Heterogeneity in plasma p‐tau217 response and its association with cognitive trajectories under lecanemab treatment

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract INTRODUCTION Plasma phosphorylated tau 217 (p‐tau217) is a promising biomarker for monitoring treatment response in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its longitudinal dynamics and clinical relevance remain unclear. METHODS In this prospective real‐world study, 153 patients with early AD receiving lecanemab were analyzed.

Mitigating drought stress and enhancing quinoa productivity using iron and zinc nanoparticles

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract In recent years, the cultivation area and consumption of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd) have increased in the country due to its nutritional properties and ability to grow in adverse conditions. Based on climate change scenarios, long periods of drought are expected, which emphasizes the need for planting and developing new plants that are ...

The Effect of Diet Acid Detergent Fiber Content on Finishing Lamb Meat Fatty Acid Composition, Tenderness and Stability

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Increasing the acid detergent fiber (ADF) content in low‐fiber finishing diets altered the fatty acid composition of South African Mutton Merino lamb meat, mainly by increasing α‐linolenic acid, CLA (c9,t11), total n‐3, and PUFA content. Muscle fatty acid composition was less affected than subcutaneous adipose tissue, where higher ADF increased ...

Breeding ecology of the common myna Acridotheres tristis: rural nestlings exhibit enhanced growth compared to urban conspecifics

Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Urbanization alters ecological conditions, yet its impacts on avian reproduction are not fully understood. In many bird species, nestlings growing up in cities tend to have slower growth rates and poorer body conditions than those in rural areas. Using nest boxes, we compared the breeding ecology and nestling growth of the common myna Acridotheres ...

Comparative evaluation of image‐guided radiation therapy (IGRT)‐based dose calculation accuracy using cone‐beam, megavoltage, and kilovoltage CT modalities

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 26, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluates the dosimetric accuracy of three image‐guided radiotherapy (IGRT) imaging modalities, cone‐beam computed tomography (CBCT), megavoltage computed tomography (MVCT), and image‐guided kilovoltage computed tomography (IG‐kVCT), using modality‐specific HU‐to‐density (HU‐D) calibrations.

Fluid Flow at the Top of Jupiter's Dynamo Region

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The magnetic main field (MF) and secular variation (SV) models for Jupiter can be used to gain insights about the internal dynamo and the flow that drives the field. We use two such models computed from Juno observations up to spherical harmonic degrees 16 and 8 for the MF and SV, respectively.
