Weight trajectories in aging humanized APOE mice with translational validity to human Alzheimer's risk population: A retrospective analysis. by Francesca Vitali, Jean-Paul Wiegand, Lillian Parker-Halstead, Allan Tucker, Roberta Diaz Brinton

“…Translational validity of mouse models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is variable. Because change in weight is a well-documented precursor of AD, we investigated whether diversity of human AD risk weight phenotypes was evident in a longitudinally characterized cohort of 1,196 female and male humanized APOE (hAPOE) mice, monitored up to 28 months of age which is equivalent to 81 human years. …”

Regional simulations of equatorial spread F driven with, and an analysis of, WAM-IPE electric fields by Aaron Kirchman, David Hysell, Tzu-Wei Fang

“…The WAM-IPE electric fields are then studied through a simple sensitivity analysis of a field-line integrated electrodynamics model similar to the one used in WAM-IPE. This analysis suggests there is no simple tuning of ion composition or neutral winds that accurately reproduce ISR-observed electric fields on a day-to-day basis. …”

Bayesian optimization of radical polymerization reactions in a flow synthesis system by Shogo Takasuka, Sho Ito, Shunto Oikawa, Yosuke Harashima, Tomoaki Takayama, Aniruddha Nag, Araki Wakiuchi, Tsuyoshi Ando, Tetsunori Sugawara, Miho Hatanaka, Tomoyuki Miyao, Takamitsu Matsubara, Yu-Ya Ohnishi, Hiroharu Ajiro, Mikiya Fujii

“…It is therefore necessary to optimize the polymerization process to account for such composition drift. In the present study, styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymers were generated using a flow synthesis system and the processing variables were tuned employing Bayesian optimization (BO) to obtain a target composition. …”

Customers’ Perceptions as an Antecedent of Satisfaction with Online Retailing Services by Peter Misiani Mwencha, Stephen Makau Muathe

“…This paper reports the results of a study that investigated the antecedent role of customers’ perceptions vis-a-vis satisfaction with online retailing services. While the study model conceptualizes customers’ perceptions as a composite variable made up of three dimensions (perceived attributes, perceived risk and perceived value) prescribed by four established information systems (IS) and consumer behaviour frameworks, namely the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Perceived Risk Theory (PRT), Theory of Consumption Values (TCV) and Expectations-Artifact Model of Satisfaction (EAMS), it does not specify how the different perceptual factors infl uence online satisfaction; instead it aggregates all three dimensions into a higher-order construct called “customers’ perceptions” and tries to understand the nature of relationship between the composite independent variable and the dependent variable. …”
