Narrow band imaging‐guided diode laser ablation in recurrent low‐grade non‐muscle‐invasive bladder cancer

open access: yesUroPrecision, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Low‐grade non‐muscle‐invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) is characterized by high recurrence rates, resulting in repeated interventions and intensive surveillance. Office‐based transurethral laser ablation (TULA) performed under local anesthesia is a minimally invasive alternative to transurethral resection, and narrow band imaging (NBI)

Progressive Colour Equalisation and Detail Refinement for Underwater Image Enhancement

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater image enhancement remains a critical challenge in computational vision due to complex distortions caused by wavelength‐dependent light absorption and scattering. This paper introduces CEDFNet, a novel two‐stage framework that leverages advanced computational intelligence techniques for robust and high‐fidelity underwater image ...

Using thermal death time models to analyze cold stress resistance across Drosophila species

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Chill susceptible insects such as Drosophila are vulnerable to progressive disruption of homeostasis during cold stress, and low‐temperature exposure is a key factor affecting their physiology and distribution.

Multi-stage subunit vaccines against Mycobacterium tuberculosis: an alternative to the BCG vaccine or a BCG-prime boost?

open access: yesExpert Review of Vaccines, 2018
Introduction: More than two billion people are latently infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Most tuberculosis (TB)-subunit vaccines currently in various stages of clinical trials are designed for prevention of active TB, but not to prevent ...

Challenging Business Schools Through Subversive Performativity: The Potential of Art‐based Pedagogies

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Business schools are often criticized for reproducing growth‐oriented norms, but alternative pedagogies remain difficult to normalize. Drawing on Butler's theory of subversive performativity, this study examines how art‐based pedagogy enables academics to challenge growth logics in business schools by transforming their identities over time ...

BCG-INDUCED PRO-INFLAMMATORY PHENOTYPE OF MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS: EFFECT OF IMMUNE MODULATORS

open access: yesТуберкулез и болезни лёгких, 2016
In case of mycobacterial infection the granulomatous infiltration foci contain the significant amount of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), which functional phenotype and respective function in anti-tuberculosis immune defense remain unknown.Goal of the study:

Learning the Ropes of Strategy: How Ambiguity Shapes Role Transitions in Problem‐based Strategy Education

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Strategy education has faced enduring criticism over the last decades. Experiential approaches like problem‐based learning offer a promising pathway for strategy education by immersing students in the ambiguities of strategy work. Following Merton, we argue that experiential learning in higher education is not just about the acquisition of ...

Sensory Biology of the Franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei, Pontoporiidae, Cetartiodactyla): Ontogenetic Modifications of Vibrissae and Vibrissal Crypts

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...
