Olfactory loss has been identified as one of the common symptoms related to COVID-19 infection.Although olfactory loss is recognized, our understanding of both the extent of loss and time to olfactory recovery following infection is less well known.Similarly, knowledge of potential impactful patient factors and therapies that influence olfactory re
Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) mapping is the first step in monitoring urban sprawl and its environmental, economic and societal impacts.While satellite imagery and vegetation indices are commonly used for LULC mapping, the limited resolution of these images can hamper object recognition for Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA).In this study

Abstract The detection of a stochastic Gravitational Wave (GW) background sourced by a cosmological phase transition would allow us to see the early Universe from a completely new perspective, illuminating aspects of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics and inflationary cosmology.In this study, we investigate whether the evolution of the scalar
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is an evolutionarily conserved neuropeptide with 10 amino acid residues, of which several structural variants exist.A molecular form known as GnRH2 ([His5 Trp7 Tyr8]GnRH, also known as chicken GnRH II) is widely distributed in vertebrates except for rodents, and has recently been implicated in the regulation of
