Circulating TREM2 as a noninvasive diagnostic biomarker for NASH in patients with elevated liver stiffness

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Reliable noninvasive biomarkers are an unmet clinical need for the diagnosis of NASH. This study investigates the diagnostic accuracy of the circulating triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (plasma TREM2) as a biomarker for NASH in patients with NAFLD and elevated liver stiffness.

Making teaching an attractive profession: What are the challenges and opportunities for minority ethnic teachers in England?

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the challenges and opportunities surrounding the recruitment and retention of minority ethnic teachers in England. Drawing on interview data from 33 teachers and school leaders of diverse ethnic backgrounds, it investigates whether racialised barriers identified in earlier research have shifted in the current context of ...

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

The influence of rivers on seabird foraging ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rivers act as vital arteries to the world's oceans, delivering fresh water and nutrients that sustain marine ecosystems. Globally, river flow increasingly is being altered by climate change and anthropogenic pressures; yet the significance of rivers to predatory marine species, such as seabirds, and the extent to which river‐related changes ...

Hidden Markov graphical models with state‐dependent generalized hyperbolic distributions

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In this article, we develop a novel hidden Markov graphical model to investigate time‐varying interconnectedness between different financial markets. To identify conditional correlation structures under varying market conditions and accommodate shape features embedded in financial time series, we rely upon the generalized hyperbolic family of ...

Mapping and Innovating Business Models of Food Hubs in Short Food Supply Chains

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Short food supply chains (SFSCs) offer sustainable alternatives to conventional food systems (CFSCs) but require effective intermediaries to scale and remain competitive. Food Hubs (FHs) serve this role by enhancing SFSC efficiency and market reach while upholding community‐oriented values. However, limited research has examined how FHs design

Neural Network‐Based Detection of Adulterants in Opioid Samples Using IR Absorption Spectroscopy

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
We construct a neural network for the classification of bromazolam and fluorofentanyl in illicit opioid samples. The model outperforms a random forest classifier and shows elevated performance for low concentration samples. ABSTRACT Community‐based drug checking services are challenged in their ability to reliably detect low concentration adulterants ...

Bioactivation and Metabolism of Amino Acid MDMA Prodrugs in Zebrafish Embryos, Human Liver S9, Whole Blood, and Microdosed Human Urine

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
Bioactivation and metabolism of MDMA prodrugs: MDMA‐Trp, MDMA‐Lys, MDMA‐Gly showed unique urine screening targets only for MDMA‐Trp, while biomarkers for MDMA‐Lys and MDMA‐Gly consisted of MDMA and known MDMA metabolites. Conversion of amino acid prodrugs to MDMA in pHLS9, zebrafish embryos, and humans. ABSTRACT 3,4‐Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA)
