Effects of Rice Bran Extract on the Quality and Digestive Properties of Chinese Steamed Buns [PDF]
FoodsThis study investigated the effects of rice bran extract (RBE) on the quality and digestibility of Chinese steamed buns (CSBs). RBE decreased the starch pasting properties, weakened the starch gel network structure, and reduced the storage modulus (G ...

A novel inflammation-nutrition risk score (INRS) and its related nomogram model to predict radiological bronchiectasis in patients after tuberculosis infection in Wuhan, China [PDF]
Annals of MedicineBackground Tuberculosis infection (TBI) is a significant cause of bronchiectasis (BE). Identifying risk factors for radiological BE (RBE) could enhance the early detection of high-risk individuals following TB infection.

Evaluation of organ-specific relative biological effectiveness of proton therapy using radiation-induced pneumonitis as an endpoint [PDF]
Clinical and Translational Radiation OncologyBackground and purpose: Proton therapy has become widely used for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) due to its ability to spare normal tissue. However, the commonly assumed relative biological effectiveness (RBE) of 1.1 may underestimate the therapy’s ...

Genomic Diversity of the Ostreid Herpesvirus Type 1 Across Time and Location and Among Host Species
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 The mechanisms underlying virus emergence are rarely well understood, making the appearance of outbreaks largely unpredictable. This is particularly true for pathogens with low per-site mutation rates, such as DNA viruses, that do not exhibit a large ...

A Comprehensive Review for the Surveillance of Human Pathogenic Microorganisms in Shellfish
Microorganisms, 2023 Bivalve molluscan shellfish have been consumed for centuries. Being filter feeders, they may bioaccumulate some microorganisms present in coastal water, either naturally or through the discharge of human or animal sewage.
