CONCLUSION: This study underscores the feasibility of employing a composite biomarker of inflammatory resilience to evaluate ER interventions. Further validation in additional nutritional intervention studies is necessary. Once validated, this composite biomarker could offer a novel approach for assessing low-grade inflammation and phenotypic flexibility. →
Hugging Face’s SmolAgents framework provides a lightweight and efficient way to build AI agents that leverage tools like web search and code execution. In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to build an AI-powered research assistant that can autonomously search the web and summarize articles using SmolAgents. This implementation runs seamlessly, requiring minimal setup, and showcases… →
Scientific publishing has expanded significantly in recent decades, yet access to crucial research remains restricted for many, particularly in developing countries, independent researchers, and small academic institutions. The rising costs of journal subscriptions exacerbate this disparity, limiting the availability of knowledge even in well-funded universities. Despite the push for Open Access (OA), barriers persist, as… →
In-context learning (ICL) is something that allows large language models (LLMs) to generalize & adapt to new tasks with minimal demonstrations. ICL is crucial for improving model flexibility, efficiency, and application in language translation, text summarization, and automated reasoning. Despite its significance, the exact mechanisms responsible for ICL remain an active area of research, with… →
CONCLUSION: The combination of HD + HP and LCD in treating CKD with MHD is effective, evidently rectifying disruptions in serum Ca2+ and P metabolism, enhancing kidney function, lessening the body’s inflammatory response, and lessening VC. →
OpenCV is an open-source computer vision library that provides a robust set of tools for handling images and videos. Among its many functionalities, it offers essential methods to read, display, and write images, making it a crucial library for various image processing applications. With its simple yet efficient functions—imread(), imshow(), and imwrite()—users can seamlessly load… →
INTRODUCTION: Sexual minority women represent one of the highest-risk groups for hazardous drinking and comorbid mental health problems (eg, depression, anxiety). Research has identified cognitive (eg, expectations of rejection), affective (eg, emotion dysregulation) and behavioural (eg, avoidant coping) pathways through which minority stress (eg, stigma) places sexual minority women at disproportionate risk of hazardous drinking… →
INTRODUCTION: Many chemotherapy agents used to treat advanced cancer are inherently mucotoxic, causing breakdown of the gastrointestinal mucosa (gastrointestinal mucositis (GI-M)) and lead to a constellation of secondary complications including diarrhoea, malnutrition, anorexia, pain, fatigue and sleep disturbances. These symptoms are usually managed individually, leading to polypharmacy and its associated risks. The endocannabinoid system regulates… →
Artificial intelligence has evolved from simple rule-based systems into sophisticated, autonomous entities that perform complex tasks. Two terms that often emerge in this context are AI Agents and Agentic AI. Although they may seem interchangeable, they represent different approaches to building intelligent systems. This article provides a technical analysis of the differences between AI Agents… →
Large language models have significantly advanced our understanding of artificial intelligence, yet scaling these models efficiently remains challenging. Traditional Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures activate only a subset of experts per token to economize on computation. However, this design leads to two notable issues. First, experts process tokens in isolation—each expert works independently without any cross-communication. This… →
