Diagnostic Implications and Correlates of Plasma Adenosine Deaminase 2 Activity and ADA2 Variants

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 3, Page 734-742, March 2026.
Objective Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is a monogenic autoinflammatory disease manifested as polyarteritis nodosa, stroke, and bone marrow failure. Leveraging an international cohort of 200 DADA2 cases, we aimed to characterize the diagnostic utility of a plasma ADA2 enzyme activity assay and understand the implications of residual ADA2 ...

Adjacent Forests Enhance Spontaneous Revegetation and Phylogenetic Similarity on Mountainous Roadside Slopes: Implications for Ecological Restoration and Forest Edge Management

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
The native‐dominated vegetation on roadside slopes primarily originates from adjacent forests, with long‐distance dispersal traits enhancing spontaneous colonization in these disturbed environments. The species composition and phylogenetic similarity between slope and forest communities are significantly influenced by the adjacent forests (species ...

Maternal feeding history affects the trade‐off between offspring number and size for a holobenthic octopus

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Female reproductive fitness has been clearly shown to be determined in part by a trade‐off between offspring size and number, and the corresponding performance of the offspring. The performance of offspring and corresponding reproductive fitness may vary in relation to changes in environmental conditions, such as food availability.

Preparation and some properties of cholesterol oxidase from Rhodococcus sp. R14-2

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2008
Rhodococcus sp. R14-2, isolated from Chinese Jin-hua ham, produces a novel extracellular cholesterol oxidase (COX). The enzyme was extracted from fermentation broth and purified 53.1-fold based on specific activity. The purified enzyme shows a single polypeptide band on SDS-PAGE with an estimated molecular weight of about 60 kDa, and has a pI of 8.5 ...

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 743-758, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

The Mediating Role of Positive Empathy in Resident Participation in Sustainable Tourism: Evidence From an Ancient Chinese Town

International Journal of Tourism Research, Volume 28, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT While sustainable tourism has attracted scholarly attention, understanding how resident positive empathy shapes participation in rural destinations remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by examining sustainable tourism in a remote rural setting through the lens of positive psychology.

Influences of glycine and neuron R14 on contraction of the anterior aorta of Aplysia.

The Japanese Journal of Physiology, 1984
Firing neuron R14 in the Aplysia parietovisceral ganglion enhances the force of stimulated contractions and causes rhythmic contractions rather than individual contractions in response to a single stimulation of the anterior aorta of Aplysia. Bath application of 1.0 mM glycine to the artery causes a small depolarization, rhythmic contractions and ...

Simulative and dissimulative masking: Resolving how educational practice that protects neurodivergent people from harm can suppress learning

British Journal of Special Education, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 5-17, March 2026.
Abstract The issue of how best to support neurodivergent learners with high need in educational settings has received much attention, with many questioning how an individual can be safeguarded while maintaining their autonomy. Using Participatory Action Research (PAR), the authors draw on the experiences of neurodivergent learners, and their families ...
