Meanwhile, the new classification method is based on optimizing the parameters of a multilayer perceptron neural network (WWPAPSO+MLP). A publicly available dataset is employed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

WWPAPSO+MLP achieves superior performance, with an accuracy of 97.3% and a sensitivity of 98.8%.

SWI is a 3D gradient-echo sequence with high spatial resolution that leverages both phase and magnitude effects. The interaction of paramagnetic (such as hemosiderin and deoxyhemoglobin), diamagnetic (including calcifications and minerals), and ferromagnetic substances with the local magnetic field distorts it, leading to signal changes. Neurodegenerative diseases are typically characterized by the progressive loss of neurons and their supporting cells within the neurovascular unit. This cellular decline is associated with a corresponding deterioration of both cognitive and motor abilities. Many neurodegenerative disorders are associated with increased iron accumulation or microhemorrhages in various brain regions, making SWI a valuable diagnostic tool in clinical practice. Suggestive SWI findings are known in Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia, atypical parkinsonian syndromes, multiple sclerosis, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, hereditary ataxias, Huntington's disease, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

The current study aimed to improve the performance of an enriched mixed microbial population via bioaugmentation with <i>Megasphaera sueciensis</i> and <i>Clostridium carboxidivorans</i> to improve the metabolite spectrum. The initial fermentation in trickle-bed reactors mainly yielded acetate, a low-value compound. Introducing <i>M. sueciensis</i>, which converts acetate into higher-chain fatty acids, shifted production toward butyrate (up to 3.2 g/L) and caproate (1.1 g/L). The presence of <i>M. sueciensis</i> was maintained even after several media swaps, showing its ability to establish itself as a permanent part of the microbial community. Metataxonomic analysis confirmed the successful integration of <i>M. sueciensis</i> into the mixed culture, with it becoming a dominant member of the Veillonellaceae family. In contrast, bioaugmentation with <i>C. carboxidivorans</i> was unsuccessful. Although this strain is known for producing alcohols, such as butanol and hexanol, it did not significantly enhance alcohol production, as attempts to establish it within the microbial consortium were unsuccessful. Despite these mixed results, bioaugmentation with complementary microbial capabilities remains a promising strategy to improve gas fermentation efficiency. This approach may enhance the economic feasibility of industrial-scale renewable chemical production.</p>","PeriodicalId":8874,"journal":{"name":"Bioengineering","volume":"12 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144156247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(iii) Is NMC altered in the elderly or a population affected by a neuromuscular or neurologic disorder?

Despite large variability in methodology, significant NMC was detected in most of the studies. NMC was able to discriminate between a healthy population and a population affected by a neuromuscular or neurologic disorder. Tasks requiring higher sensorimotor control resulted in an elevated level of NMC.
