Enhanced Low Dose Rate Sensitivity at Ultra-Low Dose Rates [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 2011 We present results on the effects of ELDRS at dose rates of 10, 5, 1, and 0.5 mrad(Si)/s for a variety of commercial, radiation hardened, and ELDRS-free devices. We observed low dose rate enhancement below 10 mrad(Si)/s in several different part types. The magnitudes of the low dose rate enhancement varied substantially.

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.

Contrast enhancement of Micro Dose X-ray images [PDF]
2014 IEEE 11th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2014 A multi-scale (MS) decomposition method for contrast enhancement of Micro Dose (MD) X-ray images is presented in this paper. First, we get a denoised version of the input exploiting a non-local means Þlter with adaptable parameters setting that we deÞned in a former approach.

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.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

European Radiology Experimental, 2019 Background Myocardial perfusion measurement with a low-dose first-pass analysis (FPA) dynamic computed tomography (CT) perfusion technique depends upon acquisition of two whole-heart volume scans at the base and peak of the aortic enhancement. Hence, the

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
