From fluke to fragment: A multifaceted method for molecular sex identification and mitochondrial haplotyping from environmental DNA samples

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses have become a powerful tool for non‐invasive biodiversity monitoring, yet the applicability of population‐genetic approaches to environmental samples remains largely unexplored. Even when genetic traces originate from a single individual, low target DNA concentrations and amplification or sequencing artefacts ...

Role of ANO1‐Expressing PDGFRα+ Smooth Muscle Cells in Generating Spontaneous Phasic Contractions of the Rodent Epididymis

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Spontaneous phasic contractions (SPCs) in the epididymal duct play an important role in transport and maturation of sperm. In proximal cauda of the rat epididymis, platelet‐derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα)‐positive smooth muscle cells (SMCs) generate ANO1 Ca2+‐activated chloride channels (CaCCs)‐dependent spontaneous ...

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.

Variation in measuring and ophthalmic factors correlating with central corneal thickness in the Northern Finland birth cohort eye study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To assess the correlation between optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ultrasound pachymetry (USP) as methods for analysing central corneal thickness (CCT) and to evaluate ophthalmic factors affecting CCT. Methods The eyes of 3070 subjects of the Northern Finland Birth Cohort (NFBC) were examined at the age of 45–49 years.

Type and intensity of physical activity and their sex‐specific relation with classroom behaviour in preadolescent children

British Journal of Educational Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background On‐task behaviour in the classroom, which partly relies on inhibitory control, contributes to academic achievement. Physical activity has much potential to facilitate on‐task behaviour due to its positive association with inhibitory control.

Perioperative Durvalumab for Resectable NSCLC: Updated Outcomes for Japanese Patients in AEGEAN

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
In prespecified exploratory analyses of Japanese patients with resectable NSCLC enrolled in the AEGEAN trial, perioperative durvalumab plus neoadjuvant chemotherapy demonstrated clinically meaningful improvements in the primary endpoints of EFS and pCR versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy alone.

Phase II Study of Cisplatin/Gemcitabine Plus Necitumumab for Squamous NSCLC After ICI‐Platinum Therapy (WJOG14120L)

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
WJOG14120L NESSIE evaluated cisplatin, gemcitabine, and necitumumab (CGN) as second‐line therapy after ICI‐based treatment in 46 patients with advanced squamous NSCLC. ORR was 26.1%, DCR 87.0%, and median PFS 4.4 months. Although the predefined ORR threshold was not met, CGN showed modest antitumor activity with manageable toxicity.

Distinct Clinical Features of Multiple Myeloma With t(11;14): A Post Hoc Analysis of JSH‐MM‐15 Study

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
t(11;14)‐positive MM is a clinically distinct subgroup characterized by intermediate prognostic risk, modest response depth, and treatment‐dependent outcomes. ABSTRACT t(11;14) (q13;q32) occurs in approximately 15%–25% of multiple myeloma (MM) cases and has traditionally been regarded as a standard cytogenetic risk factor.
