Research on Visual SLAM Navigation Techniques for Dynamic Environments by Tongjun Wang, Peijun Zhao

“…Aiming at the inconsistency between the direction of dynamic objects and static background optical flow, this method adopts a high-real-time dynamic region mask detection algorithm to eliminate the feature points in the dynamic region mask, remove the camera motion optical flow according to the original feature information, and then cluster the optical flow amplitude of dynamic objects so as to realize the dynamic region mask detection and eliminate the dynamic signpost points combined with the polar geometric constraints. …”

Association between exposure in the cement production industry and non-malignant respiratory effects: a systematic review by Anne Kristin Møller Fell, Karl Christian Nordby

“…A dose–response relationship between exposure and decline in lung function has only been shown in 1 cohort. 2 studies have detected small increases in FeNO levels during a work shift; 1 study reported signs of airway inflammation in induced sputum, whereas another did not detect an increase in hospitalisation rates.Conclusions Lack of power, adjustment for possible confounders and other methodological issues are limitations of many of the included studies. …”

Active peptides of TSP-1 inhibit retinal angiogenesis through the CD36 pathway in a rat model of choroidal neovascularization. by Yadi Li, Aiping Deng, Kangwei Jiao, Jie Yan, Wandong Zuo, Yujie Dong, Wenrong Xu, Yuting Li, Chunming Guo, Maorong Chen, Run Tian, Zhulin Hu

“…Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is an endogenous protein that was found to regulate multiple biological processes within the body, and it has been proven to exhibit an inhibitory effect on neovascularization. Besides, the function of TSP-1 during the inhibition of neovascularization was currently considered to mainly focus on its type Ⅰ repeats (TSRs), which was attributed to the large molecular weight, complex structure, and possible unknown functions of TSP-1. …”
