The role of the host—Neutrophil biology

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...

‘Reservoir dogs’: The emerging zoonotic risk associated with European dog imports to the UK

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The movement of dogs from continental Europe to the UK poses a growing public health threat due to the associated risk of disease incursions. Current legislation is insufficient to address the risks and pre‐import control measures are focused only on rabies virus and the fox tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis. Methods We conducted

Synthetic Aperture Radar and Optical Remote Sensing of Crop Damage Attributed to Severe Weather in the Central United States [PDF]

open access: yes
Damaging hail and wind from severe thunderstorms threatens agricultural areas annually, especially across the central United States where agriculture is prevalent. On average, these storms produce $160 to $580 million worth of damage in the US every year

A thermoplastic microfluidic platform with integrated electrospun scaffolds for assessing brain cell‐specific drug selectivity

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the microfluidic platform with its advantages. Abstract A major challenge in pharmacology is the limited selectivity of therapeutic compounds toward specific tissues or cells. Drugs often distribute systemically before reaching the intended site of action, affecting nontarget cells and potentially reducing efficacy or ...

Endoscope‐Assisted Nipple‐Sparing Mastectomy With Immediate Implant Reconstruction: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Breast cancer surgery increasingly favors nipple‐sparing and endoscopic techniques to optimize oncological safety, cosmetic outcomes, and patient satisfaction. We aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical efficacy and postoperative safety profiles of endoscope‐assisted and conventional open approaches for nipple‐sparing mastectomy with immediate ...

Variation in food availability affects the population age structure of Atlantic puffins Fratercula arctica in the Faroe Islands

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Across their entire Atlantic breeding range, Atlantic puffins Fratercula arctica have experienced decreases in food availability, often leading to population declines. The species is one of the most numerous seabirds in Føroyar (the Faroe Islands, in English) but has faced apparent, unquantified population declines.

Accurate Transponder Calibrations with the Novel Three-Transponder Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Transponders are, besides trihedral corner reflectors, the most commonly used measurement standards in radiometric SAR calibration. They allow signal recording for the reconstruction of the azimuth pattern of the SAR system, adjustments of the ...
