Abstract Background and aims Amid ongoing debate on whether low‐to‐moderate alcohol consumption reduces cardiovascular risk, studies examining the association between alcohol consumption and cognitive function have reported inconsistent results. To quantitatively assess this association, we conducted a dose–response meta‐analysis of cohort studies ...

Determinants of Immunoglobulin‐G N‐Glycan Patterns in the Aging General Population
The effect of demographic and lifestyle factors on IgG N‐glycosylation, which determines IgG's inflammatory response, remains poorly characterized. Aging, higher BMI, female sex, smoking, and heavy alcohol consumption are determinants of IgG N‐glycome patterns, which are indicative of inflammation. Women exhibit a distinct change in IgG N‐glycosylation

Summary Introduction Difficult facemask ventilation is an entity that lacks a robust definition, leading to inconsistent identification in clinical practice and research. The aim of this study was to develop and validate an objective classification and numeric score for difficult facemask ventilation. Methods Four hundred patients who required tracheal

ABSTRACT Introduction Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. Combining surfactant with budesonide has been proposed to prevent BPD, but results from existing randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are conflicting.

Summary The socioeconomic inequality in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) survival may be driven by differential access to intensive chemotherapy (ICT). We aimed to quantify socioeconomic inequality in the receipt of ICT among patients with AML in England and identify its key drivers. We evaluated 10 495 patients with de novo AML identified in the national

Long‐term quality of life in patients with bladder cancer following radical cystectomy
Objectives To investigate changes in quality of life (QoL) up to 8 years after radical cystectomy (RC) and compare QoL after RC with a gender‐ and age‐matched Dutch normative population. Furthermore, we aimed to identify patient characteristics associated with QoL and QoL trajectories after RC.

3D Character Reconstruction from Hand‐drawn Model Sheets
Abstract Hand‐drawn model sheets are widely used in character design to define 3D shape and appearance through sparse multi‐view drawings. Reconstructing 3D characters from such sparse inputs has traditionally been challenging due to insufficient visual information.

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.
