Determinants of Improved Dyspnea and Exercise Tolerance With Nasal High‐Flow O2 Therapy in Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease: A Pilot Physiological Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We tested the respective effect of high‐flow and supplemental O2 from nasal high‐flow O2 therapy (NHFO2) on dyspnea and exercise tolerance in fibrotic interstitial lung disease. Supplemental O2 and NHFO2 (but not high‐flow) provided improvements in these outcomes at “iso‐O2 saturation” due to reduced ventilatory requirements.

Validation of the Milan Score Using Prolonged Wireless PH Monitoring

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Milan Score, a high‐resolution manometry‐derived tool, predicts pathological GERD on 96‐h wireless pH monitoring with high specificity and positive predictive value, maintaining robust discriminative performance across both typical and atypical symptom profiles and outperforming single HRM parameters as a standalone manometric parameter.

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.

Ecological and genomic variation in ectomycorrhizal fungal exploration types

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EMF) produce mycelia with variable extension and complexity, which can be classified according to soil ‘exploration types’ (ETs). ETs have received attention as one of the few mycorrhizal trait frameworks, but without an empirical classification of ET functional diversity and environmental preferences, understanding and ...
