Enhanced nocturnal N 2 O 5 -ClNO 2 chemistry in Delhi under reduced NO conditions

Nitryl chloride (ClNO 2 ) is an important Cl⚫ precursor, originating from the heterogeneous reactions of dinitrogen pentoxide (N 2 O 5 ) on chloride-containing particles. This N 2 O 5 -ClNO 2 chemical process plays critical roles in chloride activation, nitrate formation, and th...

How digital portfolios become governable: a venture design research study of public sector digital development

Purpose Public sector organizations increasingly struggle to govern digital development in a coherent and strategic manner. This paper aims to examine how governance of digital development can be actively specified through the design of a digital solution, rather than merely supp...

Bone morphogenetic protein 10 and one-year outcomes after open revascularisation in symptomatic peripheral arterial disease or carotid stenosis

Abstract Background Bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10) has atrial-specific and vascular properties and may reflect both atrial and vascular pathophysiology. We investigated whether BMP10 levels were associated with new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF), major adverse cardiovascul...

Profiling proteomic responses in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumor GOT1 after [177Lu]Lu-DOTATATE therapy

Abstract Background Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with [ 177 Lu]Lu-DOTATATE is an established treatment for somatostatin receptor–expressing neuroendocrine tumors. Although strong anti-tumor effects have been demonstrated in experimental models, curative responses in pati...

Does glochidia infestation of the freshwater pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera) affect foraging behavior and growth in brown trout (Salmo trutta)?

Abstract Fish serve as hosts to a wide range of parasites, which can affect them in many ways, including their survival, growth, and foraging behavior. The highly threatened unionid mussels have an ectoparasitic life stage on the gills, skin, or fins of fish. Here, we compared pr...

Site-specific controls predominate over erosion effects on nitrogen turnover: Evidence from 15N tracing in the field

Understanding how nitrogen (N) cycling is affected by soil erosion is essential to optimize N supply for crops and reduce losses in hilly fields. While topography-related impacts on N availability and losses have been studied, the mechanisms linking erosion to N transformation dy...

Sentinel: Resident Autonomous Guardians for Critical Infrastructure — Authority, Partition and the Case Where the Site Is Gone

Critical infrastructure sites in Europe are acquiring permanent robotic residents. Quadruped and wheeled platforms already patrol substations, switchyards and process plants on fixed schedules; aerial systems conduct perimeter and post-event surveys; and the same class of hardwar...

Pica, avoidant restrictive food intake disorder and rumination disorder in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review

Abstract Background Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have an increased risk of co-occurring eating disorders such as pica, avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) and rumination disorder (RD). The aim of the current systematic review was to synthesize and ap...

Diamondiyne: A 3D Carbon Allotrope With Mixed sp–sp 3 Hybridization

ABSTRACT The creation of carbon allotropes is synthetically highly challenging, but their practical significance to science and technology cannot be underestimated. Here, we report the synthesis of a new carbon allotrope, diamondiyne, which is the second known one (after diamond)...

Speech-Language pathologists’ experiences introducing a modified Intensive comprehensive aphasia programme (mICAP) in regular healthcare: a multicentre mixed method study

Background There is limited knowledge of Speech-Language Pathologists’ (SLPs) experiences of delivering modified Intensive Comprehensive Aphasia Programmes (mICAPs) in regular healthcare. While such programmes show clinical promise, their feasibility in routine practice remains u...

Polaritonic Materials: A Comparative Study on the Relaxation Kinetics in Fabry–Perot versus Plasmonic Cavities

ABSTRACT Strong exciton–photon coupling results in the formation of hybrid light–matter states whose relaxation dynamics often experience a bottleneck due to a large manifold of dark states. This bottleneck results in dynamics like those of the uncoupled material, hampering the o...

Hospital at home enables safe and efficient outpatient management of intensively treated acute myeloid leukemia

Abstract Purpose Patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) spend a substantial amount of time in hospital while receiving intensive chemotherapy, affecting their quality of life and healthcare costs. This study evaluated the safety of outpatient management of febrile neutropenia...

CT-RSA with induced displacement used for assessment of aseptic loosening of distal femur reconstructions with megaprostheses in patients reporting pain

Aims: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between experienced pain and findings of suspected pathological movement on CT-radiostereometric analysis (RSA) with induced displacement. Methods: Patients with reported pain after distal femur reconstruction with a me...

Th1 and Th17 Responses to LTB and Colonization Factors Following Oral ETEC Vaccination

T helper cells (Th) are central to mucosal IgA induction and key targets for modulation by vaccine adjuvants. To improve understanding of cellular mechanisms underlying mucosal vaccine-induced immunity, we analyzed antigen-specific peripheral blood Th responses elicited by the or...

Leveraging neural network models for drug repurposing: a case study on cardiac hypertrophy

Abstract Drug repurposing has emerged as an attractive strategy in contemporary pharmaceutical research, presenting an opportunity to expedite drug discovery, minimize developmental costs, and mitigate risks associated with developing new pharmaceuticals. In this study, we invest...

Extensive and differential platinum chemotherapy mutagenesis in livers of children

Childhood cancer survivors often experience late adverse effects that may be linked to chemotherapy mutagenesis. We studied chemotherapy mutagenesis in normal pediatric tissues using duplex sequencing (NanoSeq) to enable the detection of mutations from single DNA molecules. We fo...

The impact of financial shocks on the continued use of clean cooking technologies in Sub-Saharan Africa: evidence from Nigeria

Clean cooking represents an important pathway through which households in Sub-Saharan Africa can contribute to environmental sustainability and improve health outcomes. While previous studies have primarily examined the determinants of initial adoption of clean-cooking technologi...

Respiratory symptoms up to 18 months after COVID-19 – a longitudinal observational study

Abstract Background This study aimed to identify, analyse and compare adults with and without respiratory symptoms over time after COVID-19 and identify predictors of persistent respiratory symptoms, in hospitalised and non-hospitalised patients. Methods Participants were recruit...

Management of Acute Periodontal Conditions—The EFP S2k Level Clinical Practice Guideline

BACKGROUND: The European Federation of Periodontology (EFP) has developed Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) for the treatment of periodontitis and for the management of peri-implant diseases. In accordance with the 2018 Classification, acute periodontal conditions are character...
