Supporting the Integration of the Existential Dimension Into Clinical Practice

Psycho-Oncology, Volume 35, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The existential dimension is a key aspect of palliative care but is often insufficiently integrated in clinical practice. We developed a structured meaning‐making conversation for patients living long‐term with incurable cancer led by a spiritual counsellor to support patients' meaning‐making process.

Pronoun Resolution in Turkish: The Interplay of Referential Form, Word Order, and Implicit Causality

Cognitive Science, Volume 50, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Pronouns are a ubiquitous part of discourse, but unusual in that their meaning is almost entirely determined by context. While early theorists hoped to explain pronouns based on a small number of simple principles, the last half‐century of research has revealed a cornucopia of influences at the syntactic, semantic, discourse, and pragmatic ...

Two to Tango: Co-evolution of Hominid Natural Killer Cell Receptors and MHC

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells have diverse roles in hominid immunity and reproduction. Modulating these functions are the interactions between major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules that are ligands for two NK cell surface receptor types ...

A minor high‐grade component in non‐invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma is not associated with a more indolent behaviour

Histopathology, Volume 88, Issue 7, Page 1430-1442, June 2026.
Non‐invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas with minor high‐grade component are not associated with a more indolent behavior and should likely be regarded as high‐grade carcinomas. Aims The latest WHO edition proposed using a cut‐off of ≥5% high‐grade component (%HGc) as a criterion to label non‐invasive papillary urothelial carcinomas as high‐grade ...

Distribution of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) and their HLA-C ligands in two Iranian populations [PDF]

, 2009
Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) gene frequencies vary between populations and contribute to functional variation in immune responses to viruses, autoimmunity and reproductive success.

kir‐mapper: A Toolkit for Killer‐Cell Immunoglobulin‐Like Receptor (KIR) Genotyping From Short‐Read Second‐Generation Sequencing Data

HLA
ABSTRACTKiller cell immunoglobulin‐like receptors (KIRs) regulate natural killer (NK) cell responses by activating or inhibiting their functions. Genotyping KIR genes from short‐read second‐generation sequencing data remains challenging as cross‐alignments among genes and alignment failure arise from gene similarities and extreme polymorphism.

Association of killer immunoglobulin-like receptor genotypes and haplotypes with acute lymphoblastic leukemia risk

Innate Immunity
Background Killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) are key molecules used by natural killer (NK) cells to interact with target cells. These receptors exhibit extensive genotypic polymorphism which has been associated with varying outcomes in immune ...

Relevance of KIR gene polymorphisms in bone marrow transplantation outcome

, 2002
International audienceNatural Killer (NK) cells may be involved both in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) rejection and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD).

The association between killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) and KIR ligand genotypes and the likelihood of BK virus replication after kidney transplantation

Transplant International, 2016
BK virus is a common opportunistic post-transplantation viral infection. Although some risk factors have been studied in this context, the contribution of NK cells has not been assessed in detail. In a group of kidney transplant recipients, we studied the association between (i) the likelihood of BK virus replication during the two-year period after ...
