Hypervision Proton Surgery: The Future Direction of Proton Therapy

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proton beams provide unique physical advantages characterized by a low entrance dose, negligible exit dose, and a sharp Bragg peak, which enable superior sparing of normal tissues and support safe dose escalation for improved tumor control. However, conventional photon‐based fractionation remains widely used in proton therapy, where prolonged ...

Multi‐omics biomarkers for intestinal infection and inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease: Current evidence, translational challenges, and diagnostic opportunities

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Prospective multi‐site cohorts, multi‐omics profiling, and computational analysis may help identify biomarker patterns across clinical settings in IBD and superimposed infections. With further mechanistic and clinical validation, these signals could support the development of practical multi‐analyte tools for more precise diagnosis and management ...

Early joint attention abilities measured by the ADOS‐2 predict subsequent expressive language development in minimally verbal autistic children

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Most preschool autistic children exhibit substantial language delays, yet only ∼25% remain minimally verbal (MV) throughout life. Developing expressive language is crucial for improving outcomes. This study examined early predictors of later expressive language growth in MV preschool autistic children.

Outcomes and adverse effects of teduglutide treatment with periodic withdrawal in pediatric short bowel patients

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives We evaluated the efficacy and safety of teduglutide in a real‐world cohort in which national reimbursement policies required treatment interruptions. The primary outcomes were reduction in parenteral support (PS) and treatment‐related adverse effects, and the secondary outcome was the impact of the mandated withdrawal periods ...

Maintaining egg freshness in the absence of refrigeration: The potential of zero‐energy cooling pots

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Egg storage in regions with unreliable electricity is challenging, leading to rapid quality deterioration and postharvest losses. This study evaluated the efficacy of a Zero‐Energy Cooling (ZEC) pot, an evaporative cooling technology, for preserving table egg quality in comparison to conventional refrigeration and ambient storage ...
