Application of Cell‐Free DNA Barcode‐Enabled Single‐Molecule Test for Non‐Invasive Prenatal Testing of α‐Thalassemia and β‐Thalassemia

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, Volume 40, Issue 16, August 2026.
We evaluated the cfBEST assay for non‐invasive prenatal testing of α‐ and β‐thalassemia in 72 families. The assay correctly identified 88 of 93 fetal alleles, achieving an overall accuracy of 94.6%, a sensitivity of 94%, and a specificity of 95.35%, with 100% concordance with postnatal follow‐up.

Emigration and tobacco smoking among those staying behind

Journal of Migration and Health
High or growing rates of smoking tobacco and high rates of emigration are salient features of many low- and middle-income countries, yet the links between migration and smoking remain underexplored.

‘…It Makes It Possible for Me to Have a Life…’: Microtransformative Helpline Communication with Frequent Users

Journal of Community Psychology, Volume 54, Issue 5, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Frequent use of anonymous helplines is often framed as problematic from a service perspective. This study aims to explore how frequent users themselves perceive the helpfulness of repeated helpline contact and to examine tensions between user and staff understandings of effective helpline communication.

Capture of adeno‐associated viruses from clarified lysate by continuous flow ultracentrifugation: a comparative study of iodixanol and sucrose gradients

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1384-1395, July 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Adeno‐Associated Virus vectors are widely used in gene therapy due to their safety and efficacy. Despite the interest in their therapeutical application, AAV purification remains a significant challenge. Density gradient ultracentrifugation using cesium chloride, sucrose, or iodixanol gradients are common methods for AAV ...

Remittance frictions and seasonal poverty

Quantitative Economics, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 670-708, July 2026.
Seasonal migration is a common strategy to mitigate rural seasonal deprivation, but migrants need to remit money during the lean season to family members facing food shortages. We observe counterintuitively low remittances in rural Nepal during periods of seasonal hunger, and migrants return with remittances later during harvest when food is relatively

Modular Rh‐Catalyzed Synthesis and Biological Profiling of Diverse Pentafluorobenzenesulfonamide Reactive Fragments

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 32, Issue 24, 23 June 2026.
A modular Rh‐catalyzed synthetic approach enabled the preparation of diverse reactive fragments from available substrates. The reactive fragments modified Aurora A kinase via several distinct modification reaction classes. In a complex biological environment, the constellation of modified proteins depended critically on the reactive fragment structure.

Synthesis and Evaluation of Novel Cinnamic Acid Hybrids With Antiacetylcholinesterase, Antioxidant, and Anti‐Inflammatory Properties

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
In this work, we identified two novel pleiotropic sinapic acid derivatives with excellent anti‐acetylcholinesterase, antioxidant, and anti‐inflammatory properties. Alzheimer's disease, one of the most widespread neurodegenerative disorders, is known for its multifactorial nature that makes it challenging to treat.

The asymmetric impacts of remittances on innovation in middle-income economies: A nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag approach

Journal of Innovation & Knowledge
Innovation is essential for promoting long-term growth in middle-income countries (MICs). Amid growing remittance inflows, understanding how these financial transfers influence innovation outcomes has become increasingly important; however, the ...
