The authors looked at genes that were differentially expressed in patients who had and had not had febrile seizures to determine what differences in gene expression existed.

The authors looked at genes that were differentially expressed in patients who had and had not had febrile seizures to determine what differences in gene expression existed.
Read More...Deep sequential models versus statistical models for web traffic forecasting
The authors looked at ways to provide better forecasting on website traffic. They found that deep learning models performed better than statistical models.
Read More...The effect of common food preservatives on the growth of bacteria
Here the authors aimed to find the best preservative combinations to stop bacterial growth in food, using data modeling and biochemical experiments. They discovered that single preservatives are often not enough, with varying effectiveness against different bacteria, and suggest future research into combining preservatives for better results.

The authors looked at alternative production processes for PHB plastic in an effort to reduce environmental impact. They found that no alternative process was able to significantly decrease the environmental impact of PHB production, but that optimizing dewatering steps during production could lead to the largest improvement on environmental impact.

The authors looked at different ways to build computational resources that would analyze shooting form for basketball players.
Read More...Designing gRNAs to reduce the expression of the DMPK gene in patients with classic myotonic dystrophy
The authors describe the design and testing of new guide RNAs targeting the DMPK gene, which is responsible for myotonic dystrophy.

Here the authors investigated the effects of natural coagulants on reducing the turbidity of water samples from the Tennessee River Watershed. They found that turbidity reduction was higher at lower temperatures for eggshells. They then projected and mapped turbidity reactions under two climate change scenarios and three future time spans for eggshells. They found site-specific and time-vary turbidity reactions using natural coagulants could be useful for optimal water treatment plans.
Read More...Diagnosis and treatment delay in patients with OCD in the United States over the past three decades
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can cause significant impairment, and studies indicate that delays in diagnosis and treatment lead to worse outcomes. This study aimed to assess whether these delays have improved over the past three decades and to identify their causes.
