Predictive Ability of Plasma p‐tau217 for β‐Amyloid Status: A Prospective Multicenter Study
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 217 (p‐tau217) measured with fully automated platforms has shown high accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but real‐world multicenter data remain limited. We aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of p‐tau217 for identifying AD pathology in a real‐world multicenter cohort ...

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Compression Ratio as Picture-Wise Just Noticeable Difference Predictor
This paper presents the interesting results of applying compression ratio (CR) in the prediction of the boundary between visually lossless and visually lossy compression, which is of particular importance in perceptual image compression.

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Mechanical Properties of Compressed Wood in Accordance with the Compression Ratio
本研究では圧縮木材を構造用接合具として使用することを意図し,様々な圧縮率のスギの圧縮木材を用いて,各種力学特性値の密度との関係を調べた。非圧縮材料の物性値を元にした基準化を行うことで,材質向上の傾向を明らかにするとともに,圧密の過程に伴う細胞の変形モデルと比較することで,定性的な説明を行った。結果,縦圧縮・引張および曲げ特性値は密度に比例したが,せん断特性はLR面とLT面でそれぞれ異なった。LT面横圧縮特性は弾性率,強度ともに密度上昇率に対し約2乗に比例して増大した一方,LR方向のそれは早材細胞が完全に圧密細胞に変わる圧縮率程度まではあまり変化無く,それ以降に急激に上昇する結果が得られた。これらの傾向をハニカムセルの変形を考慮する事でモデル化し,元材料の力学特性値と圧縮率 ...

Autoimmune Comorbidities as Modifiers of Phenotypic Heterogeneity in Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1) shows clinical heterogeneity that is only partly explained by D4Z4 repeat unit (RU) size. Although immune and inflammatory mechanisms may contribute to disease variability, the prevalence and clinical impact of autoimmune diseases in FSHD remain unclear.
