Maintaining egg freshness in the absence of refrigeration: The potential of zero‐energy cooling pots

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Egg storage in regions with unreliable electricity is challenging, leading to rapid quality deterioration and postharvest losses. This study evaluated the efficacy of a Zero‐Energy Cooling (ZEC) pot, an evaporative cooling technology, for preserving table egg quality in comparison to conventional refrigeration and ambient storage ...

Adaptive gradient scaling: integrating Adam and landscape modification for protein structure prediction

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics
Background Protein structure prediction is one of the most important scientific problems, on the one hand, it is one of the NP-hard problems, and on the other hand, it has a wide range of applications including drug discovery and biotechnology ...

At‐Home Versus in‐Clinic Vital Capacity Measurement: Insights From the HEALEY ALS Platform Trial

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Respiratory weakness, typically monitored as vital capacity (VC), is a central feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). VC is increasingly measured remotely in participants' homes, although in‐clinic assessment remains the standard.

Weight Loss Intentionality and Strategies in Urinary Incontinence

open access: yesNeurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Urinary incontinence (UI)−including stress (SUI), urge (UUI), and mixed (MUI) subtypes−is associated with obesity, and weight loss is commonly recommended for intervention. However, the comparative effects of intentionality and weight loss strategies on UI severity remain poorly defined.

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

Functional Repurposing of Magnetic Nanoparticle‐Assisted Hyperthermia for Immune Cell Labelling and Tracking

open access: yesSmall Methods, EarlyView.
We propose mild‐MHT protocol for the quick internalization of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) by immune cells. The heat induced by MNPs under alternating magnetic field stimulate MNPs diffusion and cell membrane invagination, accelerating the cellular internalization of MNPs. ABSTRACT Immune cell therapies show promise in hematologic malignancies and are

Dietary differentiation of two co‐occurring common bat species (Eptesicus nilssonii and Pipistrellus pygmaeus)

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Sympatric bat species can co‐exist and avoid interspecific competition via niche differentiation e.g. diet. Detecting dietary differences can be achieved by comparing dietary niches of sympatric and allopatric populations. If dietary overlap is higher in sympatry versus allopatry, co‐occurrence may be altering the dietary niche of the species.

Diet, phenology and body size shape nutrient release by songbirds

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Animals can dramatically alter ecosystem structure and function through the cycling and transport of nutrients in their waste. While birds are particularly capable of influencing nutrient cycles due to their high mobility, abundance, metabolism and functional diversity,

Adipokines in Obese Asthma: A Complex Relationship Influenced More by Sex, Weight, and Oral Steroid Treatment Than Disease Severity

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Adipokine secretion from adipose tissue may be involved in obesity‐related asthma, but it is unknown how adipokine levels relate to asthma characteristics. Plasma adipokines were measured in well‐characterized lean, overweight or obese patients with mild‐to‐moderate or severe asthma.
