Characterization of the bacterial community composition in water of drinking water production and distribution systems in Flanders, Belgium

MicrobiologyOpen, 2019
The quality of drinking water is influenced by its chemical and microbial composition which in turn may be affected by the source water and the different processes applied in drinking water purification systems.

Cellular Signalling Networks in High Altitude Pulmonary Hypertension: From Canonical Pathways to Emerging Targets

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This review elucidates the intricate cellular signalling networks involved in high‐altitude pulmonary hypertension (HAPH), integrating canonical pathways like HIF, MAPK and BMP with emerging targets such as Wnt/β‐catenin, Notch, Hippo‐YAP and IL‐6. It highlights potential therapeutic strategies targeting these pathways to mitigate vascular remodelling ...

Gross motor performance of infants with an at‐home wearable measurement and the Alberta Infant Motor Scale: A concurrent validity study

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim To evaluate the concurrent validity of assessing infants' gross motor performance with an at‐home wearable measurement versus the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS). Method This observational study used a new multi‐sensor wearable Motor Assessment of Infants with a JUmpsuit (MAIJU) for 67 at‐home measurements of 42 infants (60% males; mean ...

Digital platform strategies from an incumbent perspective: An exploration of contextual factors and connectors

European Management Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐sided platform (MSP) models have become more relevant for incumbent companies, requiring them to develop MSP engagement strategies. This study sheds light on the complex process incumbents undergo in developing platform strategies. Adopting an inductive research design, we conducted interviews with 37 decision‐makers across 35 incumbent ...

Limited roles of the miR‐17‐92 cluster in the regulation of T‐cell apoptosis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The pro‐apoptotic protein BIM shapes T‐cell survival and function, but how it is regulated remains unclear. In a mouse model lacking direct miR‐17‐92:Bim interactions, we observed a moderate reduction in Th17 CD4+ T cells. BIM levels were modestly increased in double‐positive thymocytes and naive CD8+ T cells, but this did not affect overall T‐cell ...

ER proteostasis meets mitochondrial function: contact sites as hubs of communication and therapeutic targets

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteostasis ensures proper protein folding, modification, and degradation, while its impairment triggers ER stress. Chronic ER stress and maladaptive UPR via the CHOP–ERO1 axis remodel ERMCs, altering calcium signaling and mitochondrial metabolism.

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

Determining bismuth content in GaAsBi alloys by energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy: A case study with multiple sets of k*‐factors for analytical transmission electron microscopy

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Measuring the bismuth (Bi) content of ternary gallium arsenide bismuthide (GaAsBi) alloys is important because it sensitively influences their bandgap, and Bi is known to segregate vertically to the surface and sometimes also laterally during growth, so elemental distribution maps need to be quantified.

Is Virtue Good for You?

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Does virtue benefit its possessor, or is it beneficial for others but not the self? We tested two highly influential theories that offer contradictory answers. In particular, we focused on three “hard cases” for the theory that virtue promotes well‐being—that is, three virtues that aren't obviously enjoyable (compassion, patience,

Jugular Journeys: A Novel Approach for AVEIR Leadless Pacemaker Implantation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The jugular approach for Micra leadless pacemaker (LP) implantation offers potential advantages over the femoral route, however data on safety and feasibility for the relatively larger AVEIR LP implantation through the jugular vein is limited.
