PrEP at the site of action in cisgender and transgender women: A pharmacology study of blood and rectal CD4+ lymphocytes

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background Female sex hormones used in feminizing hormone therapy (FHT) may influence activation and persistence of HIV pre‐exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) medications. The clinical relevance of this interaction remains unclear, particularly for transgender and cisgender women (TGW and CGW).

Fast and Robust Diffusion Posterior Sampling for MR Image Reconstruction Using the Preconditioned Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose The Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (ULA) in combination with diffusion models can generate high quality MRI reconstructions with uncertainty estimation from highly undersampled k‐space data. However, sampling methods such as diffusion posterior sampling (DPS) or likelihood annealing suffer from long reconstruction times and the need for

Self-Driven Sustainable Oil Separation from Water Surfaces by Biomimetic Adsorbing and Transporting Materials

Separations, 2023
Oil films on water are an increasingly major contamination problem worldwide. In 2020, we published a novel adsorption and transportation technology for oil–water separation based on biological role models like the floating fern Salvinia.

Bio-Inspired Textiles for Self-Driven Oil–Water Separation—A Simulative Analysis of Fluid Transport

Biomimetics
In addition to water repellency, superhydrophobic leaves of plants such as Salvinia molesta adsorb oil and separate it from water surfaces. This phenomenon has been the inspiration for a new method of oil–water separation, the bionic oil adsorber (BOA ...

Inter-Dye Distance Distributions Studied by a Combination of Single-Molecule FRET-Filtered Lifetime Measurements and a Weighted Accessible Volume (wAV) Algorithm

Molecules, 2014
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is an important tool for studying the structural and dynamical properties of biomolecules. The fact that both the internal dynamics of the biomolecule and the movements of the biomolecule-attached dyes can occur ...

Estimation of Ascaris infection risks in children under 15 from the consumption of wastewater-irrigated carrots [PDF]

, 2009
Ascaris lumbricoides, the large human roundworm, infects ,1,200 million people, with children under the age of 15 being particularly at risk. Monte Carlo quantitative microbial risk analyses were undertaken to estimate median Ascaris infection risks in

ENTANGLED PUBLIC ESSENTIALS: Female Perspectives on Public Toilets in Portugal and How to Propel Change

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Women living in more affluent urban contexts have poor access to sanitary infrastructures owing to a lack of female public toilets. Existing toilets are often poorly maintained, and their design does not suit women’s daily needs. In this essay I use a mixed‐methods approach that combines the analysis of documents and secondary sources with the

Promoting Methane Reductions Through Behavioural Nudges and Informational Boosts: A Field Choice Experiment in Japanese Rice Farming

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Agricultural methane emissions represent a significant contributor to global climate change, with irrigated rice cultivation being one of the primary sources. Despite the availability of effective mitigation technologies, their adoption often remains limited due to behavioural and institutional constraints.
