Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging for the Kyoto Classification of Gastritis: Evaluation of Visibility and Color Differences

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Statistically significant differences between the three groups were observed. Furthermore, the ΔE* of texture and color enhancement imaging (TXI)‐1 was significantly greater than that of TXI‐2. Box plots show the median (center line) and interquartile range (box). Whiskers extend to the most extreme values within 1.5×IQR, and values beyond the whiskers

Different Transcriptional Responses to Developmental Versus Short‐Term Acclimation Temperatures in Pieris rapae

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Transcriptomic data indicates that gene expression responses underlying developmental thermal plasticity differ from those of short‐term acclimation temperature in the butterfly Pieris rapae. We also identify a small subset of genes for which expression levels depend on the interaction of developmental temperature and short‐term acclimation temperature.

Modeling the Probability of Tsunami Fire Ignition Based on Data From the 2011 Tohoku and 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquakes, With Recommendations to Reduce Emerging Fire Risk in Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structures

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 5, Page 1116-1133, 25 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

Compliance With Swallowing Instruction and Quality of Life in Patients With Parkinson's Disease: A Retrospective Assessment of Instructional Methods to Maintain and Improve Quality of Life

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 177-188, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate the effects of swallowing instructional methods and content on instructional compliance among patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods Overall, 59 of the 317 patients with PD who underwent a videofluoroscopic examination of swallowing (VF) and completed the Japanese version of the Dysphagia Handicap Index (DHI ...

STUDIES ON THE REDESIGN OF THE TEACHING PROCESS USING THE METHODS OF QUALITY ENGINEERING

Journal of Industrial Design and Engineering Graphics, 2019
Experience as a university teacher has shown us that with the changing times, the student's attitude towards the teaching process changes. In this paper, the authors make an original study by aiming to lay the groundwork for a method of teaching courses ...

Proton Tautomerism for Anhydrous Superprotonic Conduction in 1,2,3‐Triazolium Dihydrogen Phosphate Crystal

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 11, 9 March 2026.
This study investigates the contribution of proton tautomerism to solid‐state proton conduction and achieves isotropic superprotonic conduction in acid–base single crystals. Specifically, low‐barrier isotropic superprotonic conductivity exceeding 10−3 S cm−1 is achieved in a cocrystal of 1,2,3‐triazole and phosphoric acid.

Bonding social capital, disaster experience, and post‐disaster giving in Japan

Disasters, Volume 50, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract When are people willing to donate their time or money after a disaster? We investigate the psychological and socio‐economic determinants of post‐disaster giving in Japan, using a nationally representative panel survey of more than 7,000 respondents, conducted repeatedly from early 2020, including after the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake.

Astrocyte Proximity Protects Synapses From Human Amyloid‐Beta Induced Degeneration in a Mouse Ex Vivo Model of Early Alzheimer's Disease

European Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 7, April 2026.
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia, affecting over 35 million people worldwide. A key feature of AD is the loss of synapses—the connections between brain cells—which strongly correlates with cognitive decline. We sought to investigate the role of astrocytes in mouse organotypic cultures challenged with brain homogenate (BH ...

Myofibre Density Reveals a Critical Threshold Around Age 6 in Steroid‐Naïve Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: A Retrospective Observational Study

Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology, Volume 52, Issue 2, April 2026.
We analysed archival muscle biopsies of steroid‐naïve patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), proposing a novel, simple metric: myofibre density (MFD). MFD sharply declines until age 6, identifying a critical threshold around this age. MFD provides a sensitive, reproducible biomarker for early disease progression, highlighting a potential ...

Neuromuscular and neuromechanical assessments of respiratory performance in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy across the natural history of disease

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 2279-2307, 1 April 2026.
Abstract Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe life‐limiting X‐linked neuromuscular disorder characterised by progressive skeletal muscle degeneration and respiratory failure. The mdx mouse, lacking dystrophin, is the most widely used preclinical model of DMD, yet the trajectory of respiratory dysfunction in this model remains incompletely ...
