neuroscience databases. The comparisons of terms and boundaries across rat and mouse atlases support analysis and interpretation of existing and new data from the basal ganglia.

Mugen-UMAP: UMAP visualization and clustering of mutated genes in single-cell DNA sequencing data

BackgroundThe application of Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) for dimensionality reduction and visualization has revolutionized the analysis of single-cell RNA expression and population genetics. However, its potential in single-cell DNA sequencing data analysis, particularly for visualizing gene mutation information, has not been fully explored.ResultsWe introduce Mugen-UMAP, a novel Python-based program that extends UMAP’s utility to single-cell DNA sequencing data. This innovative tool provides a comprehensive pipeline for processing gene annotation files of single-cell somatic single-nucleotide variants and metadata to the visualization of UMAP projections for identifying clusters, along with various statistical analyses. Employing Mugen-UMAP, we analyzed whole-exome sequencing data from 365 single-cell samples across 12 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, revealing distinct clusters associated with histological subtypes of NSCLC. Moreover, to demonstrate the general utility of Mugen-UMAP, we applied the program to 9 additional single-cell WES datasets from various cancer types, uncovering interesting patterns of cell clusters that warrant further investigation. In summary, Mugen-UMAP provides a quick and effective visualization method to uncover cell cluster patterns based on the gene mutation information from single-cell DNA sequencing data.ConclusionsThe application of Mugen-UMAP demonstrates its capacity to provide valuable insights into the visualization and interpretation of single-cell DNA sequencing data.

Understanding the Effects of Spacecraft Trajectories through Solar Coronal Mass Ejection Flux Ropes Using 3DCOREweb

This study investigates the impact of spacecraft positioning and trajectory on in situ signatures of coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Employing the 3DCORE model, a 3D flux rope model that can generate in situ profiles for any given point in space and time, we conduct forward modeling to analyze such signatures for various latitudinal and longitudinal positions, with respect to the flux rope apex, at 0.8 au. Using this approach, we explore the appearance of the resulting in situ profiles for different flux rope types, with different handedness and inclination angles, for both high- and low-twist CMEs. Our findings reveal that CMEs exhibit distinct differences in signatures between apex hits and flank encounters, with the latter displaying elongated profiles with reduced rotation. Notably, constant, nonrotating in situ signatures are only observed for flank encounters of low-twist CMEs, suggesting the existence of untwisted magnetic field lines within CME legs. Additionally, our study confirms the unambiguous appearance of different flux rope types in in situ signatures in all of the cases, barring some indistinguishable cases, contributing to the broader understanding and interpretation of observational data. Given the model assumptions, this may refute trajectory effects as the cause for mismatching flux rope types as identified in solar signatures. While acknowledging limitations inherent in our model, such as the assumption of constant twist and a nondeformable torus-like shape, we still draw relevant conclusions within the context of the global magnetic field structures of CMEs and the potential for distinguishing flux rope types based on in situ observations.

Diurnal variation of serum phosphorus concentrations in intact male adult domestic cats.

Monitoring serum phosphorus concentrations is crucial in the management of chronic kidney disease in cats. The diurnal variation of serum phosphorus concentration may affect clinical assessment. Characterize the diurnal variation of serum phosphorus concentration in cats and determine the associations between changes in serum phosphorus concentration and several metabolites of phosphorus metabolism. Six apparently healthy, intact male, specific-pathogen-free cats were housed in a photoperiod, humidity, and temperature-controlled facility. Blood sampling was performed hourly for 24 hours to obtain the serum concentrations of phosphorus, ionized calcium, parathyroid hormone, and calcidiol. Results were analyzed using linear mixed-effect models to determine the significance of diurnal variation and associations between serum phosphorus concentrations and other metabolites over time. Diurnal variation in serum phosphorus concentration was noted with an apex around 11:00 followed by gradually declining concentrations to reach the nadir around 23:00. The serum phosphorus concentration again increased through the early morning on the next day. An approximately 25% difference in serum phosphorus concentration at the apex and the nadir was documented. A non-linear relationship between the serum concentrations of phosphorus and ionized calcium over time was identified. Diurnal variations of serum phosphorus concentration and associations between the trending of serum phosphorus and ionized calcium concentrations were evident in a group of clinically healthy adult cats housed in a controlled environment. These findings can help in the interpretation of clinical and research data regarding calcium and phosphorus metabolism and kidney health in cats.

An alternative method to the Takagi-Taupin equations for studying dark-field X-ray microscopy of deformed crystals.

This study introduces an alternative method to the Takagi-Taupin equations for investigating the dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) of deformed crystals. In scenarios where dynamical diffraction cannot be disregarded, it is essential to assess the potential inaccuracies of data interpretation based on the kinematic diffraction theory. Unlike the Takagi-Taupin equations, this new method utilizes an exact dispersion relation, and a previously developed finite difference scheme with minor modifications is used for the numerical implementation. The numerical implementation has been validated by calculating the diffraction of a diamond crystal with three components, wherein dynamical diffraction is applicable to the first component and kinematic diffraction pertains to the remaining two. The numerical convergence is tested using diffraction intensities. In addition, the DFXM image of a diamond crystal containing a stacking fault is calculated using the new method and compared with the experimental result. The new method is also applied to calculate the DFXM image of a twisted diamond crystal, which clearly shows a result different from those obtained using the Takagi-Taupin equations.

Diagnosis Based on Population Data versus Personalized Data: The Evolving Paradigm in Laboratory Medicine.

The diagnosis of diseases is a complex process involving the integration of multiple parameters obtained from various sources, including laboratory findings. The interpretation of laboratory data is inherently comparative, necessitating reliable references for accurate assessment. Different types of references, such as reference intervals, decision limits, action limits, and reference change values, are essential tools in the interpretation of laboratory data. Although these references are used to interpret individual laboratory data, they are typically derived from population data, which raises concerns about their reliability and consequently the accuracy of interpretation of individuals' laboratory data. The accuracy of diagnosis is critical to all subsequent steps in medical practice, making the estimate of reliable references a priority. For more precise interpretation, references should ideally be derived from an individual's own data rather than from population averages. This manuscript summarizes the current sources of references used in laboratory data interpretation, examines the references themselves, and discusses the transition from population-based laboratory medicine to personalized laboratory medicine.

A Bioconductor workflow for processing, evaluating, and interpreting expression proteomics data

Background Expression proteomics involves the global evaluation of protein abundances within a system. In turn, differential expression analysis can be used to investigate changes in protein abundance upon perturbation to such a system. Methods Here, we provide a workflow for the processing, analysis and interpretation of quantitative mass spectrometry-based expression proteomics data. This workflow utilises open-source R software packages from the Bioconductor project and guides users end-to-end and step-by-step through every stage of the analyses. As a use-case we generated expression proteomics data from HEK293 cells with and without a treatment. Of note, the experiment included cellular proteins labelled using tandem mass tag (TMT) technology and secreted proteins quantified using label-free quantitation (LFQ). Results The workflow explains the software infrastructure before focusing on data import, pre-processing and quality control. This is done individually for TMT and LFQ datasets. The application of statistical differential expression analysis is demonstrated, followed by interpretation via gene ontology enrichment analysis. Conclusions A comprehensive workflow for the processing, analysis and interpretation of expression proteomics is presented. The workflow is a valuable resource for the proteomics community and specifically beginners who are at least familiar with R who wish to understand and make data-driven decisions with regards to their analyses.

Piercing the Shadows: Exploring the Influence of Signal Preprocessing on Interpreting Ultrasensitive Bioelectronic Sensor Data.

The development of ultrasensitive electronic sensors for in vitro diagnostics is essential for the reliable monitoring of asymptomatic individuals before illness proliferation or progression. These platforms are increasingly valued for their potential to enable timely diagnosis and swift prognosis of infectious or progressive diseases. Typically, the responses from these analytical tools are recorded as digital signals, with electronic data offering simpler processing compared to spectral and optical data. However, preprocessing electronic data from potentiometric biosensor arrays is still in its infancy compared to more established optical technologies. This study utilized the Single-Molecule with a Large Transistor (SiMoT) array, which has achieved a Technology Readiness Level of 5, to explore the impact of data preprocessing on electronic biosensor outcomes. A dataset consisting of plasma and cyst fluid samples from 37 patients with pancreatic precursor cyst lesions was analyzed. The findings revealed that standard signal preprocessing can produce misleading conclusions due to artifacts introduced by mathematical transformations. The study offers strategies to mitigate these effects, ensuring that data interpretation remains accurate and reflective of the underlying biochemical information in the samples.
