Adaptation to Long-Term Home Non-Invasive Ventilation for People with Chronic Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure: A Qualitative Study

Nursing Reports
Background/Objectives: Home non-invasive ventilation use is the primary treatment for improving respiratory function in people with chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure. Non-invasive ventilation has also been studied to understand users’ perspectives.

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Novel insights into sex-specific differences in heart rate variability and autonomic nervous system regulation during spawning behavior in chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) revealed by re-analysis of ECG logger data

Frontiers in Physiology
This study reanalysed electrocardiogram (ECG) data collected in a previous study on chum salmon to explore sex-specific differences in heart rate variability (HRV) and autonomic nervous system regulation during spawning.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Screening shade-tolerant centipedegrass genotypes: Physiological and transcriptomic insights into shade adaptation mechanisms

Grass Research
Shade stress is a major constraint for the growth and performance of turfgrass in urban environments. To investigate shade tolerance mechanisms in centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides), we evaluated 16 genotypes under 66% and 99% shading for 18 d. CP11

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

The Use of Myocardial Work in Athletes: A Novel Approach to Assess Cardiac Adaptations and Differentiate Physiological Remodeling from Pathology

Applied Sciences
Myocardial work (MW), derived from non-invasive pressure–strain loop (PSL) analysis, has recently emerged as a promising echocardiographic index for assessing left ventricular performance.

Behavioral and Physiological Adaptation to Soil Moisture in the Overwintering Larvae of the Rice Stem Borer in the Subtropics

Agriculture, 2023
Diapausing larvae of the rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker, overwinter in rice stubble. During overwintering, the larvae may move to sites with suitable moisture and undergo physiological changes to prepare for the declining temperature.
