Current evidence on the association of tongue strength with cognitive decline in older adults and the known risk factors of frailty, sarcopenia and nutritional health: a scoping review protocol

open access: yesBMJ Open, 2023
Introduction Evidence suggests that the pathology underlying cognitive decline leading to dementia begins 15–20 years before cognitive symptoms emerge. Thus, identifying biomarkers in this preclinical phase is critically important.

Through-grid wicking enables high-speed cryoEM specimen preparation

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Blotting times for conventional cryoEM specimen preparation complicate time-resolved studies and lead to some specimens adopting preferred orientations or denaturing at the air-water interface.

TDP-43 mislocalization drives neurofilament changes in a novel model of TDP-43 proteinopathy

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2021
Mislocalization of the TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43; encoded by TARDBP) from the nucleus to the cytoplasm is a common feature of neurodegenerative conditions such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD ...

Wicked problems or wicked people? Reconceptualising institutional abuse [PDF]

open access: yesSociology of Health & Illness, 2012
AbstractInstitutional abuse is a global issue, sometimes ascribed to the behaviour of a few wicked people. It persists despite regulatory measures, interventions from enforcement and protection agencies, organisational policies and procedures. Therefore, the accurate recognition and early detection of abuse and taking corresponding steps to deal with ...

Cap‐oPMN: Oral Inflammatory Load Quantification Using Capillary Microfluidics and Automated Image Processing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Quantifying oral polymorphonuclear neutrophils (oPMNs) is a clinically validated approach for assessing periodontal inflammation. However, current methods, such as manual hemocytometry and flow cytometry, are time‐consuming (>3 h), require invasive sampling, and depend on staining and complex instrumentation, making them unsuitable for point ...

Field experiment on a vegetation-wicking geotextile-reinforced base for a permeable sidewalk

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
Wicking geotextiles have proven effective in reducing water content in road bases under both saturated and unsaturated conditions, thereby increasing granular base strength and mitigating moisture-related damage to the pavement.
