TAR: A Highly Accurate Machine-Learning Model to Predict the Cocoon Shell Weight of Tasar Silkworm Antheraea Mylitta
In this paper, we propose a machine-learning model for predicting the shell weight of silkworm cocoons Antheraea mylitta D. ( Saturnidae ) without...

Prediction of birth weight using body measurements of local caprine population kids raised in a low-input breeding mode under arid environment
The aim of this study is to establish linear measurements of local goat kids at birth and their factors of variation, as well as their possible...

Molecular weight‐dependent effects of Undaria pinnatifida fucoidan isolates on palmitate‐induced inflammation and muscle atrophy in C2C12 myotubes
Obesity is consistently linked to skeletal muscle atrophy. It is characterized by a chronic inflammatory state that produces various pro-inflammatory...

Brain responses to nutrients are severely impaired and not reversed by weight loss in humans with obesity: a randomized crossover study
Post-ingestive nutrient signals to the brain regulate eating behaviour in rodents, and impaired responses to these signals have been associated with...

Enhanced mechanical and humidity resistance properties of heat-treated wood by impregnation of low-molecular-weight lignin
Heat treatment is admittedly a significant value-adding step in wood processing. However, the decrease in mechanical properties of wood caused by...

Targeting adipocytic discoidin domain receptor 2 impedes fat gain while increasing bone mass
Obesity is closely associated with low-bone-mass disorder. Discoidin domain receptor 2 (DDR2) plays essential roles in skeletal metabolism, and is...

Housing-temperature reveals energy intake counter-balances energy expenditure in normal-weight, but not diet-induced obese, male mice
Most metabolic studies on mice are performed at room temperature, although under these conditions mice, unlike humans, spend considerable energy to...
