Land Degradation Assessment in an Olive Orchard Using Different Soil Erosion Estimation Methods

Land
Land degradation caused by soil erosion is a major challenge in Mediterranean sloping agroecosystems, where extreme weather events and conventional land management practices accelerate soil loss and threaten long-term sustainability. This study evaluates

DEM simulations: mixing of dry and wet granular material with different contact angles

Granular Matter, 2018
In solid mixing the raw materials typically differ at least in one material property, such as particle size, solid density and wetting properties, which in turn influence particle mobility. For example, smaller particles can percolate through the voids of larger ones under the influence of strain and gravity. This may produce fine particle accumulation

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Volumetric estimation of landslide-induced terrain change using conditional GAN with multi-temporal DEMs and satellite imagery

International Journal of Applied Earth Observations and Geoinformation
Estimating landslide volumes remains challenging because of the limited availability of high-resolution terrain data. Traditional methods often rely on empirical area-to-volume conversion formulas, which introduce significant uncertainties due to terrain

Association Between Individualized Education for Kidney Replacement Therapy Modality Selection and Peritoneal Dialysis Initiation: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.

Effects of Digital Elevation Model Resolution on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Topographic Change Detection in Human-Altered Landscapes

Drones
UAV-based topographic change detection is widely used in geoscience communities. The change detection involves comparison of two digital elevation models (DEMs) produced by UAV surveys, which are affected by the DEM resolution.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
