Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.

Isoform Specificity of a Compound Targeting Actin Filaments Containing Tropomyosin Tpm1.8/1.9
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The unbranched actin filaments in mammalian cells are usually composed of co‐polymers of a specific tropomyosin isoform with actin. Genetic manipulation has revealed that the tropomyosins largely define the functional properties of actin filaments in an isoform‐specific, non‐redundant manner.

Addressing Causality and Homogeneity Assumptions in Exposure‐Response Analyses
Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.Exposure‐response, or pharmacokinetic–pharmacodynamic (PKPD), analyses support many drug development decisions. It is typically applied without assessment of causality and homogeneity, where the latter refers to the assumption that the reason for variability in exposure is unimportant for the impact on response.

Resilience Practices and Post‐Traumatic Growth Among Sudanese IDPs
Conflict Resolution Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In this paper we examine the resilience of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Sudan who have endured various forms of suffering resulting from being targeted or trapped by militants involved in large‐scale violence. Upon escaping the conflict zones, the civilians exhibit strength, adaptability, and wisdom in the face of various threats to ...

Pss knockdown in the midgut causes growth retardation in Drosophila similar to that in human LMHD
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Phosphatidylserine synthase (PSS), localized in the mitochondrial membrane, synthesizes phosphatidylserine. In humans, mutations in Pss lead to Lenz–Majewski hyperostotic dwarfism, a disorder affecting growth and development. The effects of Pss mutations on the growth of Drosophila melanogaster are not fully known. Hence, this study

THE ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF A FOOT-AND-MOUTH DISEASE OUTBREAK: A REGIONAL ANALYSIS [PDF]
Contagious animal diseases like foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) are often referred to as economic diseases because of the magnitude of economic harm they can cause to producers and to local communities. This study demonstrates the local economic impact of a

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.Abstract Exposure levels without appreciable human health risk may be determined by dividing a point of departure on a dose–response curve (e.g., benchmark dose) by a composite adjustment factor (AF). An “effect severity” AF (ESAF) is employed in some regulatory contexts.
