Open or closed: Experience of head and neck radiotherapy masks – A mixed‐methods study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 74-84, March 2025.
Patients with head and neck cancer received radiotherapy alternately with an open and a closed mask. The closed mask was perceived as more confining and restrictive, but it was also considered to make it easier to quickly achieve the correct position, while the open mask was perceived as less stable, although it reduced the feeling of claustrophobia ...

Investigating the bHLH transcription factor TSARL1 as marker and regulator of saponin biosynthesis in Chenopodium quinoa

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) is valued for its nutritional benefits and resilience to abiotic stresses. However, its commercial use is limited by bitter‐tasting saponins on the seeds, necessitating resource‐intensive removal processes.

Stochastic Attribute-Value Grammars

open access: yesComputational Linguistics, 1996
Probabilistic analogues of regular and context-free grammars are well-known in computational linguistics, and currently the subject of intensive research. To date, however, no satisfactory probabilistic analogue of attribute-value grammars has been proposed: previous attempts have failed to define a correct parameter-estimation algorithm.

Small‐scale thermal habitat variability may not determine seagrass resilience to climate change

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrass ecosystems are integral components of coastal marine environments, but they face global threats from climate change. The ability of seagrass to withstand these challenges depends on trait variation among individuals, which is influenced by genetic background and plasticity.

EFNB3 Frameshift Variant in Weimaraner Dogs with a Condition Resembling a Congenital Mirror Movement Disorder

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Congenital mirror movement disorders (CMMs) are clinically and genetically heterogeneous in human patients. CMMs have not been documented to occur spontaneously in animals. Objective The objective of this work was to document the first case of CMMs spontaneously occurring in Weimaraner dogs and to identify the underlying genetic ...

Protective Effects of Human Milk Oligosaccharides (hMOs) on Analgesic, Nonsteroidal Anti‐inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)‐Induced Disruption of Gut Barrier Integrity in Cocultures Mimicking Neuro‐Gut Epithelial Cell Crosstalk

open access: yesMolecular Nutrition &Food Research, EarlyView.
Nerve cells partially mitigate indomethacin‐induced tight junction dysregulation in neuro‐gut epithelial cell cocultures. Human milk oligosaccharides 2′‐ and 3‐fucosyllactose (2′‐FL and 3‐FL) protect the neuro‐gut epithelial barrier from indomethacin‐induced damage. This protection is stronger in cocultures with higher nerve cell densities.
