Synaptic Excitatory to Inhibitory imbalance in Alzheimer’s Disease
… a strong correlational link between E/I imbalance and loss of cognition; and showed a pro-excitatory shift of this balance in brain regions known to be hyperactive in Alzheimer’s disease subjects.

Assimilation of N¹⁵-histidine in amino acid imbalance
… used to follow the limiting amino acid in the imbalanced diet in rats fed a chemically-defined imbalanced or corrected diet. Total nitrogen content and atom percent N¹⁵ were determined on the urine, gastrointestinal contents, diet, and the acid-soluble and protein fractions of the liver, …

Haplotype-Informed Allelic Imbalance Detection From Rna In Cancer
… alterations (SCNAs), which result in allelic imbalance, i.e., deviations from the expected 1-to-1 allelic ratios at heterozygous loci. We initially applied a native version of our method to 1,970 tumor samples from 7 sites in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), inferring genotypes directly from …

Power system energy imbalance settlement in deregulated electricity market
… the event. The financial settlement for this imbalance energy is different from the normal contract settlement. In the ideal case the imbalance should be zero but this is almost impossible as the contracted values are usually based on demand forecasts and which contain errors. The imbalance …

Time-Varying Frequency Selective IQ Imbalance Estimation and Compensation
… high data rate and multi-user systems. IQ imbalance is one of the problems of DDC transceivers that limits their image rejection capabilities. Compensation techniques for frequency independent IQI arising due to gain and phase mismatches of the mixers in the I/Q paths of the transceiver …

A Novel Penalized Log-likelihood Function for Class Imbalance Problem
… is maximized, which do not apply to class imbalance problems (e.g., fraud detection, rare disease diagnoses, customer conversion prediction, cybersecurity, predictive maintenance). When trained on imbalanced data, the resulting models tend to be biased towards the majority class (i.e. …

The ICT gender imbalance in schools and beyond: missed opportunities
‘Pipeline shrinkage’, the steady attrition of women in the ICT industry despite their academic achievement, has been of great concern not only in the United Kingdom but also internationally for almost a quarter of a century. This study reviewed literature and prior research from both national and …

Degenerative retrolisthesis: is it a compensatory mechanism for sagittal imbalance
Study Design: Retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected patient database. Objective: to investigate the spinopelvic morphology and global sagittal balance of degenerative retrolisthesis, and to determine whether retrolisthesis is a result of spinopelvic morphology or a compensatory …

I/Q imbalance mitigation for space-time block coded communication systems
… imperfections, the in-phase/quadrature (I/Q) imbalance caused by the non-ideal matching between the relative amplitudes and phases of the I and Q branches always exists in the practical implementation of MIMO STBC communication systems. Such distortion results in a complex conjugate term of …

States of Allelic Imbalance on the X Chromosomes in Human Females
<p>Allelic imbalance, in which two alleles at a given locus exhibit differences in gene expression, chromatin composition and/or protein binding, is a widespread phenomenon in the human and other complex genomes. Most examples concern individual loci located more or less randomly around the genome …

Imbalance Between Neutrophil Elastase and Elafin Promotes Breast Cancer Growth and Progression
<p>Elafin, an endogenous serine protease inhibitor, is a critical component of the epithelial barrier against neutrophil elastase (NE) activity. The central hypothesis examined in this dissertation was that elafin has tumor suppressive properties in breast cancer. In support of this hypothesis, …

Acquired copper imbalance in diabetes-induced cardiac disease: Molecular mechanisms and reversibility
… It has also been shown that copper imbalance in the myocardium can be directly or indirectly involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes-induced cardiovascular disease. Recent studies from our group have shown that chronic treatment with a divalent Cu(II)-selective chelator, TETA, can …
