Therapeutic Apheresis for Intravenous Methylprednisolone‐Refractory Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder: Clinical and Radiological Outcomes in a Single‐Center Case Series

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Infection Control Practices for Vascular Access Management in Hemodialysis: Results From a Nationwide Survey of Japanese National University Hospitals

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Single-Subject Research Design: A Rigorous, Responsive, and Accessible Approach to Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education

Intersection: A Journal at the Intersection of Assessment and Learning
Assessment, evaluation, and research in higher education serve as a means to evaluate and document evidence of educational effectiveness. However, many existing approaches to assessment and evaluation lack rigor in their methodological design, responsiveness to changing student needs, and accessibility to researchers and practitioners with varying ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Global cross-sectional survey on higher education institutions: Analysing the assessment of instrument for evaluating academic expertise on teaching, research and community service [PDF]

Masyarakat, Kebudayaan dan Politik
Globally, the discussion on expertise assessment in higher education institutions has long been a topic in academic literature. However, there is currently no specific measure of academic expertise based on the roles of academics in carrying out their core functions, such as teaching, research, and community service. A recent literature review proposed

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.
