Prevalence of Helicobacter pylori Exposure and Risk Factors Among BRCA1 and BRCA2 Carriers

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
BRCA1 and BRCA2 pathogenic germline variant (PGV) carriers may be at increased risk of gastric cancer (GC), especially in the case of prior or active Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. The extent to which Hp influences BRCA1 and BRCA2‐associated GC remains uncertain. Here, the authors evaluated plasma samples from a U.S. cohort of BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2,

Smart Sensor‐Integrated Lysimeter System for Affordable on‐Farm Crop Water Monitoring and Irrigation Management

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate monitoring of crop water use is critical for precision irrigation, yet conventional lysimeter systems remain too costly and complex for widespread adoption. This study presents the development and field validation of a low‐cost, information and communication technology (ICT)‐enabled weighing lysimeter system that integrates load cells,
