Combined drought and heat stress in wheat: changes in some heat shock proteins
Biologia Plantarum, 2011 The influence of combined and individually applied drought and heat stress was studied in two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars: resistant cv. Katya and susceptible cv. Sadovo.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Positron emission tomography with x‐ray computed tomography (PET/CT) is increasingly being utilized for radiation treatment planning (RTP). Accurate delivery of RT therefore depends on quality PET/CT data. This study covers quality control (QC) procedures required for PET/CT for diagnostic imaging and incremental QC required for RTP.

Classification of Crop Tolerance to Heat and Drought: A Deep Convolutional Neural Networks Approach [PDF]
Agronomy 2019, 9, 833, 2019 Environmental stresses such as drought and heat can cause substantial yield loss in agriculture. As such, hybrid crops that are tolerant to drought and heat stress would produce more consistent yields compared to the hybrids that are not tolerant to these stresses.

Statistical process control to monitor use of a web‐based autoplanning tool
Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose To investigate the use of statistical process control (SPC) for quality assurance of an integrated web‐based autoplanning tool, Radiation Planning Assistant (RPA). Methods Automatically generated plans were downloaded and imported into two treatment planning systems (TPSs), RayStation and Eclipse, in which they were recalculated using ...

Transcriptome analysis identifies genes and co-expression networks underlying heat tolerance in pigs
BMC Genetics, 2020 Background Heat stress adversely affects pig growth and reproduction performance by reducing feed intake, weight gain, farrowing rate, and litter size. Heat tolerance is an important characteristic in pigs, allowing them to mitigate the negative effects ...

A transient inflammatory response contributes to oxaliplatin neurotoxicity in mice
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1985-1998, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives Peripheral neuropathy is a relevant dose‐limiting adverse event that can affect up to 90% of oncologic patients with colorectal cancer receiving oxaliplatin treatment. The severity of neurotoxicity often leads to dose reduction or even premature cessation of chemotherapy.

Effect of In-vitro Heat Stress Challenge on the function of Blood Mononuclear Cells from Dairy Cattle ranked as High, Average and Low Immune Responders [PDF]
BMC Vet Res 17, 233 (2021), 2021 The warming climate is causing livestock to experience heat stress at an increasing frequency. Holstein cows are particularly susceptible to heat stress because of their high metabolic rate. Heat stress negatively affects immune function, particularly with respect to the cell-mediated immune response, which leads to increased susceptibility to disease.
