Abstract: A pharmaceutical composition includes a preparation of virus-like particles (VLPs) obtained from the gastrointestinal tract of a subject and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. The VLPs can include bacteriophages, eukaryotic viruses, or gene transfer agents. A VLP composition may be administered to a subject having, or at risk of having dysbiosis, in an amount effective to amelio-rate at least one symptom or clinical sign of dysbiosis. A VLP composition also may be administered to a subject in preparation for administering a source of bacteria, to improve the receptivity of subject's gut to source of bacteria.

Abstract: A system for hearing assistance devices to assist hearing aid fitting applied to individual differences in hearing impairment. The system is also usable for assisting fitting and use of hearing assistance devices for listeners of music. The method uses a subjective space approach to reduce the dimensionality of the fitting problem and a non-linear regression technology to interpolate among hearing aid parameter settings. This listener-driven method provides not only a technique for preferred aid fitting, but also information on individual differences and the effects of gain compensation on different musical styles.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods for treating a hearing disorder associated with maladaptive neuroplasticity, reduction of inhibition, shift of excitation-to-inhibition balance, changes in central gain, and/or changes in neural sensitivity in a subject by inhibiting the function and/or production of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) in the subject. The present disclosure provides methods of administering to the subject a TNF-α inhibitory agent in an amount effective to treat the subject for a hearing disorder associated with maladaptive neuroplasticity, reduction of inhibition, shift of excitation-to-inhibition balance, changes in central gain, and/or changes in neural sensitivity. TNF-α inhibitory agents of the subject disclosure include agents that inhibit the function TNF-α, inhibit the production of TNF-α, inhibit TNF-α signaling, inhibit TNF-α expression, or inhibit TNF-α signaling pathway genes in the subject. The present disclosure also provides methods for treating a hearing disorder associated with maladaptive neuroplasticity, reduction of inhibition, shift of excitation-to-inhibition balance, changes in central gain, and/or changes in neural sensitivity in a subject by disrupting one or more alleles of a TNF-α signaling pathway gene in a cell of the subject.

Abstract: An interval observer based on an equivalent circuit-thermal model for lithium-ion batteries is presented. State of charge-temperature-dependent parameters are considered as unknown but bounded uncertainties in a single cell model. A parallel and a series arrangement of five cells are used for observer design, where cell heterogeneity is accounted for through the uncertainty bounding functions.
