Robust tunable acoustic impedance control on electroacoustic resonators for aircraft noise reduction

Air traffic noise emissions are responsible for a significant part of the overall environmental noise, especially in the vicinity of airports. Exposure to environmental noise is known to negatively impact health and to be associated with cardiovascular dis ...

Spatial proteogenomics reveals distinct and evolutionarily conserved hepatic macrophage niches

Bart Deplancke, Wouter Saelens

The liver is the largest solid organ in the body, yet it remains incompletely characterized. Here we present a spatial proteogenomic atlas of the healthy and obese human and murine liver combining single-cell CITEseq, single-nuclei sequencing, spatial tran ...

Corona discharge actuator as an active sound absorber under normal and oblique incidence

Hervé Lissek, Stanislav Sergeev, Thomas Humbert

In the majority of active sound absorbing systems, a conventional electrodynamic loudspeaker is used as a controlled source. However, particular situations may require an actuator that is more resistant to harsh environments, adjustable in shape, and light ...

Patient respiratory-triggered quantitative T-2 mapping in the pancreas

Tobias Kober, Tom Hilbert, Reto Meuli, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen

Background Long acquisition times and motion sensitivity limit T-2 mapping in the abdomen. Accelerated mapping at 3 T may allow for quantitative assessment of diffuse pancreatic disease in patients during free-breathing. Purpose To test the feasibility of ...

DUCT: An Upper Confidence Bound Approach to Distributed Constraint Optimization Problems

Boi Faltings, Christos Dimitrakakis, Brammert Ottens

We propose a distributed upper confidence bound approach, DUCT, for solving distributed constraint optimization problems. We compare four variants of this approach with a baseline random sampling algorithm, as well as other complete and incomplete algorith ...

Bicaudal C1 promotes pancreatic NEUROG3+ endocrine progenitor differentiation and ductal morphogenesis

Laurence Anne E Lemaire

Mutations in Bicaudal C1 (BICC1), an RNA binding protein involved in translational regulation, have been associated with cystic kidney disease both in humans and in mice. Since kidney cysts associate with pancreatic defects in several human syndromes, we i ...

The Receptor TGR5 Protects the Liver From Bile Acid Overload During Liver Regeneration in Mice

Kristina Schoonjans

Many regulatory pathways are involved in liver regeneration after partial hepatectomy (PH) to initiate growth, protect liver cells, and sustain functions of the remnant liver. Bile acids (BAs), whose levels rise in the blood early after PH, stimulate both ...

Studies of the isolation and viability of human islets of langerhans

Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan

Pancreas obtained from 34 adult human cadaver organ donors was divided into proximal and distal segments, and the duct to each segment was cannulated. Collagenase was injected into the proximal duct of 7 glands and into the distal duct of 7 others; the duc ...
