Use of Wearable Sensors in Angelman Syndrome: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Wearable sensors are a promising method for collecting clinical trial outcome data for people with Angelman syndrome (AS). However, there has yet to be a systematic probe into the ways in which wearable sensors have been successfully used in AS. The current study aims to provide a quantitative summary of wearable sensors used in AS,

MRI‐based, 3D analysis of Achilles tendon longitudinal strain under passive loading reveals limitations in conventional 2D measurement

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Graphical overview of 2D and 3D length measurements of the free Achilles tendon. The figure also illustrates how the typical distal morphology of the soleus muscle affects 2D measurement. Abstract Quantifying strain in the free Achilles tendon (ATF) is essential for understanding its mechanical function, yet existing in vivo studies report inconsistent

Effects of Prepartum Supplementation and Yeast Fermentation Products on the Progesterone‐Modulated Transfer of Passive Immunity in Bos indicus Cows

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inadequate colostrum intake increases risks of calf morbidity and mortality. This study investigated the effects of prepartum and early postpartum supplementation and yeast fermentation products on late‐pregnant Bos indicus cows, and the role of progesterone in mediating passive immunity transfer.

Going silent? Evidence for independent losses of acoustic communication in tree crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera, Grylloidea, Oecanthidae)

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Our ancestral state reconstruction in tree crickets reveals multiple independent and irreversible losses of sound‐producing and ‐receiving structures, supporting the convergent evolution of the silent phenotype. We demonstrate strong evolutionary integration between forewings and tympana, although the discovery of ‘silent listeners′ and ‘deaf singers ...

Filter feeders living on suspension feeders: New insights into the lifestyle and distribution of Arcturidae Dana, 1849 (Crustacea: Isopoda) around Iceland

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract The focus of the present study was on arcturid isopods occurring in the subarctic region around Iceland. Data from two decades of sampling with an epibenthic sledge (EBS) during numerous expeditions of the BIOICE (Benthic Invertebrates of Icelandic Waters; 1992–2004) and IceAGE (Icelandic marine Animals: Genetics and Ecology; 2011—ongoing ...

Becoming Dostoevsky (how Rowan Williams opens up Bakhtin)

open access: yesModern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract With the end of Communism in Russia, non‐materialist contexts were enthusiastically restored to Mikhail Bakhtin's globally famous ideas of carnival, dialogism, and polyphony. This essay surveys Rowan Williams's 2008 study Dostoevsky: Language, Faith + Fiction as a major contribution to this effort, concentrating on those general philosophical ...

Unintended Consequences of Fiscal Governance Rules on the Long‐Term Financial Position of State Governments

open access: yesPublic Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fiscal governance rules are viewed as prudent tools that promote balanced budgets, lower tax burdens, and ensure modest use of long‐term debt. However, these rules can create incentives that inadvertently worsen the government's long‐term financial position. Focusing on unfunded retiree benefits and long‐term debt, this study finds that states
