Moose indifferent to canopy loss from forest disturbance by bark beetles

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Moose showed strikingly similar patterns of habitat selection before and after widespread forest disturbance following an infestation of bark beetles. Our findings indicate that beetle‐kill does not appreciably alter habitat quality for moose and highlight the importance of riparian areas in sustaining moose as they contend with changing forests ...

Dynamic computed tomography assessment of patellofemoral and tibiofemoral kinematics before and after total knee arthroplasty: A pilot study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To develop and evaluate the clinical feasibility of a dynamic computed tomography (CT) protocol for assessing patellofemoral (PF) and tibiofemoral (TF) kinematics before and after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and to quantify postoperative kinematic changes in a pilot study.

Nasal Air‐Jet Sensitivity Differentiates Empty Nose Syndrome and Turbinate Reduction Patients: A Pilot Study

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This prospective pilot study aims to compare nasal mucosal sensitivity to air‐jet stimuli between ENS patients and patients who underwent septoplasty/turbinate reduction (septo‐turb) surgery, but without ENS symptoms. The ENS group had a significantly higher (less sensitive) threshold than the septo‐turb group for the septum opposing the center of the ...

How to Conduct a Multi‐Domain Systematic (Literature) Review? Guidelines Using The Lotus Protocol

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complex challenges increasingly demand multidisciplinary research across intersecting knowledge domains. However, existing systematic (literature) review protocols offer limited guidance and tend to confine scholars to single‐domain or single‐intersection reviews.

Gait Adaptability Training Improves Gait in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Patients

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a rare, genetic neurodegenerative movement disorder primarily affecting the cerebellum. So far, there is no available cure for SCA. However, evidence suggests that neurorehabilitation can alleviate symptoms.

Designing High‐Entropy Alloys With Low Stacking Fault Energy Through Interpretable Machine Learning

open access: yesMaterials Genome Engineering Advances, EarlyView.
In this study, we developed an interpretable machine learning (ML) ensemble framework and, by integrating the VEC criterion with the proposed machine learning scoring parameter in the alloy composition screening process, successfully designed multiple CoCrFeNiMn‐based HEAs with TWIP/TRIP effects and without the BCC phase.

Automated Segmentation of Median Nerve Cross‐Sectional Area in Healthy Controls and Patients With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Using a Convolutional Neural Network

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims The cross‐sectional area (CSA) of the median nerve (MN) is a key parameter for confirming carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) with ultrasound. This study evaluates the performance of a convolutional neural network (CNN) with a 2D U‐Net architecture for automated MN CSA segmentation in both healthy individuals and patients with CTS ...

Association between serum bicarbonate and low mid‐upper arm circumference in patients with non‐dialysis‐dependent chronic kidney disease: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesNutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although previous experimental studies showed that metabolic acidosis promoted muscle catabolism and impaired protein synthesis, few epidemiological studies reported an independent association between serum bicarbonate levels and muscle atrophy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
