Abstract In a galaxy cluster, the relative spatial distributions of dark matter, member galaxies, gas, and intracluster light (ICL) may connote their mutual interactions over the cluster’s evolution. However, it is a challenging problem to provide a quantitative measure for matching the shapes between two multidimensional scalar distributions. We present a novel methodology, named the weighted overlap coefficient (WOC), to quantify the similarity of two-dimensional spatial distributions. We compare the WOC with a standard method known as the modified Hausdorff distance (MHD) method. We find th

Abstract Background Reductions in motivation figure prominently in the clinical presentation of schizophrenia (SZ) and major depressive disorder (MDD). One critical nexus in the motivation system that drives real-world behaviour is effort-based decision-making (EBDM), which refers to the cost-benefit calculations involved in computing the amount of effort one is willing to expend in order to obtain a desired reward. Important individual differences are associated with these processes, and impairments in motivation can arise if any relevant cost-benefit information is not properly computed, app

Abstract Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy with heterogeneous genetics and clinical course. Studies have shown that there is a strong correlation between xenograft in vivo engraftment potential and clinical outcome. Furthermore, such studies have conducted gene expression profiling to identify gene signatures associated with engraftment potential, leukemic stem cell (LSC) property, and prognosis. Most of these analyses were limited to protein coding genes. More recently, advances in next generation sequencing (NGS) have created a paradigm shift on our perception of tra

Abstract Background More than a century of research on the neurobiological underpinnings of the Major Psychoses (Schizophrenia SZ, Bipolar Disorder BD, Major Depressive Disorder, Schizoaffective Disorder SZA) has been unable to identify diagnostic “markers”. An alternative approach is to study dimensional psychopathological syndromes that cut across categorical diagnoses. Brain imaging studies on the correlates of syndromes are thus far restricted to one diagnosis, however it is unclear, whether structural brain correlates of syndromes are the same across diagnoses.

Abstract:
Many large raptor species are currently rare and most of them are endangered, and thus details of their distribution, abundance, and survival are the most important indicators for planning conservation and restoration measures and assessing the impacts of anthropogenic transformation of the environment and/or climate change on the populations of these species. Abundance and spatial distribution of the birds under study are determined during field surveys. At the result, we obtain the distribution density in individuals, pairs, nests per unit area (for example, pairs/100 km2), or the distance b

Abstract Clonal evolution of DCIS to invasion Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is the most common form of preinvasive breast cancer and, despite treatment, a small fraction (5-10%) of DCIS patients develop subsequent invasive breast cancer (IBC). If not treated, at least 3 out of 4 women with DCIS will not develop IBC1-3. This implies many women with non-progressive, low-risk DCIS are likely to carry the burden of overtreatment. To solve this DCIS dilemma, two fundamental questions need to be answered. The first question is, how the subsequent IBC is related to the initial DCIS lesion. The seco

Abstract Background The search for relevant biomarkers of major depressive disorder (MDD) is challenged by heterogeneity; biological alterations may vary in patients expressing different symptom profiles. Moreover, most research considers a limited number of biomarkers, which may not be adequate for tagging complex network-level mechanisms. Here we studied clusters of proteins and examined their relation with MDD and individual depressive symptoms.
