Summary: MicroRNAs, crucial in regulating protein-coding gene expression, are implicated in various diseases.We performed a genome-wide association study of plasma miRNAs (ex-miRNAs) in 3,743 Framingham Heart Study (FHS) participants and identified 1,027 cis-ex-miRNA-eQTLs (cis-exQTLs) for 37 ex-miRNAs, with 55% replication in an independent study.
A Hybrid Indoor Altimetry Based on Barometer and UWB
Accurate altimetry is essential for location-based services in commercial and industrial applications.However, current altimetry methods only provide low-accuracy measurements, particularly in multistorey buildings with irregular structures, such as hollow areas found in various industrial and commercial sites.This paper innovatively proposes a tig
Evaluation Analysis on Leakage Performance for Beam Seal With Two Sealing Areas
As a special type of aviation Shopping Totes hydraulic pipe joint, a beam seal comprises two annular sealing areas.This paper presented a leakage model for an annular sealing area based on a developed three-dimensional percolation grid model and the porous medium theory.Both average contact pressure and true contact width of the beam seal were simu
Major environmental drivers determining life and death of cold-water corals through time.
Cold-water corals (CWCs) are the engineers of complex ecosystems forming unique biodiversity hotspots in the deep sea.They are expected to suffer dramatically from future environmental changes in Skin Care the oceans such as ocean warming, food depletion, deoxygenation, and acidification.However, over the last decades of intense deep-sea research,
