Seeds to success: Growing heavy black holes in dense star clusters

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The observational dearth of black holes (BHs) with masses between ∼100 and 100 000 M⊙ raises questions about the nature of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs).

Improvement of Sickle Cell Disease Care Mitigates the Healthcare Utilization Induced by Increased Prevalence: Experience of a Tertiary Pediatric Center

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) has undergone major changes in the last decades. Its prevalence has been steadily increasing and numerous advances have been made in the management of the disease. However, the effect in real‐life setting of these major changes is unknown, particularly in a Canadian environment. Procedure We aimed to assess

Evidence for Evolved Stellar Binary Mergers in Observed B-type Blue Supergiants

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Blue supergiants are the brightest stars in their host galaxies, and yet their evolutionary status has been a long-standing problem in stellar astrophysics.

Portrait of a Galaxy on FIRE: Exploring α-bimodality as a consequence of inside-out disc growth in a hierarchical formation scenario

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The chemical dichotomy in the [α/Fe]-[Fe/H] plane, such as the one observed in the stellar Milky Way disc, is a consequence of the complex processes underlying the formation and evolution of disc galaxies. Aims.

Secretory Phospholipase A2 in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease Hospitalized for Vaso‐Occlusive Pain Episodes

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is an inflammatory mediator linked to acute chest syndrome (ACS) in sickle cell disease (SCD), a serious complication that can develop during an acute vaso‐occlusive pain episode (VOE). Plasma sPLA2 levels have been proposed as a potential biomarker for predicting ACS onset.

The Impact of Stellar Populations on the Dynamics of Merger Remnants

open access: yes, 2009
Many studies and simulations suggest gas-rich mergers do not contribute significantly to the overall star-formation rate and total mass function of galaxies. The velocity dispersions (sigma) of Luminous & Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies measured using the 1.62 or 2.29 micron CO bandheads imply they will form m < m* ellipticals.

Azimuthal Misalignments in Stellar Warp Structure as Dynamical Tracers of Mergers in Milky Way–like Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We investigate the origin of warps in stellar disks using high-resolution Milky Way analogs from the IllustrisTNG50 simulation. Focusing on galaxies that experienced a major merger, we identify a characteristic azimuthal misalignment between the warp ...

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Probing Binary Black Hole Formation Channels through Cosmic Large-scale Structure

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The growing number of binary black hole mergers detected through gravitational waves offers unprecedented insight into their underlying population, yet their astrophysical formation channels remain unresolved.
