A novel RF-CEEMD-LSTM model for predicting water pollution
Abstract Accurate water pollution prediction is an important basis for water environment prevention and control. The uncertainty of input variables and the nonstationary and nonlinear characteristics of water pollution series hinder the accuracy and reliability of water pollution prediction. This study proposed a novel water pollution prediction model (RF-CEEMD-LSTM) to improve the performance of water…

Effective gestational weight gain advice to optimize infant birth weight in Japan based on quantile regression analysis
Abstract The optimal range of gestational weight gain (GWG) was recently raised in Japan. This may help reduce small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants, but may also increase large-for-gestational-age (LGA) infants. This study performed hypothetical experiments to determine effective GWG advice based on quantile regression analysis. In a total of 354,401 singleton pregnancies registered in the perinatal database…

Method for obtaining reliable R-waves in fish electrocardiograms by utilizing conductivity of seawater
Abstract A simple method for measuring bioelectric signals of fish in seawater is expected for managing the health of farmed fish and clarifying the ecophysiology of natural fish. We previously proposed a simple and unique method for measuring bioelectric signals of fish by inserting only one special internal electrode (which can be isolated from seawater)…

This is how the world finally ends the HIV/AIDS pandemic
Nearly 30 years ago — more than a decade after HIV/AIDS was first identified — a group of scientists in the United States and France reported impressive results from a clinical trial. Pregnant women living with HIV could reduce the risk of transmitting the virus to their newborn child by around 67% if they took…

As Mexico marks conservation day, advocates say it takes too long to list vulnerable species
MEXICO CITY (AP) — Residents of Mexico’s Caribbean reef island of Banco Chinchorro near Belize have hunted the meat and salmon-pink shells of queen conch for generations. As populations have shrunk in recent decades, Mexico has enforced limits and bans on catching the shellfish. The species has continued to decline despite these measures, which included…
