OBJECTIVES Distinction of hydatidiform moles from non-molar specimens and subclassification of hydatidiform moles as complete and partial are important for clinical practice, but diagnosis based solely on histomorphology suffers from poor interobserver reproducibility. Nowadays, pathologists rely on molecular techniques, however these methods are technically difficult, relatively expensive, and...

The struggles for decolonisation involve problems of coloniality knowledge that persist in postcolonial states and shape their national educational programmes. In Ecuador, the request to decolonise education has been part agenda Indigenous organisations decades, successfully led formulation programmes intercultural bilingual education. its radical acception, theoretically aims represent revital...

Subset selection plays an important role in the field of evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO). Especially, EMO algorithm with unbounded external archive (UEA), subset is essential post-processing procedure to select a prespecified number solutions as final result. In this article, we discuss efficiency greedy for hypervolume, inverted generational distance (IGD), and IGD plus (IGD+) i...

Nutrient-evoked gastrointestinal reflexes are likely initiated by specialized epithelial cells located in the small intestine that detect luminal stimuli and release mediators that activate vagal endings. The G-protein alpha-gustducin, a key signal molecule in lingual taste detection, has been identified in mouse small intestine, where it may also subserve nutrient detection; however, the pheno...

The distribution of lectin bindings in the testis of the smallest ruminant, lesser mouse deer (Tragulus javanicus), was studied using 12 biotinylated lectins specific for d-galactose (peanut agglutinin PNA, Ricinus communis agglutinin RCA I), N-acetyl-d-galactosamine (Dolichos biflorus agglutinin DBA, Vicia villosa agglutinin VVA, Soybean agglutinin SBA), N-acetyl-D-glucosamine and sialic acid ...

We present an overview of research at UEA into the animation of sign language using a gesture notation, outlining applications that have been developed and key aspects of the implementation. We argue that the requirements for virtual human signing involve the development of expressive characters. Although the principal focus of work has been on sign language, we believe that the work can be gen...
