Allostery is a phenomenon observed in many proteins where binding of a macromolecular partner or a small-molecule ligand at one location leads to specific perturbations at a site not in direct contact with the region whe...

The management of rock wool waste poses a growing challenge, with global production exceeding 2.5 million tons annually. Thermal inertization converts this fibrous hazardous waste into safe glassy products; however, high...

Abstract Background Hypercortisolism affects calcium and phosphate metabolism in dogs; however, the exact mechanisms are not completely understood. Objectives To evaluate circulating concentrations of whole parathormone ...

In this article, we report the measurement of underwater aerophobicity, through the captive-bubble method, for different polymeric coatings employed to protect microscale and nanoscale flexible electronic devices for sea...

BackgroundGranular cell astrocytoma (GCA) is a rare, morphologically distinct variant of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma that can appear deceptively low-grade yet behave aggressively. Its molecular features remain poorly defin...

Abstract The massive production of plastics, together with inadequate waste management, has intensified the problem of plastic pollution. Recently, the scientific community has increasingly investigated the interactions ...

Abstract Background Ambient air pollution has been linked to atrial fibrillation (AF), yet the underlying metabolic mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods We analyzed 227,324 UK Biobank participants without baselin...

Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH) to prepare and deliver risk assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘High risk plants, ...

Abstract Background NEDD8 ultimate buster 1 is an interferon-inducible tumor suppressor increasingly recognized as a prognostic biomarker in breast cancer. Low cytoplasmic expression correlates with aggressive disease, y...

This paper addresses the dynamics of world wine consumption over the past 50 years in 26 countries, verifying whether or not there is a macro-tendency towards a common consumption style, despite differences in taxation, ...

Abstract This paper presents an Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna (AVA) design, focusing on its constructional aspects. The main features analysed are the connector attachment structure and the introduction of a polytetrafluoroe...

Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a rare, heterogeneous, highly lethal tumor of the biliary tract. Due to the lack of effective treatments, an early identification of ICC is essential to achieve the best outcome i...

Background and purpose: Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) delivers high doses with submillimeter precision to small targets, requiring accuracy in both dose calculation and delivery. This study aimed to perform a dosimetri...

Marine organisms manipulate their surrounding flow through their swimming dynamics, which affects the transport of their own odor cues. We demonstrate by direct numerical simulations how a group of swimmers, moving at in...

The intestinal microbiota has been implicated in neurological function through the gut–brain axis, and specific probiotic strains have been proposed to influence neuroactive pathways relevant to sleep. This randomized,...

La Comisión y la Corte Interamericanas han demostrado, en su práctica, mayor coherencia y consistencia con los postulados y los fundamentos del régimen de los derechos humanos que los demostrados por su contraparte eu...

Wheat is the most widely grown food crop, with 761 Mt produced globally in 2020. To meet the expected grain demand by mid-century, wheat breeding strategies must continue to improve upon yield-advancing physiological tra...

Abstract This study explores the use of an upper-limb wearable exoskeleton for teaching violin technique to novices through haptic-assisted training. The educational potential of this technology was evaluated using a fra...

ABSTRACT Background and Aim Evolutionary principles offer critical insights into pandemic dynamics but have been largely overlooked in contemporary responses to COVID‐19. Relaxed natural selection, increased global mob...

Objectives Smoking is recognised as one of the strongest environmental risk factors for the development of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Cigarette smoke increases protein post-translational modifications (PTMs), including c...

To improve early detection of invasive tree pathogens, foliar putative pathogenic fungal communities in reciprocal ex patria sentinel plantings across three continents were examined. Geographic location and tree species ...
