Neurobiological correlates of longitudinal grey matter volume changes in preclinical Alzheimer’s disease

Background: Structural brain changes during the earliest asymptomatic stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain poorly understood. Previous research in preclinical AD shows heterogeneous findings, reporting both subtle neuronal loss and paradoxical increases in grey matter (GM) v...

The Association of Umbilical Cord Blood Neurofilament Light With Nonreassuring Fetal Status: A Prospective Observational Study

( Int J Gynaecol Obstet . 2026 Mar;172(3):1491–1500. doi:10.1002/ijgo.70421) A prospective observational study explored whether neurofilament light (NfL), a marker of neuronal injury, can be reliably measured in umbilical cord blood and whether it is associated with nonreassuring...

Polymer-Driven Self-Templated Synthesis of Boronate-COF Hollow Spheres: Toward the Development of Size-Selective Nanoreactors

Abstract Covalent organic frameworks are a family of porous crystalline structures gaining attention due to their promising applications. However, despite significant efforts, the synthesis and understanding of uniform and specific morphologies remain a challenge. Herein, we repo...

Detection of spiking motifs of arbitrary length in neural activity using bounded synaptic delays

In the context of spiking neural networks, the temporal coding hypothesis is increasingly preferred over the rate coding hypothesis due to its advantages in processing speed and energy efficiency. In temporal coding, synaptic delays are crucial for processing signals with precise...

Influenceof Anti-Agglomerants and Water Cut on FlowAssurance and CO2 Capture in a Model Water-in-Oil Systemfor Maritime Applications

Abstract This study investigated the effects of antiagglomerant (AA) concentration and water cut (WC) on flow assurance within a gas hydrate-based CO2 capture and transport using a model water-in-oil (W/O) system for maritime applications. Phase equilibrium measurements revealed...

Species-specific functions of CSRP3 in satellite cell-driven muscle regeneration and relevance to porcine stem cell therapy

Skeletal muscle function deteriorates with injury, disease, or aging. While stem cell therapies offer therapeutic potential, concerns remain regarding the safety and efficacy of transplanted cells. Satellite cells (SCs), the primary endogenous stem cells responsible for muscle re...
