Nut Consumption and Sperm Quality in Healthy Men: Results From the Led‐Fertyl Study

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nuts are rich in antioxidants and other bioactive compounds, and recent evidence suggests that their regular consumption may be associated with sperm quality. However, the current scientific evidence remains limited and inconsistent.

Diverging in Vivo Immune Response Patterns After Oral Food Challenge in Peanut Allergic Adults

Clinical &Experimental Allergy, EarlyView.
After the oral food challenge, peanut (PN)‐allergic adults were monitored over 4 weeks, which revealed diverging immune response patterns, with strong responders (SR) exhibiting heightened Ara h 2+ B cell expansion, PN sIgE induction and increasing PN‐specific Tconv. Weak responders (WR) had more activated PN‐specific Tregs.

Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

Effect of in‐office bleaching on the color stability of bulk‐fill resin composites immersed in staining beverages

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the impact of in‐office bleaching on color stability of bulk‐fill composites submitted to staining. Bulk‐fill (Aura, Opus, and Filtek One) and nanofilled (Filtek Z350) composite specimens were submitted to the following: control (CT); bleaching and immersion in distilled water (BL); and bleaching with daily 15‐min ...

Improving spine‐based age estimation in centrarchid fishes using otolith‐derived training sets

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Nonlethal age determination is a priority in fish biology contexts where sacrifice is restricted, but estimates derived from nonlethally attainable structures tend to suffer from poor precision and accuracy relative to necessarily lethal, otolith‐derived estimates.

Radical dystopia: The comic modernism of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty‐Four

Orbis Litterarum, EarlyView.
Abstract The present essay turns the received view of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty‐Four on its head, arguing that Orwell's dystopian classic mobilizes the modernist techniques of T. S. Eliot's The Waste Land to lampoon the ideological fatalism of Eliot and other cultural conservatives.

Field Trials and Baking Studies of Ultra‐Low Asparagine, Genome Edited (CRISPR/Cas9) and Mutant (TILLING) Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Field trials were conducted of wheat (Triticum aestivum) cv. Cadenza in which asparagine synthetase gene, TaASN2, had been knocked out, either on its own or together with a partial knockout of the related gene, TaASN1, using CRISPR/Cas9. Chemical mutagenesis (TILLING) TaASN2 nulls in the Claire background were also included.

The Construction of Compliance with the European Union Deforestation Regulation in Global Coffee Value Chains

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The European Union's Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) obliges the importers and users of seven agricultural commodities to achieve supply chain traceability and prevent deforestation‐linked products from entering the EU market. This paper investigates how companies and producing countries in the coffee sector prepared for EUDR compliance by ...

Grounds for Accountability: Preparedness for Supply Chain Due Diligence Legislation in Canada

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Canada is under growing pressure to adopt mandatory supply chain due diligence legislation to hold corporations accountable for environmental and social harms embedded in global supply chains. In response, the Government of Canada is exploring policy options for stricter supply chain regulations, including legislative measures such as the ...
