Inflammation and autoimmunity are interrelated in patients with sickle cell disease at a steady-state condition: implications for vaso-occlusive crisis, pain, and sensory sensitivity

Frontiers in Immunology
This study aimed to comprehensively analyze inflammatory and autoimmune characteristics of patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) at a steady-state condition (StSt) compared to healthy controls (HCs) to explore the pathogenesis of StSt and its impact on

Why do contracts differ between VC types? : market segmentation versus corporate governance varieties [PDF]

, 2006
We model the impact of bank mergers on loan competition, reserve holdings and aggregate liquidity. A merger changes the distribution of liquidity shocks and creates an internal money market, leading to financial cost efficiencies and more precise ...

Preferences of Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers for Chemotherapy‐Induced Nausea and Vomiting Control Endpoints: A Mixed Methods Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Although not always achieved, complete chemotherapy‐induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) control is the conventional goal of CINV prophylaxis. In this two‐center, mixed‐methods study, we sought to understand the preferences of adolescent patients and family caregivers for CINV control endpoints.

Octupolar AIEgens Photosensitizers With Enhanced Molar Absorptivity for Near‐Infrared Phototheranostics

Aggregate
High molar absorption coefficients (ε) in the near‐infrared (NIR) region are critical for maximizing light‐harvesting efficiency, enabling deep‐tissue penetration, and enhancing reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in phototheranostics.

Effects of Straw Return Mode on Soil Aggregates and Associated Carbon in the North China Plain

Agronomy, 2020
Crop straw is widely used to manage soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration as an environmentally friendly practice in the North China Plain. However, little is known about the effects of straw returning modes on SOC sequestration in this region. Thus, a

Intravitreal GD2‐Specific Chimeric Antigen Receptor T‐Cell Therapy for Refractory Retinoblastoma

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective treatments for advanced, treatment‐resistant retinoblastoma (RB) remain limited. GD2‐specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells show potent antitumor activity with minimal toxicity but have not previously been evaluated in RB.
