Misperception of Body Weight After Childhood Cancer

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Misperception of body weight can negatively impact the weight management efforts of childhood cancer survivors (CCSs). Both being overweight or underweight are associated with chronic health conditions commonly observed in CCS; therefore, accurate weight perception is critical for reducing long‐term health risks.

Illusion and Illusoriness of Color and Coloration [PDF]

Journal of Imaging, 2018
In this work, through a phenomenological analysis, we studied the perception of the chromatic illusion and illusoriness. The necessary condition for an illusion to occur is the discovery of a mismatch/disagreement between the geometrical/physical domain and the phenomenal one.

Mapping Childhood Cancer Care Services in Oceania: Methodological Lessons From the SIOP Global Mapping Programme

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The International Paediatric Oncology Society Global Mapping Programme aims to collect data on global paediatric oncology services by continent, with Africa and Latin America completed. This study reports on the methodology and lessons learned for Oceania, a unique continent with resource disparity across countries, multiple small island ...

Development and Implementation of a Disease‐Targeted Storybook as a Clinical Tool for Children With Acute Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although significant progress has been made in childhood leukemia survival, healthcare providers, and caregivers often face challenges in explaining this disease to patients. Disease‐targeted storybooks have been proposed as a tool to facilitate the understanding of diagnoses and treatment.

Influência do conteúdo de umidade de colheita e temperatura de secagem na qualidade do feijão Influence of the harvest moisture content and of the drying temperature upon the bean quality

Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2006
Apesar dos avanços, a produção brasileira de feijão sofre perdas consideráveis, até chegar ao consumidor, razão por que se objetivou, com este trabalho, avaliar a qualidade do feijão colhido com diferentes conteúdos de água e secados em diferentes ...

Mito‐nuclear discordance at a mimicry color transition zone in bumble bee Bombus melanopygus

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
As hybrid zones exhibit selective patterns of gene flow between otherwise distinct lineages, they can be especially valuable for informing processes of microevolution and speciation.

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

FEBS 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.

Proximate causes of the red face of the bald uakari monkey (Cacajao calvus) [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2015
In social species, such as primates, facial appearances transmit a variety of social signals. Although it is suggested that the intense red colour of the face of the bald uakari monkey might be an indicator of health, this hypothesis still has not been ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
