Construction of China national newborn growth standards based on a large low-risk sample

Scientific Reports, 2021
Most published newborn growth references are based on conventional monitoring data that usually included both low- and high-risk pregnancies. We sought to develop a set of neonatal growth standards constructed from only a large sample of low-risk ...

Flux growth in a horizontal configuration: an analogue to vapor transport growth [PDF]

Phys. Rev. Materials 1, 023402 (2017), 2017
Flux growth of single crystals is normally performed in a vertical configuration with an upright refractory container holding the flux melt. At high temperatures, flux dissolves the charge forming a homogeneous solution before nucleation and growth of crystals take place under proper supersaturation generated by cooling or evaporating the flux.

The immunological interface: dendritic cells as key regulators in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

Strain Engineering of Ferroelectric Domains in KxNa1−xNbO3 Epitaxial Layers

Frontiers in Materials, 2017
The application of lattice strain through epitaxial growth of oxide films on lattice mismatched perovskite-like substrates strongly influences the structural properties of ferroelectric domains and their corresponding piezoelectric behavior.

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

A nanobody-based toolset to investigate the role of protein localization and dispersal in Drosophila

eLife, 2017
The role of protein localization along the apical-basal axis of polarized cells is difficult to investigate in vivo, partially due to lack of suitable tools.

Insights into the renal pathophysiology in Hermansky‐Pudlak syndrome‐1 from urinary extracellular vesicle proteomics and a new mouse model

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Hermansky‐Pudlak syndrome type 1 (HPS‐1) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder with poorly understood renal involvement. Urinary extracellular vesicle (uEV) proteomics and a novel Hps1 mouse model reveal mitochondrial abnormalities and lipid accumulation in HPS‐1 kidney proximal tubule cells. Serum ApoA1 correlates with kidney function in our patient

Investigating the Relationship between Nocturnal Enuresis and Sleep Disordered Breathing Using Polysomnography Data of 5-10 Year-Old Children Referred to Qazvin Children's Hospital, Iran

Journal of Sleep Sciences
Background and Objective: Sleep is a critical biological necessity essential for maintaining both physical and mental health in humans. Given the prevalence of nocturnal enuresis (NE) in children, this study sought to explore its potential link to sleep-

An Integrated Landscape Approach for Socially Inclusive Peatland Restoration

Journal of Wetlands Environmental Management, 2020
Successful restoration and fire prevention in peat landscapes require full rewetting and permanent revegetation for optimal water retention. The ecological and socio-economic heterogeneity of these landscapes calls for integrated approaches based on ...

The growth companies puzzle: can growth opportunities measures predict firm growth? [PDF]

, 2011
While numerous empirical studies include proxies for growth opportunities in their analyses, there is limited evidence as to the validity of the various growth proxies used.
