Summary: This study explores the effect of feeding systems on fat deposition in yaks through transcriptomics and lipidomics. It evaluates the thickness of subcutaneous fat and detects differences in transcriptomes and lipidomes between yaks under stall and graze feeding. The study reveals differences in lipid metabolism and identifies key genes and pathways involved in fat deposition.

Summary: The article discusses the use of biosensors to map the spatial compartmentation of intracellular signaling pathways and illuminate key mechanisms that establish the boundaries of an intricate biochemical activity architecture. It reveals the role of regulatory fences, intracellular membranes in creating unique signaling platforms, and how molecular assemblies enable the precise spatial tuning of biochemical activity.

Summary: This paper discusses the development of an Indian Asian face set for psychological research, examines the potential confounds of using U.S.-specific norms for non-U.S. face stimuli, and investigates the impact of face familiarity on accuracy in identifying face ethnicity. Results indicate cultural differences in face perception and accuracy in identifying ingroup versus outgroup faces.

Summary: There is a documented association between obesity and the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study found that SARS-CoV-2 can be detected in subcutaneous adipose tissue but not in visceral adipose tissue or epicardial adipose tissue in a model of mild infection. The study also observed higher levels of angiotensin-converting-enzyme-2 mRNA expression in subcutaneous adipose tissue compared to visceral adipose tissue. Additionally, both subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue showed a reduction in CD69 expression in T cells after SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Summary: The article discusses the principles and techniques for modern facial fat grafting to the face and neck, emphasizing the importance of understanding age-related changes and proper anatomical zones. Different techniques for fat processing and infiltration are compared, with a focus on the utility of fat grafting in facial rejuvenation procedures. The authors highlight the potential complications and success of fat grafting, and also mention emerging techniques such as lipotumescence.

Summary: This study presents a systematic robust design optimization methodology for a cantilever retaining wall backfilled with shredded tire in earthquake-prone areas. By considering the robustness of design and cost efficiency, the response of concern was the wall tip deflection. The final optimal design was determined through optimization in terms of cost and standard deviation of response.

Summary: This study used ultrasound imaging and cadaveric dissections to reevaluate the layered anatomy of the forehead. The results identified a layered arrangement that includes skin, superficial fatty layer, suprafrontalis fascia, orbicularis oculi and frontalis muscle, a homogenous layer of fat, subfrontalis fascia, preperiosteal fat, and periosteum.

Summary: The study found that the volume and dimensions of superficial midfacial fat tissue change significantly with age. While the upper and middle compartments decreased in volume, the width of the lower and middle compartments increased. The results were consistent across genders and age groups.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of different microwave treatment times on fat loss, fatty acid profile, lipid transfers, and microstructure of pork subcutaneous back fat. Results showed that microwave treatment increased fat loss and altered the composition of fatty acids. Microscopy and magnetic resonance imaging analysis demonstrated the effects of microwave treatment on fat migration and cell size.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the confounding effect of subcutaneous fat thickness and found that fat has a negative impact on estimates of muscle quality. Equations for correcting muscle quality estimates were provided after adjust focus in ultrasound images, leading to improved accuracy in estimating muscle quality for obese/overweight individuals.
