Multiple origins of anaerobic ciliates with hydrogenosomes within the radiation of aerobic ciliates
Some ciliates live anaerobically and lack mitochondria, but possess hydrogenosomes: organelles that contain hydrogenase and produce hydrogen. The origin of hydrogenosomes has been explained by two competing hypotheses: (i) they are biochemically modified

Programmed Genome Processing in Ciliates
The ciliates are a group of protists distinguished by the hair-like cilia on their cell surfaces. Ciliates also possess two types of nuclei, a germline micronucleus and a somatic macronucleus.

A Novel Slit Lamp‐Based System for 3D Ultrasound of the Eye
Objectives This study aims to develop and evaluate a novel slit‐lamp‐based system to acquire 3‐dimensional (3D) ultrasound volumes using conventional ultrasound probes. Methods A slit‐lamp adapter was 3D printed and connected with a linear actuator and graphical user interface (GUI) system to control movement and create volumes of 2‐dimensional scans ...

Radiotherapy‐Induced Otitis Media With Effusion in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma: A Meta‐Analysis
This meta‐analysis of eight studies comprising 582 NPC patients provides the first quantitative synthesis of radiotherapy‐induced otitis media with effusion (OME), demonstrating a significant overall risk difference of 0.18 (95% CI: −0.06 to 0.42, p < 0.0001) in OME naive ears.

Advances in GPCRs Associated With Wnt Signaling Within the Auditory System
ABSTRACT G protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) that interact with the Wnt signaling pathway are pivotal for auditory system homeostasis, as they orchestrate inner ear development, hair cell (HC) regeneration, and hearing preservation. Frizzled (FZD) receptors, the core Wnt‐related GPCRs, bind Wnt ligands and co‐receptors (e.g., LRP5/6) to activate both ...
