In vivo estimation of motor unit intrinsic properties in individuals with spinal cord injury by Zhihao Duan, Asta Kizyte, Emelie Butler Forslund, Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik, Pawel Herman, Ruoli Wang

“…The HD-EMG signals were subsequently decomposed into MN spike trains and the common synaptic input to the MN pool was estimated. A simplified leaky integrate-and-fire neuron model was then used to simulate MN spiking trains, with soma size and inert period as tunning parameters, which are crucial for MU recruitment and firing patterns, respectively. …”

Time Series Data Provide Insights into the Evolution and Abundance of One of the Most Abundant Viruses in the Marine Virosphere: The Uncultured Pelagiphages vSAG 37-F6 by Marina Vila-Nistal, Ramiro Logares, Josep M. Gasol, Manuel Martinez-Garcia

“…We explored the temporal dynamics of vSAG 37-F6, assessing periodic fluctuations in abundance and evolutionary patterns using long- and short-term data series. In the long-term series (7 years), metagenomics showed negative selection acting on all viral genes, with a highly conserved overall diversity over time composed of a pool of yearly emergent, highly similar novel strains that exhibited a seasonal abundance pattern with two peaks during winter and fall and a decrease in months with higher UV radiation. …”

Differential gray matter correlates and machine learning prediction of abuse and internalizing psychopathology in adolescent females by Sara A. Heyn, Taylor J. Keding, Josh Cisler, Katie McLaughlin, Ryan J. Herringa

“…Interestingly, structural regions with the highest importance in making individual IP predictions had a high degree of overlap with group-level patterns. We have identified unique structural correlates of childhood abuse and IP on both the group and individual level with a high degree of overlap, providing evidence that IP and trauma exposure may uniquely and jointly impact child and adolescent structural neurodevelopment. …”
