A Structured Framework for Translation of the ACNS Standardized Critical Care EEG Terminology Into Spanish

Purpose: The American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (ACNS) Critical Care EEG Terminology provides standardized language for describing electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns in critically ill patients but has not been formally translated into Spanish. We aimed to develop a con...

Rigorous Evaluation of Microarchitectural Side-Channels with Statistical Model Checking

Rigorous quantitative evaluation of microarchitectural side channels is challenging for two reasons. First, the processors, attacks, and defenses often exhibit probabilistic behaviors. These probabilistic behaviors arise due to natural noise in systems (e.g., from co-running proc...

Risk of Degenerative Spine Disease, Interventional Spine Procedures and Spine Surgery in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

OBJECTIVES: To determine the association between Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and Degenerative Spine Disease (DSD) and the subsequent utilization of interventional pain (IVP) procedures and spine surgery. DESIGN: A retrospective, active comparator cohort study using TriNetX. Adults wi...

Periprocedural Anesthesia and Analgesia in Hair Transplantation: An Evidence-Based Review of Contemporary Clinical Practice

BACKGROUND Hair transplantation is a widely performed office-based aesthetic procedure characterized by prolonged procedural duration, cumulative local anesthetic exposure, and reliance on sustained patient cooperation. Despite extensive literature on surgical technique and aesth...

What Happens After They Do: How Black Men Experience and Make Meaning of Therapy

Black men continue to experience significant mental health disparities while remaining among the least likely to utilize psychotherapy. Existing scholarship has provided important insights into barriers to treatment and help-seeking among Black men. However, less attention has be...

Thermally Resilient Polymeric Antioxidants that Improve PET Stabilization with Reduced Additive Leaching

Abstract Antioxidants are incorporated into plastics to enhance their resistance to oxidative degradation. With rising concerns of leaching of additives and/or their degradation products into packaged goods and the environment, the development of antioxidants that maintain functi...

Referral processes for cancer clinical trials: a qualitative study of community and academic oncology clinicians

Cancer clinical trials are essential to advancing oncology care, yet participation remains low, particularly among populations served in community oncology settings. Referral from community practices to academic cancer centers is a key pathway to trial access, but referral proces...

An augmented ratingsystem for Test cricket: adapting the Glicko rating system

Abstract The International Cricket Council’s (ICC) rating system for Test cricket updates a team’s rating from match and series results alone. It makes no allowance for the precision of a rating, nor for contextual factors such as home advantage and the outcome of the toss. This...

Latexin deletion in the bone marrow niche suppresses leukemia via LIFR downregulation and immune activation

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common adult leukemia diagnosis. Bone marrow (BM) niche significantly influences the initiation and progression of AML. However, our knowledge about the effect of leukemic niche on leukemia stem cells (LSC) and leukemogenesis is limited. I...

Effects of neurokinin receptor antagonists on sleep disturbance in menopausal women: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Importance: Sleep disturbance is a common and burdensome symptom among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women with moderate to severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS). Although neurokinin (NK) receptor antagonists have demonstrated efficacy for reducing VMS, their effects on sleep distu...

A sensorless wind-aware multimodal feedback framework for human-drone interaction in urban environments

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly applied to urban delivery, infrastructure inspection, and emergency response, yet operation in dense built environments remains difficult because building-induced turbulence introduces invisible aerodynamic disturbances that impair...

CfDNA methylation profiling in blood following moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury using brain cell type–enriched signatures: A pilot study

The human brain consists of diverse cell types that collaboratively perform complex functions and form intricate neuronal networks. When traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs, multiple molecular pathways involving diverse cell types are activated in response to injury. Understandin...

Comparison of Streptococcus mutans growth-phase-dependent transcriptome changes in two different simulated microgravity models

Streptococcus mutans is a cariogenic member of human dental plaque biofilm. Our previous study of S. mutans early stationary-phase rotary cell culture system (RCCS) cultures revealed significant transcriptome changes under low-shear modelled microgravity (LSMMG) compared to norma...

Machine learning and Voronoi-based decision boundaries for Bacterial vaginosis to determine population- specific microbial interactions

In this study we utilize machine learning techniques to create predictive models and determine key bacterial interactions for the diagnosis of Bacterial vaginosis. Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common vaginal syndrome affecting reproductive-age women globally. It is associated wi...

Cosmetic Recontouring And Digital Planning: A Smart Strategy For Aesthetic Transformations

Introduction: Cosmetic recontouring is a relevant technique in aesthetic dentistry, standing out for its conservative approach by correcting imperfections in anterior teeth without the need for significant tooth reduction. Digital planning has further enhanced these treatments, e...

Advances in the Integration of Genomic and Phenomic Tools in Cowpea Breeding for Improving Stress Resilience and Grain Yield and Quality

ABSTRACT Cowpea ( Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) is a multi‐use crop highly valued as a food crop, high‐protein fodder, and sustainable cover crop. Yet, it remains underused, and yields in most growing regions are below the crop's potential due to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses...

Postmortem vitreous chemistry in common bottlenose dolphins: a precision and stability study

Background Postmortem vitreous chemistry is an understudied analytical test in marine mammals.Methods We assessed the analytical precision of pooled common bottlenose dolphin vitreous humor (VH) samples using the Heska Corporation Element DC chemistry analyzer and to examine the...

The impact of irrigation scheduling on aflatoxin risk for peanuts using the CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model

Aflatoxin contamination in peanuts poses an ongoing threat to production and economic value in the United States. Irrigation is a management intervention established for mitigating preharvest aflatoxin levels, but its effect across specific conditions has not been clearly documen...

Evaluation of Antiviral Drugs’ Central Nervous System Distribution Using In Vitro Blood–Brain and Blood-CSF Barrier Models: The Impact of Serum Protein Concentration

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) and blood–cerebrospinal fluid barrier (BCSFB) are dynamic neurovascular interfaces that maintain central nervous system (CNS) homeostasis by tightly regulating paracellular and transcellular molecular transport. Intercellular communication between ad...
