Developmental and environmental effects on the assembly of glutenin polymers and the impact on grain quality of wheat
Wheat kernel development can be divided into three phases i.e. cell division, cell enlargement and dehydration. Accumulation of gluten proteins continues till the end of the cell enlargement phase. During the dehydration phase, post-translational polymerization of the glutenin subunits occurs to form very large glutenin polymers. Assembly of the glutenin polymers has been monitored by increase in the unextractable polymeric protein. Lines possessing HMW-GS related to dough strength (e.g. 5+10) started accumulating large polymers several days earlier than lines with HMW-GS related to dough weakness (e.g. 2+12) and maintained their higher amounts till maturity. This may be explained by faster polymerization resulting from a higher concentration of cysteine residues in the x-type HMW-GS.
Sulphur deficiency leads to an increase in the ratio of HMW- to LMW-GS, causing a shift in the MWD to higher MWs, resulting in bucky dough properties. High temperature during grain development appears to shift the MWD to lower MWs with corresponding lowering of dough strength but the presence of strength-associated HMW-GS appears to confer greater tolerance to heat stress. Since sulphur deficiency and higher global temperatures may be expected to increase in the future, some suggestions how breeders may use strategies to counter these effects are put forward
Learning disabilities : barriers to choice in residential services.
A recent study has revealed the extent of the obstacles to choice and control in residential settings for people with learning disabilities. In the first part of this article the first two authors highlight the key messages for practice. In the second part of the article the Social Care Institute for Excellence provides an overview of other research and resources on residential services and learning disabilities

MeSH term explosion and author rank improve expert recommendations
Information overload is an often-cited phenomenon that reduces the productivity, efficiency and efficacy of scientists. One challenge for scientists is to find appropriate collaborators in their research. The literature describes various solutions to the problem of expertise location, but most current approaches do not appear to be very suitable for expert recommendations in biomedical research. In this study, we present the development and initial evaluation of a vector space model-based algorithm to calculate researcher similarity using four inputs: 1) MeSH terms of publications; 2) MeSH terms and author rank; 3) exploded MeSH terms; and 4) exploded MeSH terms and author rank. We developed and evaluated the algorithm using a data set of 17,525 authors and their 22,542 papers. On average, our algorithms correctly predicted 2.5 of the top 5/10 coauthors of individual scientists. Exploded MeSH and author rank outperformed all other algorithms in accuracy, followed closely by MeSH and author rank. Our results show that the accuracy of MeSH term-based matching can be enhanced with other metadata such as author rank

Classification of Premature Ventricular Contraction Using Deep Learning
Electrocardiogram (ECG) analysis has been used to identify different heart problems and deep learning is emerging as a common tool to analyse ECGs. Premature ventricular contraction (PVC) is the most common cause of abnormal heartbeats; in most cases this is harmless but under specific conditions, it can lead to a life-threatening cardiac disease. Automated PVC detection in this scenario is a task of significant importance for relieving the heavy workloads of experts in the manual analysis of long-term ECGs. To identify PVCs, this research aims to use the MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database to classify QRS complexes using five different deep neural networks: Long Short Term Memory, AlexNet, GoogleNet, Inception V3 and ResNet-50. The results showed high efficiency and reliability in the final diagnoses during two separate experiments (one with the entire dataset and the other with a balanced dataset). The ResNet-50 was the first experiment's best classifier (accuracy = 99.8%, F1-score = 99.2%), and the second experiment's best classifier was Inception V3 (accuracy = 98.8%, F1-score=98.8%). Relevant information, in this research, was extrapolated from a study of the confusion matrix to conduct a “failure analysis” to understand where and why the classifiers made incorrect classifications
