Allergic Rhinitis Amplifies Asthma Risk in Patients With Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Large‐Scale Retrospective Cohort Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and allergic rhinitis (AR) are two highly prevalent airway diseases in the United States. While the coexistence of CRS and asthma is well recognized, less is known about the development of new‐onset asthma in CRS, particularly in the context of comorbid AR. This study assessed the impact of CRS and AR on

The Income Gradient and Distribution-Sensitive Measures of Overweight in the U.S.

open access: yes
This paper considers alternate measures of overweight in the U.S. that are sensitive to changes in the body-mass index (BMI) distribution, more robust to measurement error and continuous in the body-mass index (BMI) at the overweight threshold.

Anti‐inflammatory and osteogenic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in knee osteoarthritis rats via the regulation of the intestinal microbiota

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) improved knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in rats by regulating interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), IL‐6, and IL‐8 expressions and the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP‐2)/transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) signaling pathway.

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the
