Cognitive Dysfunction in Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Scoping Review

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cognitive dysfunction is increasingly recognized as an extra‐nasal manifestation of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This scoping review characterizes the primary evidence on cognition in adult CRS, covering measures, treatment response, and incident dementia.

Silk Fibroin for Cardiovascular Medical Devices: Review of Material Properties, Applications, and Clinical Potential

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Silk fibroin is an attractive natural biomaterial that can be engineered into diverse cardiovascular constructs, including vascular grafts, cardiac patches, heart valves, and stent coatings. Its tunable biological and mechanical properties have driven substantial preclinical progress; however, widespread clinical translation in cardiovascular ...

The influence of explicit phonetic instruction on pronunciation teaching in EFL settings: the case of English vowels and Japanese learners of English

open access: yes, 2007
Japanese learners of English have difficulty in learning English pronunciation, especially in segmental phonology, because they have to learn many phonemes that do not exist in Japanese but do exist in English.

Glutaredoxins Rapidly Reduce Glutathione Hydroper‐ and Polysulfides

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Glutaredoxins (Grx) rapidly reduce glutathione polysulfides (GSSnSG) to glutathione hydroper/polysulfides (GSSnH) or GSSnH to hydrogen (poly)sulfides (H2Sn). Reduction of glutathionylated glutaredoxins by reduced glutathione (GSH) yields glutathione disulfide (GSSG).

Annatto‐Derived Carotenoids (Bixin and Norbixin) As Biodiesel Antioxidants: Characterization and Effects on Oxidative Stability (Rancimat and PetroOXY)

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
Annatto‐derived bixin and norbixin were characterized and evaluated as natural antioxidants for soybean biodiesel. Their antioxidant performance and effects on oxidative stability were assessed using DPPH, Rancimat, and PetroOXY methods. ABSTRACT The increasing use of eco‐friendly fuels is increasing the production of biodiesel but soybean biodiesel is

Polymer‐Based Probabilistic Bits for Thermodynamic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Electropolymerized conjugated polymers function as intrinsic entropy sources for probabilistic computing. Thermally driven conformational fluctuations of pendant triphenylamine groups produce stochastic resistance dynamics that are transduced into voltage‐gated probabilistic bits following logistic transfer functions identical to those of stochastic ...

Previously undocumented regional variability in crab‐eating macaque skull sexual dimorphism and its implications for biological and morphometric studies

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract In a large sample of adult crab‐eating macaques, we quantified sexual dimorphism in size, shape, and covariance across the whole skull and among anatomical regions of the cranium and mandible. All regions showed significant mean sex differences, but the magnitude of size and shape dimorphism varied substantially.

Segmental composition and nerve distribution of the brachial plexus in Galictis cuja

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Galictis cuja is a neotropical mustelid with terrestrial locomotor habits, yet the anatomy of its brachial plexus has remained undescribed. This study characterizes the origin, organization, and distribution of the brachial plexus nerves in 15 adult specimens (30 antimeres).
