Exploring Factors of Dog Temperament Impacting Pass/Fail Outcomes in Therapy Dog Aptitude Tests

Pets
In recent years, requests for animal-assisted interventions (AAI) from medical institutions and welfare facilities have increased. Dogs are the most commonly used animals in AAI. Dogs that pass the “therapy dog” aptitude test can work in AAI. In previous

Exploring the Role of HER1 and HER2 Gene Variants in Breast Cancer Susceptibility: A Case‐Control Study in Bangladesh

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Breast cancer (BC) remains one of the leading causes of cancer‐related deaths among women worldwide. The HER1 and HER2 genes, both members of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family, have been extensively studied for their role in tumor development and progression.

Understanding the effect of spatially separated Cu and acid sites in zeolite catalysts on oxidation of methane

Nature Communications
Unraveling the effect of spatially separated bifunctional sites on catalytic reactions is significant yet challenging. In this report, we investigate the role of spatial separation on the oxidation of methane in a series of Cu-exchanged aluminosilicate ...

Survival prognostic factors in nonsmall cell lung cancer patients with simultaneous brain metastases and poor performance status at initial presentation

Heliyon
Purpose: Although the treatment of nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has rapidly progressed recently, there is little evidence of treatment for patients with symptomatic brain metastases (BM) and poor performance status (PS).

Crystal structures of PCNA1 and PCNA2 from Aeropyrum pernix: implications for a distorted heterotrimeric sliding clamp

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 216-221, June 2026.
Crystal structures of A. pernix PCNA1 (1.60 Å resolution) and PCNA2 (2.17 Å resolution) are reported. High‐resolution analysis reveals a rare nonproline cis‐peptide bond in PCNA1 that may cause steric hindrance at the subunit interface, suggesting a distorted or symmetry‐broken heterotrimeric PCNA ring.Aeropyrum pernix is a hyperthermophilic archaeon ...

Equidistribution Among Cosets of Elliptic Curve Points in Intervals

Journal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2020
In a recent paper devoted to fault analysis of elliptic curve-based signature schemes, Takahashi et al. (TCHES 2018) described several attacks, one of which assumed an equidistribution property that can be informally stated as follows: given an elliptic ...

Promoting Methane Reductions Through Behavioural Nudges and Informational Boosts: A Field Choice Experiment in Japanese Rice Farming

Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 677-698, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Agricultural methane emissions represent a significant contributor to global climate change, with irrigated rice cultivation being one of the primary sources. Despite the availability of effective mitigation technologies, their adoption often remains limited due to behavioural and institutional constraints.

A Multicenter Prospective Study on the Safety and Efficacy of the New Low Axial Force Self‐Expandable Metallic Stent With Slim Delivery System for Malignant Colorectal Obstruction

Digestive Endoscopy, Volume 38, Issue 6, June 2026.
This new low‐AF stent with 9Fr delivery system is highly safe and effective, demonstrating high technical and clinical success rates for placement and a low incidence of adverse events. ABSTRACT Objectives Self‐expandable metallic stents are widely used for malignant colorectal obstruction, and low axial force (AF) stents have been developed to reduce ...

Intrinsic specificity of a ‘core’ TIP60 acetyltransferase complex in Drosophila

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 11, Page 3259-3273, June 2026.
The intrinsic substrate selectivity of the Drosophila TIP60‐core acetyltransferase was determined using synthetic nucleosome arrays. Targeted mass spectrometry revealed site‐specific acetylation of histones H2A, H2A.V, and H4, uncovering distinct acetylation rates and patterns across individual lysines.
