Characterization and Preliminary Investigation of Alkylpolyglucoside Combined With a Biopolymer for Enhanced Oil Recovery

open access: yesJournal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
Materials and main results of the study. ABSTRACT Surfactant–polymer (SP) flooding is a promising Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technique, combining improved displacement from surfactants with enhanced sweep efficiency from polymers. This study investigates two SP systems based on the biopolymer scleroxanthan (a blend of sclerotium gum and xanthan gum ...

Pilot trial of THRIVE: A peer‐delivered sexual and intimate partner violence prevention program for women in substance use treatment

open access: yesJournal of Traumatic Stress, EarlyView.
Abstract High rates of interpersonal violence exposure and trauma‐related mental health concerns among women in substance use treatment underscore the need for violence prevention services in these settings. Peer support specialists can play a crucial role in increasing access to trauma‐focused services and overcoming barriers, such as stigma and ...

Impact of BMI and Body Weight on Clinical Outcomes in Psoriasis: A Post Hoc Analysis of the RESOLVE Observational Study

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
This post‐hoc analysis of the Greek real‐world ReSOLVE study compared clinical and patient‐reported outcomes by body weight (< 100 kg vs. ≥ 100 kg) and BMI over 52 weeks. Patients ≥ 100 kg showed delayed PASI and sPGA responses at W24 and W52, while BMI had little impact. Quality‐of‐life improvements were substantial, though early gains were smaller in

Specific functional knee phenotypes are associated with increased osteoarthritis progression: A ≥10‐year longitudinal study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate osteoarthritis (OA) progression across functional knee phenotypes (FKPs) over a follow‐up period of ≥10 years. Methods This retrospective longitudinal study included 388 patients (764 knees) with healthy knees or early OA (Kellgren–Lawrence grade ≤1) at baseline and a minimum follow‐up of 10 years.

Limited predictive value of preseason isokinetic strength testing for noncontact lower extremity injuries in elite female football players: A 5‐year prospective cohort study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate associations between preseason isokinetic strength and subsequent noncontact lower extremity injuries in professional and elite youth female football players. Methods In this prospective study, 271 players (professional, under 20 [U20], under 17 [U17]) underwent preseason isokinetic testing over five seasons ...

Transoral Ultrasound in the Diagnostic Workup of Peritonsillar Abscess—A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Peritonsillar abscess frequently mimics peritonsillar cellulitis, exposing many patients to unnecessary and often painful blind needle aspirations. In this multicenter randomized clinical trial of 95 patients, adding transoral ultrasound to standard examination reduced needle aspiration attempts by nearly one third.

Functional Dissociation Between Cervical VEMP and Posterior Canal vHIT in 1770 Unselected Ears

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Cervical VEMP and posterior canal vHIT are conventionally treated as measures of a single inferior vestibular unit. In 1770 unselected ears from a diagnosis‐agnostic registry, the two tests disagreed in 72.7% of ears abnormal on at least one test, with chance‐corrected agreement near zero (κ = 0.097) and unchanged across age strata.

Estimation Accuracy Obviously Increased of Soil Organic Carbon Content Based on Habitat Patches Scale Using Interpretable Machine Learning in Southwest China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although machine learning models have been successfully applied to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC), the lack of interpretability research has resulted in the absence of mechanistic explanations for these models. Therefore, in this study, we adopted the following workflow: first, we divided the whole study area into several subregions using ...

Future Soil Erosion Under Combined CMIP6 Climate Projections and Land Use/Land Cover Change: A RUSLE‐Based Assessment of the Kampe Omi Dam Basin in Nigeria

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soil erosion remains a major environmental challenge in Nigeria, driven by the combined effects of climate variability and land use/land cover (LULC) changes. Understanding future dynamics is essential for effective soil conservation planning.
