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 ...

Steroidopathies and hormonal imbalance in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental condition with a multifactorial etiology, many aspects of which remain unclear. Emerging evidence suggests a potential association between ASD and clinical manifestations resulting from hormonal imbalances, henceforth named “steroidopathies.” The present study aims to ...

[Basal metabolism and respiratory quotient in obese children].

La Pediatria medica e chirurgica : Medical and surgical pediatrics, 1999
Childhood obesity represents an increasing dysmetabolic condition. The aim of our study was to evaluate the influence of Fat Mass (FM%) on Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) and Respiratory Quotient (RQ) as indicator of substrate oxidation. FFM and FM were estimated by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), using the Kushner equation. Resting metabolic rate

Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...
