To evaluate the antenatal umbilical coiling index in second trimester of gestation by sonography and postnatal umbilical coiling index in relation to pregnancy outcome [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Clinical Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2020
Background: The umbilical cord extends from the fetal umbilicus to the fetal surface of the placenta. Its diameter is 0.8 to 2.0 cm, with an average length of 55 cm and a range of 30 to 100cm. The umbilical cord is the life line of fetus as it supplies water, nutrients and oxygen.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

What, if anything, is a Paratrochamminoides? A key to the morphology of the Cretaceous to Cenozoic species of Conglophragmium and Paratrochamminoides (Foraminifera) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a review of the current taxonomical status of the genus Paratrochamminoides Soliman, 1972. We recognise five main subgroups of this genus based upon the following modes of coiling: trochospiral, streptospiral, glomospiral, triloculine or ...

Taxonomy and biostratigraphy of new and emended species of Cenozoic deep-water agglutinated foraminifera from the Labrador and North Seas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Deep marine, fine grained sedimentary strata of Maastrichtian through Miocene age in the Labrador and North Sea sedimentary basins are rich in agglutinated benthic foraminifera.

Measurement of a Broadband Negative Index with Space-Coiling Acoustic Metamaterials

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2013
We report the experimental demonstration of broadband negative refractive index obtained in a labyrinthine acoustic metamaterial structure. Two different approaches were employed to prove the metamaterial negative index nature: one-dimensional extractions of effective parameters from reflection and transmission measurements, and two-dimensional prism ...

Point--TAR: A Useful Index to Follow-Up Coiled Intracranial Aneurysms? [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology, 2014
The Matrix and Platinum Science (MAPS) trial results were recently published showing that Matrix2 coils were not inferior (and not superior) to bare metal coils (BMC) in the treatment of ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms.[1][1] In the trial, 626 patients were enrolled in ...

Umbilical cord coiling index as a marker of perinatal outcome

open access: yesIndian Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology Research, 2021
The umbilical cord is very important for the well-being and survival of the fetus, however this is susceptible to compressions, kinking, traction and torsion which may influence the perinatal outcome and an abnormal umbilical coiling index has been related to adverse fetal and pregnancy outcomes.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Generalized analytic model for rotational and anisotropic metasolids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
An analytical approach is presented to model a metasolid accounting for anisotropic effects and rotational mode. The metasolid is made of either cylindrical or spherical hard inclusions embedded in a stiff matrix via soft claddings, and the analytical ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
