Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), initially developed for type 2 diabetes management and later expanded to obesity treatment, have shown preliminary efficacy in reducing binge eating episodes. However, the appetite-suppressing and weight-loss effects of GLP-1R...

Nanoparticle Shape-Templated Peptide Organization Enables Tunable Enhancement of Enzyme Activity
Abstract Biological systems often regulate catalysis by organizing enzymes within dense, multivalent, and nanostructured environments. Nanomaterials can recreate selected features of these environments, but their effects on enzymes range from inhibition to activity enhancement de...

ABSTRACT Traditional fluorogenic and cell‐permeable molecular probes for live‐cell nanoscopy mainly rely on structural or hydrophilicity changes to generate intracellular fluorescence signals. Here, we introduce molecular machines into fluorogenic probe design. As a proof of conc...

The simultaneous determination of non-metal elements in whole blood remains analytically challenging because of the complex biological matrix and the wide concentration range. This study describes a simple microwave-assisted alkaline extraction method for the determination of bor...

BACKGROUND: The prognostic significance of body weight in patients receiving thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke remains uncertain. This study aimed to determine whether body weight modifies the comparative effects of low- versus standard-dose intravenous alteplase and to eval...

Background Sexual dysfunction represents a meaningful yet understudied complication of spine surgery, with substantial implications for quality of life. Differences in surgical exposure between anterior and posterior approaches may influence these outcomes through variation in an...

From timekeeping to divisions—Molecular links between circadian rhythms and cell cycle
Circadian rhythms and the cell cycle are two fundamental biological oscillators. They are linked through molecular mechanisms creating coupled oscillators where the outcomes of this coupling depend on numerous factors, such as the directionality of coupling (i.e., unidirectional...

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces pulmonary fibrosis by increasing microvascular permeability and inducing severe inflammation and extracellular matrix accumulation. Mechanical ventilation (MV), although life-sustaining, can increase inflammatory cytokine production, oxidative str...

Abstract Electrochemical oxidation is typically regarded as incompatible with hydrogen intermediate formation, particularly at highly positive potentials where surface hydrogen species are expected to be rapidly oxidized. Formaldehyde oxidation reaction (FOR) on palladium represe...

Another regularizing property of the 2D eikonal equation
A weak solution of the two-dimensional eikonal equation amounts to a vector field m:Ω⊂R2→R2 such that |m|=1 a.e. and divm=0 in D′(Ω). It is known that, if m has some low regularity, e.g., continuous or W1/3,3, then m is automatically more regular: locally Lipschitz outside a loca...

Spinal interoceptive pathways as therapeutic targets in depression
Interoception is commonly defined as the process by which the nervous system senses, interprets and integrates signals from the body. Converging theoretical frameworks propose that signals about bodily states are conveyed by spinal interoceptive pathways (SIPs) to a distributed i...

Risk factors for acute care transfers (ACTs) from inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRFs) vary by setting and patient population. Prior risk prediction models designed to apply to all IRF patients in an IRF have achieved poor to acceptable predictive value, while better perfor...

ABSTRACT Introduction Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common pediatric muscular dystrophy. Typically, there is a ~ 2‐year delay between symptom onset and diagnosis. Limited data on outcomes in early‐diagnosed individuals have limited the understanding of the clinica...

ABSTRACT For millennia, human activities have transformed ecosystems globally. Determining which landscapes are predominantly anthropogenic is crucial to conservation and habitat restoration. Madagascar, a critically‐threatened biodiversity hotspot, is a prominent example. Curren...

Do Autistic Adolescents Talk Differently in Same-Sex Versus Mixed-Sex Conversations?
Autistic individuals often struggle with social communication, but the nature of each person’s difficulties varies substantially by context. Recent conversation-based research suggests that males and females (autistic and nonautistic) produce subtle but consistent differences in...

A Causal Model for Prehospital Blood Transfusion and Mortality in Traumatic Hemorrhagic Shock
OBJECTIVES Utilization of prehospital blood transfusion (PBT) as a treatment for traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) has been expanding nationally, yet evidence supporting the practice in some operational environments remains limited. Development of strong scientific evidence to su...

A Systematic Replication: Instructive Feedback to Produce Emerging Play Responses
Abstract Social deficits are common in children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). To help facilitate the development of social behaviors, practitioners may target specific play skills, such as with toys. Previous researchers have used discrete trial training (DTT) to...

Sequential loss of bracing support represents a critical risk scenario in deep excavations, yet its interaction with inherent soil spatial variability and its impact on excavation system reliability have not been systematically quantified. This study proposes a probabilistic fram...
