Exploring cerebral small vessel disease signatures in familial Parkinson’s disease

Familial Parkinson's disease (PD) and vascular parkinsonism (VP) present overlapping features and may co-exist. To investigate whether PD and VP may share a potential pathogenic link and to what extent white matter hyperintensities may influence PD phenotype, we used the modified...

Early definitive fracture fixation (EDFF) does not alter circulatory neutrophil activation status in physiologically restored polytrauma: a 72-h porcine observation study

Abstract Dysregulation of the cellular innate immune system, particularly involving leukocytes and mainly neutrophils, underlies post-traumatic inflammatory complications. Early definitive fracture fixation (EDFF) triggers immune activation and may exacerbate inflammatory complic...

Environmental drivers of litter- and soil-dwelling springtail communities across European forests, assessed by morphotaxonomy and soil DNA metabarcoding

Springtails are abundant in forest litter and soils, where they play a crucial role in the transformation and decomposition of organic matter. However, most data on springtail communities originates from studies at the local and regional levels, while larger-scale studies are lac...
