Head &Neck, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic dysphagia persists in some head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors despite preventive exercises, negatively impacting quality of life. Evidence for effective rehabilitation strategies remains limited. Methods This prospective cohort study included 34 HNC survivors (≥ 1 year post‐treatment) who completed a 3‐week intensive ...

Towards the elimination of infectious endogenous Banana streak virus sequences from Musa balbisiana [PDF]
, 2011 Infectious endogenous sequences of several Banana streak virus species are present in the genome of Musa balbisiana spp, which are important progenitors for breeding improved banana varieties. Once activated by biotic or abiotic stresses, these sequences

Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.Breakdown of chlorophyll (Chl) is a fundamental biological phenomenon. In de‐greening banana leaves, Chl is transformed into colorless “fluorescent” Chl‐catabolites (FCCs) that cause the leaves to luminesce blue. Hypothesis‐driven search for apolar banana‐FCCs, and structure elucidation, have revealed a striking first link between lipid metabolism and ...

Integrated virus and infection risk: does the banana streak virus (bsv) threat the banana culture? [Poster-P242] [PDF]
, 2018 Cultivated bananas mainly stem from intra- and interspecific crosses between two species: Musa acuminata (A genome) and Musa balbisiana (B genome). The B genome harbors viral sequences of Banana streak virus (BSV), inducing the banana streak disease and ...

, 2014 BAR superfamily proteins have a banana-shaped domain that causes the local bending of lipid membranes. We study as to how such a local anisotropic curvature induces effective interaction between proteins and changes the global shape of vesicles and ...

Similarity and substitution: Using pile sorting methods to explore economic behavior
Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.Abstract Despite the common intuition that similar products are stronger demand substitutes, this study shows a more nuanced relationship between perceived similarity and utility substitution. Using pile sorting, a method where items are sorted into groups according to their similarity, we conduct large‐scale consumer surveys on purchasing 21 foods for
