Comprehensive Endoscopic Management of Superficial Pharyngeal Cancer – From Detection and Diagnosis to Treatment and Surveillance

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Traditionally, pharyngeal cancer was detected at an advanced stage, as examinations were usually performed only after symptoms such as pain or dysphagia appeared. Consequently, it was considered a malignancy with a poor prognosis. However, recent advances in image‐enhanced endoscopy (IEE) have facilitated the early detection of superficial ...

Impacts of Extreme Ultraviolet Late Phase of the Solar Flare on Ionospheric Electrodynamics

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Previous investigations of ionospheric electrodynamical responses to solar flares primarily focused on the main phases (MPs) of solar flares. Typical solar irradiance models for driving global ionosphere models do not include the extreme ultraviolet (EUV)

From Redox Imbalance to Tissue Injury: Insights Into Antidepressant Drug Amitriptyline Effects on Salivary Glands

Cell Biochemistry and Function, Volume 44, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the effects of amitriptyline administration on the salivary glands and saliva of rats. Twenty‐eight male Wistar rats (60 days old) were divided into two groups (n = 14 per group): control and amitriptyline‐treated (10 mg/kg/day for 30 days).

Casein kinase 1δ/ε inhibition suppresses CLL proliferation through cell‐intrinsic and microenvironmental mechanisms

HemaSphere, Volume 10, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a consequence of pathological B‐cell accumulation in blood and lymphoid organs. Due to high refractoriness, CLL is still incurable in many cases; therefore, there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutic options.

The Multidimensional Nature of Semantic Transparency in a Cross‐Linguistic Perspective: Evidence From Human Intuitions, Computational Estimates, and Processing Data for Chinese Compounds

Cognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Semantic transparency is a key construct for understanding how complex words are represented and processed, yet it has been conceptualized and operationalized in diverse ways across studies. In this study, we validate whether semantic transparency exhibits multidimensional properties across different measures in Mandarin Chinese.
