The As and Bs of titi monkey linguistics: why emotional communication is not the enemy
ABSTRACT The alarm call sequences of titi monkeys (genera Plecturocebus, Callicebus and Cheracebus) have sparked important debates over whether they exhibit parallels with human language. Some researchers consider these sequences to involve both semantics and syntax, while others argue that the sequences convey semantic information without syntax.

ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned

Metabolic syndrome does not affect sustained virologic response of direct-acting antivirals while hepatitis C clearance improves hemoglobin A1c. [PDF]
AimTo determine whether successful treatment with directacting antivirals (DAA) is associated with improvements in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and if type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) or metabolic syndrome affects sustained virologic response (SVR).MethodsWe ...

Drop-out rate from the liver transplant waiting list due to HCC progression in HCV-infected patients treated with direct acting antivirals. [PDF]
BACKGROUND & AIM: concerns about an increased hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence rate following directly acting antiviral (DAA) therapy in cirrhotic patients with a prior complete oncological response have been raised. Data regarding the impact of

Nonzero Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Even after Sustained Virological Response
Approximately 130 to 150 million people are chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the world. HCV infection is a major cause of chronic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The existence of hepatitis C— originally identifiable only as a type of non-A, non-B hepatitis— was suggested in the 1970s and proven in 1989.

Effect of cell retention techniques in Komagataella phaffii lab‐scale continuous processes
Abstract Perfusion technologies play a growing role in the implementation of continuous processes for biotherapeutics production in mammalian‐based manufacturing. However, their application to alternative production hosts is limited. Cell retention systems are of key importance for the efficiency of perfusion bioreactors.

Viral dynamics of acute HIV-1 infection. [PDF]
Viral dynamics were intensively investigated in eight patients with acute HIV infection to define the earliest rates of change in plasma HIV RNA before and after the start of antiretroviral therapy. We report the first estimates of the basic reproductive

Role of antiviral therapy in the natural history of hepatitis B virus-related chronic liver disease [PDF]
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a dynamic state of interactions among HBV, hepatocytes, and the host immune system. Natural history studies of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection have shown an association between active viral replication and adverse
