Acute Modafinil Exposure Induces Neurobehavioral Alterations in Zebrafish: Implications for Off‐Label Cognitive Enhancement

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modafinil (2‐(benzhydrylsulfinyl)acetamide) is a psychostimulant commonly prescribed for sleep disorders such as narcolepsy, excessive daytime sleepiness, and obstructive sleep apnea. Recently, its use has extended beyond clinical indications, with neurotypical individuals adopting it as a smart drug to enhance alertness and cognitive ...

Cellular Toxicity of Short‐ and Long‐Term Exposures to Polystyrene Nanoplastics and Microplastics in Fish Skin Cell Derived From Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ubiquitous presence of microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) is raising concerns about their impact on the health of humans and other living organisms. Due to its tiny size, this particle can accumulate and circulate in the body after uptake, resulting in a variety of harmful outcomes on the organism, such as increased oxidative stress and

Effectiveness of a blended online behavioral parent training program for Vietnamese parents of children with ADHD: A randomized controlled trial with 3‐month follow‐up

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Behavioral parent training (BPT) is an evidence‐based intervention for children with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD); however, evidence from low‐ and middle‐income Asian countries remains scarce. This randomized controlled trial evaluated a culturally adapted blended BPT program for Vietnamese parents of elementary ...

A Novel Mechanism for Transcription Termination in the mod(mdg4) Locus of Drosophila melanogaster

Biology
This study investigated an alternative mechanism of transcription termination that occurs independently of polyadenylation. We focused on a non-canonical transcription terminator (NTT) identified in the mod(mdg4) gene of Drosophila melanogaster.

Gate-controlled electromechanical backaction induced by a quantum dot

Nature Communications, 2016
Coupling between quantum structures and mechanical resonators remains a challenge. Here, the authors couple a quantum dot and a piezoelectric microresonator and show that gate-induced single electron transport in the quantum dot enables control of the ...

Slice‐Wise Quality Assessment of High b Value Breast DWI via Deep Learning‐Based Artifact Detection

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) can support lesion detection and characterization in breast MRI. Therefore, DWI is increasingly being incorporated into breast MRI protocols to address some of the shortcomings of routine clinical breast MRI.

New Testament Theology: Too Theological, Too Difficult, and Too Repetitive?

Religions, 2022
This essay argues that New Testament Theology (NTT) is an indispensable mediating discipline between historical exegesis and systematic theology. It defends NTT against claims that: (1) NTT should be replaced by the study of early Christian religion; (2)

Electrification and Child Work: Direct and Spillover Effects in Ethiopia

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While electrification is often promoted for improving adults' labor supply, its effect on child work remains underexplored. Using four waves of Ethiopian panel data, we examine how electrification affects children's work time. By differentiating between households with and without own electricity access within electrified communities, we ...
