Length of the Adult Human Colon in Health and Constipation Measured Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Colon length was measured in adult healthy volunteers, people with chronic constipation, and people with IBS with constipation using MRI. Colon length is significantly longer in chronic constipation. The chronically constipated colon is unable to accommodate longitudinally in response to fluid influx from a macrogol challenge.

Effect of Linaclotide on Colonic Motility Assessed With Intraluminal Colonic High‐Resolution Manometry in Healthy Subjects. An Acute, Open Label, Randomized, Crossover, Reader‐Blinded Study

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Our study showed that, in healthy controls, acute administration of linaclotide increased the total number of long‐distance propagating and the pre‐prandial pancolonic pressurizations. Further studies need to address whether the observed effects are directly or indirectly mediated by the mechanism of action of this useful medication to treat chronic ...

Laws and Reasons Why

Analytic Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Laws play some role in explanations: at the very least, they somehow connect what is explained, or the explanandum, to what explains, or the explanans. Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...

Calcium‐activated chloride channels in pericytes and their role in regulating organ blood flow

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Pericytes are microvascular mural cells with diverse roles. Contractile pericytes directly regulate local perfusion, while non‐contractile pericytes coordinate upstream vascular contractility via propagating electrical signals.

TMEM16A chloride channels in the female reproductive tract and their role in normal and dysfunctional pregnancy and labour

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend TMEM16A plays a pivotal role in setting the duration of the action potential plateau in human uterine smooth muscle. An increase in TMEM16A expression in labour underpins a lengthening of the plateau and this provides time for the contraction to become larger and longer, important for timely successful labour.

Prepackaged Low‐Residue Diet “Clear‐Through” Reduces the Required Volume of Polyethylene Glycol Solution for Colonoscopy Preparation: An Exploratory Randomized Controlled Study

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Large volumes of polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution reduce patient acceptance of colonoscopy. A prepackaged low‐residue diet (PLRD; Clear‐Through) may improve bowel cleansing and allow further PEG reduction. This exploratory randomized study evaluated whether PLRD permits decreased PEG with ascorbic acid (PEG‐Asc) volume while ...

On the additive image of zeroth persistent homology

Transactions of the London Mathematical Society, Volume 13, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract For a category X$X$ and a finite field F$F$, we study the additive image of the functor H0(−;F)∗:rep(X,Top)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{H}_0(-;F)_* \colon \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Top}) \rightarrow \operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Vect}_F)$, or equivalently, of the free functor rep(X,Set)→rep(X,VectF)$\operatorname{rep}(X, \mathbf {Set ...

Metabolome analysis identified exogenous cholesterol within lipid rafts that activate the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in epithelial ovarian cancer

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 159, Issue 1, Page 257-268, 1 July 2026.
What's New? Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a severe malignancy with few effective treatment options. While the mechanisms remain unclear, changes in lipid metabolism may fuel tumor growth and EOC progression, offering a possible path for new treatments.
