Genome wide adaptations of Plasmodium falciparum in response to lumefantrine selective drug pressure. by Leah Mwai, Abdi Diriye, Victor Masseno, Steven Muriithi, Theresa Feltwell, Jennifer Musyoki, Jacob Lemieux, Avi Feller, Gunnar R Mair, Kevin Marsh, Chris Newbold, Alexis Nzila, Céline K Carret

“…Among those are 18 known and putative transporters including the multidrug resistance gene 1 (pfmdr1), the multidrug resistance associated protein and the V-type H+ pumping pyrophosphatase 2 (pfvp2) as well as genes associated with fatty acid metabolism. In addition we detected a clear selective advantage provided by two genomic loci in parasites grown under LM drug pressure, suggesting that all, or some of those genes contribute to development of LM tolerance--they may prove useful as molecular markers to monitor P. falciparum LM susceptibility.…”

Optimal Statistical Feature Subset Selection for Bearing Fault Detection and Severity Estimation by Chhaya Grover, Neelam Turk

“…The performance of bearing fault detection systems based on machine learning techniques largely depends on the selected features. Hence, selection of an ideal number of dominant features from a comprehensive list of features is needed to decrease the number of computations involved in fault detection. …”

Unraveling the roles of spatial working memory sustained and selective neurons in prefrontal cortex by Mohammad Aliramezani, Christos Constantinidis, Mohammad Reza Daliri

“…In this study, we differentiate between working memory (WM)-sustained neurons, which show task-related activity without stimulus spatial selectivity, and working memory (WM)-selective neurons, which are selective for the location of the stimulus. …”

Food selectivity in Autism Spectrum Disorder: implications of eating, sensory and behavioural profile by Maria Pia Riccio, Maria Marino, Raffaele Garotti, Annalisa Tassiello, Valeria Maffettone, Mariangela Pezone, Carmela Bravaccio

“…No significant correlations were observed between the behavioural profile, intellective quotient and intensity of autistic symptomatology with food selectivity. In addition no significant scores were observed on the basis of sex.DiscussionAs far as can be seen from the results, the food selectivity of ASD subjects appears to be underlain mainly by sensory abnormalities and does not correlate with other clinical aspects of ASD subjects. …”
