Chronic Rhinosinusitis and Nasal Polyps in Eosinophilic Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis: A Scoping Review

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common manifestations of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), often preceding the diagnosis of systemic vasculitis by several years. The sinonasal presentation of EGPA typically resembles CRS with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), making it clinically indistinguishable from those

Clinical Longitudinal Evaluation After Regimen Stop (CLEAR) of Dupilumab in Chronic Rhinosinusitis With Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP)

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Long‐term management strategies for severe chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) increasingly include biologic therapy targeting Type 2 inflammation. However, data on outcomes after complete discontinuation of dupilumab following sustained disease control are scarce.

PRAGMATIC ANALYSIS OF SPEECH ACTS

Abstract. Speech acts, as introduced by J.L. Austin and further developed by John Searle, form a cornerstone of pragmatics, the study of language in context. This article provides a pragmatic analysis of speech acts, exploring their classification, felicity conditions, direct and indirect realizations, and cross-cultural variations.

The Jekyll and Hyde Nature of Tetrazoles in Polymer Science: From Intrinsic Electronic Duality to Programmable Macromolecular Function

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Tetrazoles are reframed as substitution‐programmable heterocycles rather than static functional groups in polymer chemistry. By linking electronic identity to synthetic strategy and polymer architecture, this mini‐review establishes a design framework for translating tetrazole duality into predictable macromolecular function.

In defense of a pragmatic conception of language

Gragoatá, 2005
We argue in favour of a pragmatic view within the framework of contemporary analytic philosophy of language. We distinguish two views of pragmatics: the first has context as the key notion, and the second understand language as action. We take the second

Cooling Holes in Polymer Spur Gears: A Critical Analysis of Heat Dissipation Benefits and Mesh Stiffness Penalties

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Cooling holes provide a simple passive cooling strategy for polymer spur gears, reducing maximum operating temperature by up to 9.39% while introducing a measurable gear mesh stiffness penalty. A validated response‐surface model reveals how hole size and location govern this thermal–mechanical trade‐off, enabling design optimization for thermally and ...

Artificial Neural Network Driven Computational Modeling of Naegleria fowleri Epidemics Using Variational Optimization

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a mathematical framework to analyze the transmission dynamics of an amoeba‐induced central nervous system infection. The population is divided into compartments including susceptible, exposed, infected, quarantined, hospitalized, recovered, protected, and deceased.

A critical reappraisal of the carotid sinus and carotid bulb: Distinguishing neurohistological function from vascular geometry

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
This review redefines the carotid bulb (CB) as a variable geometric dilation shaped by hemodynamics and the carotid sinus (CS) as a conserved neurohistological baroreceptor field. Distinguishing these entities clarifies a century of anatomical confusion and links geometry, neurohistology, and clinical interpretation within a unified framework ...

Behavioral Incentives for Exercise and Intra‐Articular Glucocorticoids for Knee Osteoarthritis: Results From a Factorially Designed Pragmatic Randomized Clinical Trial

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the benefit of a behaviorally designed incentive program and glucocorticoid injections in reducing symptoms and promoting physical activity in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods This was a pragmatic, multisite, factorially designed, blinded, randomized clinical trial.

Explicit Strategies-Based Instruction for L2 Apology and Request Production: Should It Be Separate or Integrated?

Research in English Language Pedagogy
Pragmatic learning strategies have been recently addressed in descriptive studies; however, research into their instruction is scarce. This study compared the effects of explicit separate and explicit integrated pragmatic learning strategies-based ...
