Epstein–Barr Virus, Lower Vitamin D, Low Sun Exposure, and HLA‐DRB1*1501 Risk Variant Share Common Epigenetic Pathways Leading to Multiple Sclerosis Onset

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) onset risk factors include Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) indices (including host response), lower serum 25‐vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels, low sun exposure, and HLA‐DRB1*1501. The underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here, we examined mediation through differential DNA methylation (DNAm) to better understand possible ...

Seasonal Adjustment Methods : An Application to the Turkish Monetary Aggregates [PDF]

open access: yes
Seasonality can be defined as a pattern of a time series, which repeats at regular intervals every year. Seasonal fluctuations in data make it difficult to analyse whether changes in data for a given period reflect important increases or decreases in the

Baseline Characteristics of Pristine Agricultural Pods Biochar

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The valorization of agricultural pod wastes into biochar offers a sustainable pathway for waste management and the development of functional carbonaceous materials. This study comparatively evaluates biochars produced from cocoa, flamboyant, and locust bean pods using an autothermal top‐lit updraft gasifier with retort heating, a system ...

Do Firms Smooth the Seasonal in Production in a Boom? Theory and Evidence [PDF]

open access: yes
Using disaggregated production data we show that the size of seasonal cycles changes significantly over the course of the business cycle. In particular, during periods of high economy-wide activity, some industries smooth seasonal fluctuations while ...

Ensiling and Fermentation of Rice Hulls With Ruminal Fluid for Medium‐Chain Carboxylate Production

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large quantities of rice hulls are common at milling sites in Nigeria. They are a by‐product of rice processing and can contribute to environmental degradation if not properly managed. In this study, rice hulls were pretreated by ensiling at ambient temperature and then used as substrate for medium‐chain carboxylates (MCCs) production ...

A simple and affordable protocol to assess censer seed dispersal: First confirmation of the mechanism in the genus Solanum

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The censer seed dispersal mechanism, whereby mature fruits are retained on plants and seeds dispersed by mechanical shaking, is among the most specialized wind‐aided seed dispersal strategies employed by the flowering plants. An efficient, affordable, and easily repeatable protocol for determining whether a species uses this unusual ...

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.
