Many persistent viral infections are characterized by a hypofunctional T cell response and the upregulation of negative immune regulators.These events occur days after the initiation of infection.However, the very early host-virus interactions that determine the establishment of viral persistence remain poorly uncharacterized.Here we show that to e
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) is an arthropod-transmitted RNA virus and the causative agent Bracket of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) in wild and domestic ruminants.In North America, white-tailed deer (WTD) experience the highest EHD-related morbidity and mortality, although clinical disease is reported in cattle during severe epi
The inspection of high ceilings or surfaces is important to ensure the quality and safety of infrastructure; however, the approach adopted by people or conventional robots is rather limited.Kinodynamic constraints (simultaneous kinematic and 2 Pack Tables dynamic constraints) are presented by obstacles in real-life scenarios, such as suspended pipi
Abstract Background Most surviving hip-fracture patients experience reduced mobility and lose some of their functional ability, which increases the risk of complications and rehospitalization.Post-discharge transitional programs to reduce readmissions and disabilities have shown some success.Telerehabilitation refers to the use of technologies to p
