An outer membrane vesicle-associated two-track model for enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis oncogenesis. [PDF]
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis is a gut bacterium linked to bowel cancer. We propose that its toxin acts along two routes: at the cell surface, cutting the adhesion protein E‐cadherin and triggering inflammation; and inside the cell, delivered by bacterial vesicles, switching on NOD1 and cancer stem cell programs.

Track geometry quality assessments for turnouts
Turnouts are necessary, frequent and cost intensive. Despite the railway sector's focus on automation, the condition assessment of turnouts is still mostly done manually by responsible staff inspecting the turnout.

Performance-based track geometry and the track geometry interaction map
The track geometry interaction map (TGIM) is proposed as an effective way to evaluate the impact of multiple track geometry parameters on rail safety. Multi-body dynamics software has been used to simulate vehicle performance over tracks containing a large number of randomly generated lateral and vertical track geometry combinations.
