Decoding Viral Transmission Dynamics in Structured Populations Using a Microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip Platform

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A microfluidic Herd‐Immunity‐on‐a‐Chip experimentally recreates structured contact networks to quantify viral transmission dynamics. By controlling susceptible, infected, and non‐susceptible populations, the platform reveals how contact topology governs the reproduction number, outbreak propagation, herd‐immunity–like behavior, and intervention ...

Modulation of the TGF‐β/Smad Signaling Pathway by a Bioactive Oxidized Polygonati Rhizoma Polysaccharide Crosslinked Chitosan Hydrogel as Therapeutic Carrier for Parkinson's Disease Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An injectable, self‐healing COPRP hydrogel integrates structurally defined oxidized Polygonati rhizoma polysaccharide with carboxymethyl chitosan through dynamic Schiff‐base crosslinking. The bioactive matrix scavenges reactive oxygen species, suppresses neuroinflammation, protects dopaminergic neurons, and supports sustained levodopa release.

Assessment of Uterocervical Angle as a predictor of spontaneous preterm birth

Orapuh Journal
Introduction The changes in the “uterocervical angle (UCA)” have been reported to play a crucial role in “spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB)”. Purpose The study aimed “to determine whether the UCA correlates with the risk of early 28-34 weeks and

Balancing Shading and Resistive Losses: 33% Efficient Perovskite/Silicon Tandem Solar Cells via Front‐Electrode Engineering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Front‐electrode co‐optimization combining tungsten‐doped indium oxide (IWO) transparent electrode and simulation‐guided metal grid geometry boosts perovskite/silicon tandem solar cell performance. The low work function IWO improves interfacial carrier extraction, while tailored grid parameters balance optical shading and electrical resistive losses ...

Uterocervical angle as a predictor for spontaneous singleton preterm birth: a prospective observational study

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology
Background The use of cervical length (CL) to predict spontaneous preterm birth (sPTB) is limited in performance due to the low prevalence of a short cervix in the Thai population.

Different Angiogenic Potentials of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Umbilical Artery, Umbilical Vein, and Wharton’s Jelly

Stem Cells International, 2017
Human mesenchymal stem cells derived from the umbilical cord (UC) are a favorable source for allogeneic cell therapy. Here, we successfully isolated the stem cells derived from three different compartments of the human UC, including perivascular stem ...

Anterior Uterocervical Angle and Prediction of Preterm Labor in Cases with an Inconclusive Cervical Length: A Prospective Cohort Pilot Study

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2023
Background: Cervical length measurement is still the most widely used method to predict preterm labor. Recent studies have reported that in addition to cervical length, uterocervical angle (UCA) may also be useful in predicting preterm labor.

Chromosomal Abnormalities, Drug Sensitivity and Resistance in Hematological Malignancies: A Comprehensive Overview by the Francophone Group of Hematological Cytogenetics (GFCH)

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chromosomal abnormalities have a major clinical impact on hematological malignancies, particularly with regard to treatment strategies. To preserve and consolidate fundamental knowledge in this rapidly evolving field, the Francophone Group of Hematological Cytogenetics (Groupe Francophone de Cytogénétique Hématologique, GFCH) conducted a ...

Measurement of preprandial and postprandial urine calcium to creatinine ratios in male Miniature Schnauzers with and without urolithiasis

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2020
Background We aimed to identify a simple test for excessive calciuresis and predict calcium oxalate (CaOx) disease in Miniature Schnauzers. We investigated the impact of postprandial time on the urine calcium to creatinine ratio (UCa/Cr) in male dogs of ...

Addressing racialised awarding gap in higher education: Insights from personal tutors

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Situated within a wider cross‐institutional research project, this article provides an in‐depth case study of one higher education (HE) institution, focusing on how personal tutors make sense of racialised degree awarding disparities for both undergraduate and postgraduate students, how they perceive their responsibilities, the challenges and ...
