Potential Biomarkers for Disease Stratification and Prognosis Prediction in Pediatric Asthma: LCN2, sST2 and FGF21

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric asthma is a common chronic airway inflammatory disease, where accurate assessment of disease severity and prognosis prediction is crucial for treatment decisions. Currently, there is a lack of precise and effective biomarkers.

Pulsed Quantum Excitation

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This manuscript demonstrates the improvements that single photon sources can gain if their source of excitation is quantum rather than classical. Illuminating a pair of identical two‐level systems, the author shows that the excitation with pulses of quantum light yields more antibunched and more indistinguishable emission than if the excitation were ...

Clinical and prognostic significance of biomarker ratios in patients with heart failure and concomitant atrial fibrillation and diabetes mellitus

open access: yesMìžnarodnij Endokrinologìčnij Žurnal
Background. Heart failure (HF) in combination with atrial fibrillation (AF) and diabetes mellitus (DM) significantly worsens the prognosis of patients, increasing the risk of rehospitali­zations and mortality.

Biomarkers Beyond the Natriuretic Peptides for Chronic Heart Failure: Galectin-3 and Soluble ST2. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and NT-proBNP are widely used plasma biomarkers for the diagnosis of acute decompensated heart failure and prognosis for future cardiac disease.

Mast cell subsets and their functional modulation by the Acanthocheilonema viteae product ES-62 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
ES-62, an immunomodulator secreted by filarial nematodes, exhibits therapeutic potential in mouse models of allergic inflammation, at least in part by inducing the desensitisation of Fc휀RI-mediated mast cell responses.

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV): A Comprehensive Overview From Basic Biology to Clinical Prevention and Control

open access: yesMedicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

Elevated Levels of Soluble ST2 were Associated with Rheumatoid Arthritis Disease Activity and Ameliorated Inflammation in Synovial Fibroblasts

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2018
Background: Much evidence has demonstrated that interleukin (IL)-33 plays an important role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, there have been limited studies about soluble ST2, a receptor for IL-33, in RA.

Sharp large deviations for some hyperbolic systems

open access: yes, 2012
We prove a sharp large deviation principle concerning intervals shrinking with sub-exponential speed for certain models involving the Poincar\'e map related to a Markov family for an Axiom A flow restricted to a basic set $\Lambda$ satisfying some ...

A step into the shadows: Evolutionary shifts in fruit structure and dispersal strategies in Asian mycoheterotrophic Ericaceae

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
This study examines how the fruits of non‐photosynthetic forest plants in the Monotropoideae (Ericaceae) have evolved into the diversity observed today. By analyzing four Asian species, we identified a shift from dry, dehiscent fruits that release seeds into the air to fleshy, berry‐like fruits adapted for animal dispersal.
