Effects of Dalcroze Eurhythmics Exercise Versus Multicomponent Exercise on Physical and Cognitive Function, and Falls in Older Adults: The EPHYCOS Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
In this randomized clinical trial conducted among 142 community‐dwelling older adults at high risk for falls over 12 months, a Dalcroze Eurhythmics exercise intervention (once weekly, group‐based) improved a variety of physical and cognitive/executive function outcomes compared with a multicomponent exercise intervention (twice weekly, group‐ and home ...

Quality aspects of vocational higher education, with special reference to hospitality management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Quality in vocational higher education was investigated, using hospitality management as the focus. The definitions, measurement and improvement of quality (including bench marking) were explored. An analysis of the literature on quality in higher education, using books, journal articles and publications from official bodies was made and reported in ...

Preventive Effect of Metformin in Radiation‐Induced Xerostomia

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Head and neck cancer patients who received radiotherapy complain of severe dry mouth due to damage to the salivary glands. Metformin is an antidiabetic drug, but its radio‐protective effect has been reported. It is confirmed that metformin protects the salivary glands from radiation and provides evidence for the use of metformin in cancer treatment in ...

Mechanical Loading of Osteocytes via Oscillatory Fluid Flow Regulates Early‐Stage PC‐3 Prostate Cancer Metastasis to Bone

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
In this study, the authors show that osteocytes, mechanosensing cells embedded within bone, can indeed regulate prostate cancer cell extravasation through a blood vessel using a physiologically relevant tissue model. Specifically, it is shown that osteocytes modulate the expression of blood vessel cell adhesion molecules, affecting the frequency at ...

Elasticity of Diametrically Compressed Microfabricated Woodpile Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Modulus–porosity relationship is derived for woodpile lattices with struts under diametrical compression. The formula presented here that Young's modulus is proportional to the square of the volume fraction E˜ρ2$E \sim \left(\rho\right)^{2}$ is shown to be consistent with computations and laboratory experiments on 3D‐printed samples.

FAIR and Structured Data: A Domain Ontology Aligned with Standard‐Compliant Tensile Testing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The digitalization in materials science and engineering is discussed, emphasizing the importance of digital workflows and ontologies in managing diverse experimental data. Challenges such as quality assurance and data interoperability are tackled with semantic web technologies, focusing and introducing the tensile test ontology (TTO).
