Preoperative Weight Trends in Adolescents Undergoing Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery

Obesity, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 710-718, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Preoperative weight changes, predictors of weight changes, and subsequent implications on postoperative BMI reduction in adolescents preparing for bariatric surgery (MBS) have not been well described. Methods Teen–Longitudinal Assessment of Bariatric Surgery (Teen‐LABS) consortium (prospective, observational MBS study at five centers

A Parameter-Adaptive Method for Primary Frequency Regulation of Grid-Forming Direct-Drive Wind Turbines

Sensors
When wind turbines contribute to system frequency support using virtual synchronous generator (VSG) control, conventional VSG methods often fall short of meeting operational demands, particularly in terms of inertia and frequency support.

The establishment of variant surface glycoprotein monoallelic expression revealed by single-cell RNA-seq of Trypanosoma brucei in the tsetse fly salivary glands.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
The long and complex Trypanosoma brucei development in the tsetse fly vector culminates when parasites gain mammalian infectivity in the salivary glands.

Evaluating Multi‐Model and Multi‐Metric Approaches to Low‐Flow Simulation in Irish Catchments

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.
Daily streamflow from 125 catchments was simulated using 47 conceptual models available in MARRMoT framework. The models were calibrated using two objective functions (log NSE and inverse KGE) focusing low flows. Model performances and choice of objective function were assessed against 18 catchment characteristics. ABSTRACT Climate change has increased

Chaperone requirements for biosynthesis of the trypanosome variant surface glycoprotein. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Trypanosoma brucei does not respond transcriptionally to several endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress conditions, including tunicamycin or dithiothreitol, indicating the absence of a conventional unfolded protein response. This suggests divergent mechanisms

Revised History of Pleistocene Vertical Motions in NE Sicily and Southern Calabria, Italy, From 40Ar/39Ar Dating and Fault Zone Morphology

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and

Modeling and Control of a Multi‐Energy Microgrid With Wind LVRT and Battery Pre‐Synchronization Strategy

Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 266-280, January 2026.
This study establishes a hybrid microgrid model integrating a Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG), a photovoltaic (PV) array, and a battery energy storage system, and proposes a coordinated control framework. The DFIG regulates DC‐bus voltage through the grid‐side converter and performs maximum power tracking via the rotor‐side converter, while the ...

Insights Into Congenital Lymphatic Anomalies Underlying Fetal Effusions

Prenatal Diagnosis, Volume 46, Issue 1, Page 3-11, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective We describe a series of pregnancies with autosomal dominant lymphedema and generalized lymphatic dysplasia in the fetus diagnosed with prenatal exome or genome sequencing. We focus on specific syndromes, fetal features, and parental symptoms to deepen our understanding of congenital lymphatic anomalies.

How Does the VSG Coat of Bloodstream Form African Trypanosomes Interact with External Proteins? [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2015
Variations on the statement "the variant surface glycoprotein (VSG) coat that covers the external face of the mammalian bloodstream form of Trypanosoma brucei acts a physical barrier" appear regularly in research articles and reviews.
