Albiflorin Relieves Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Through Inhibiting Nucleus Pulposus Cell via the p38 MAPK/NF‐κB Pathway [PDF]

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background As a chronic musculoskeletal disorder, intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is a leading cause of low back pain. Inflammatory response plays a key role in the IDD progression. Albiflorin (AF), a bioactive compound derived from Paeonia lactiflora, exhibits anti‐inflammatory effects in various diseases. However, the effects of AF on

Component analysis of a self‐monitoring intervention for increasing task engagement for individuals with developmental disabilities [PDF]

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, Volume 59, Issue 2, Spring 2026.
Abstract Self‐monitoring (SM) has been used as part of intervention packages to enhance skills such as leisure and vocational engagement for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). However, the effectiveness of SM alone remains unclear.

Soft-Decision-Driven Channel Estimation for Pipelined Turbo Receivers [PDF]

, 1999
We consider channel estimation specific to turbo equalization for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication. We develop a soft-decision-driven sequential algorithm geared to the pipelined turbo equalizer architecture operating on ...

From nominal to true a posteriori probabilities: an exact Bayesian theorem based probabilistic data association approach for iterative MIMO detection and decoding

, 2013
It was conventionally regarded that the existing probabilistic data association (PDA) algorithms output the estimated symbol-wise a posteriori probabilities (APPs) as soft information.

Compression suture: A method for simulating intervertebral disc degeneration in rats induced by excessive loading

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the compression suture group, a 5‐mm‐wide tail skin was removed, and then the defect was sutured to apply compressive force to the intervertebral disc. In the sham group, only the 5‐mm‐wide tail skin was removed without a compression suture. Compression suturing triggers apoptosis, inflammatory response, and imbalance of extracellular matrix ...

An unusual titanosaur axis from the Upper Cretaceous of Brazil and its significance for sauropod anatomy and systematics

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Translation of a physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic model for dabigatran etexilate to the design of a safety and efficacy study in post‐partum women

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims To translate a PBPK model developed for the direct oral anticoagulant, dabigatran etexilate, the prodrug of dabigatran, based on data obtained from healthy men to healthy non‐pregnant, pregnant and post‐partum women. To evaluate safety and efficacy of dabigatran etexilate in post‐partum women using simulations and design a future clinical study to

The Verification of Co‐Axiality of the Three Self‐Expanding Transcatheter Aortic Valve Systems According to the Difference in Shaft Spine

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...
