A global dataset of salmonid biomass in streams

Author(s): Foote KJ; Grant JWA; Biron PM;

Salmonid fishes are arguably one of the most studied fish taxa on Earth, but little is known about their biomass range in many parts of the world. We created a dataset of estimated salmonid biomass using published material of over 1000 rivers, covering 27 countries and 11 species. The dataset, spanning 84 years of data, is the largest known compilation of ...

Weight-control compensatory behaviors patterns and correlates: a scoping review

Author(s): Yuan TY; Bouzari N; Bains A; Cohen TR; Kakinami L;

Objective: Weight-control compensatory behaviors appear to be a commonly utilized strategy for health management. Individuals engaging in such behaviors believe that the negative consequences from unhealthy behaviors will be neutralized by the positive consequences of healthy behaviors. Existing research has not reached a consensus on whether such behavio ...

Prediction of depressive symptoms in young adults by polygenic score and childhood maltreatment: Results from a population-based birth cohort

Author(s): Scardera S; Geoffroy MC; Langevin R; Perret LC; Collin-Vézina D; Voronin I; Gouin JP; Meng X; Boivin M; Ouellet-Morin I;

Childhood maltreatment is linked with later depressive symptoms, but not every maltreated child will experience symptoms later in life. Therefore, we investigate whether genetic predisposition for depression (i.e., polygenic score for depression, PGSDEP) modifies the association between maltreatm ...

Sex-specific effects of intensity and dose of physical activity on BOLD-fMRI cerebrovascular reactivity and cerebral pulsatility

Author(s): Potvin-Jutras Z; Intzandt B; Mohammadi H; Liu P; Chen JJ; Gauthier CJ;

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) and cerebral pulsatility (CP) are important indicators of cerebrovascular health and have been shown to be associated with physical activity (PA). Sex differences have been shown to influence the impact of PA on cerebrovascular health. However, the sex-specific effects of PA on CP and CVR, particularly in relation to inten ...

Near-optimal learning of Banach-valued, high-dimensional functions via deep neural networks

Author(s): Adcock B; Brugiapaglia S; Dexter N; Moraga S;

The past decade has seen increasing interest in applying Deep Learning (DL) to Computational Science and Engineering (CSE). Driven by impressive results in applications such as computer vision, Uncertainty Quantification (UQ), genetics, simulations and image processing, DL is increasingly supplanting classical algorithms, and seems poised to revolutionize ...

Early Socio-Emotional Difficulty as a Childhood Barrier to the Expected Benefits of Active Play: Associated Risks for School Engagement in Adolescence

Author(s): Kosak LA; Harandian K; Bacon SL; Archambault I; Correale L; Pagani LS;

Active play allows children to develop social and cognitive skills, which could lead to higher school engagement. Little is known about the role of child socioemotional difficulty in these associations. This study aims to examine the interaction between active play and socioemotional difficulty in childhood and their prospective association with academic ...

Electroacupuncture Reduces Heart Rate and Perceived Exertion During a Bike Test: A Preliminary Analysis

Author(s): Gaudet E; Castonguay T; Fortin M; Dover G;

Background: Preliminary research suggests that acupuncture can improve cardiovascular function. The purpose of our study was to determine if electroacupuncture can improve performance and post-exercise recovery. Methods: Thirty-two healthy people participated in this study (14 men and 18 women, aged 23.6 ± 3.5 years). The first visit included baseline me ...

The oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis gains tolerance to the antimicrobial peptide DGL13K by synonymous mutations in hagA

Author(s): Gorr SU; Chen R; Abrahante JE; Joyce PBM;

Porphyromonas gingivalis is a keystone pathogen for periodontal disease. The bacteria are black-pigmented and require heme for growth. P. gingivalis exhibit resistance to many antimicrobial peptides, which contributes to their success in the oral cavity. P. gingivalis W50 was resistant to the antimicrobial peptide LGL13K but susceptible to the all-D-amino ...

The β2-adrenergic biased agonist nebivolol inhibits the development of Th17 and the response of memory Th17 cells in an NF-κB-dependent manner

Author(s): Hajiaghayi M; Gholizadeh F; Han E; Little SR; Rahbari N; Ardila I; Lopez Naranjo C; Tehranimeh K; Shih SCC; Darlington PJ;

Introduction: Adrenergic receptors regulate metabolic, cardiovascular, and immunological functions in response to the sympathetic nervous system. The effect of ß2-adrenergic receptor (AR) as a high expression receptor on different subpopulations of T cells is complex and varies depending on the t ...
