Simultaneous Acquisition of Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) Optimized for Human Brain

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Increase clinical acceptance of MRE and DTI by shortening the scan time by half and providing diffusive and mechanical property maps that are inherently co‐registered. This proof‐of‐concept study evaluates the simultaneous DTI‐MRE acquisition in the human brain and compares its results to conventional DTI and MRE measurements.

Prospective Association Between Weight Variability and Subsequent Long‐Term Weight Loss in the CALERIE Study

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Higher short‐term weight variability (WV) predicts greater subsequent weight gain in weight‐stable adults and toddlers and lower long‐term weight loss among adults with overweight or obesity who previously lost weight. We extend prior work by examining the impact of naturally occurring WV on subsequent weight loss (weight at month 3 ...

Impact of Stabilizing Osmolytes on the Conformational Dynamics of Human and Rat Islet Amyloid Polypeptides

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) into cytotoxic oligomers and amyloid fibrils is a hallmark of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), leading to pancreatic β‐cell dysfunction. In contrast, rat IAPP (rIAPP) is largely non‐amyloidogenic. Osmolytes such as glucose, glycerol, and sorbitol are known to stabilize globular protein

Architecting and Industrializing Advanced Production and Manufacturing Systems for Critical Industries

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced production systems play a vital role in modern society. Such systems are developed and industrialized over multiple years and at great expense. The complexities of these systems are exacerbated in the case of metal additive manufacturing, which involves numerous process variables and relies on various auxiliary systems.

Presence of Nationally Banned Carbamates and Organophosphate Pesticides in Wild Carnivores, Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As top predators, terrestrial carnivores face great risk of pesticide exposure and serve as sentinels of environmental contamination. Additionally, terrestrial carnivores are frequently threatened by intentional or secondary poisoning with highly toxic compounds, such as carbamates and organophosphates.

Aptamer‐mediated outer membrane destabilization overcomes low permeability resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA aptamers, Apt 60 and Apt 173, target the BamA protein to compromise outer membrane integrity in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, making it susceptible to Azithromycin, an antibiotic that is otherwise poorly effective due to the low‐permeability membrane.

Demonstration of a High‐Resolution Passive Profiler for Characterizing the Distribution of PFAS in Groundwater: A Comparison of Methods in the Field

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Characterizing the concentration and mass flux spatial distributions at sites with complex hydrogeologic conditions is critical to evaluate the fate and transport of contaminants, as well as to design effective remediation programs. PFAS (per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances)‐contaminated sites are even more complex due to the large number of ...

A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...

Liquidity Crises and the Market‐Maker of Last Resort

Journal of Money, Credit and Banking, EarlyView.
Abstract We study market illiquidity in an economy subject to nonfundamental shocks. Asset trading occurs via decentralized bargaining. The model has multiple rational expectations equilibria; we associate certain Pareto‐inferior equilibria with liquidity crises.
