Background: The COVID-19 pandemic demanded evidence synthesis approaches that could keep pace with rapidly evolving science and urgent policy needs. Rapid reviews and living evidence syntheses (LES) emerged as critical methodological responses, yet limited guidance exists for teams undertaking such work, particularly regarding the operational challenges o ...

Transwell co-culture systems are models for examining cellular crosstalk, but the impact of porous membrane material on myogenic outcomes remains uncharacterized. We investigated the influence of transwell membrane material on myoblast differentiation in co-culture with human primary adipocytes and in varying concentrations of insulin-transferrin-selenium ...

Cytokinesis, the final step of cell division, relies on ingression of a precisely positioned actomyosin ring. Chromatin-associated Ran-GTP fine-tunes ring position, although the mechanism remains unclear. We hypothesize that depletion of Ran-GTP between segregating chromosomes leads to equatorial enrichment of importins, promoting recruitment of the scaff ...

Antioxidants added to tires to prevent degradation have recently been recognized as emerging environmental contaminants. While their acute aquatic toxicity has raised concern, these compounds are also emitted to the atmosphere and can be associated with particulate matter (PM). On PM they can rea ...

Homelessness remains an enduring social issue, in part, due to the stigmatization of and discrimination toward people experiencing homelessness, known as homeism. Despite extant research on the topic, little is known about how homeism, enacted through stigmatization and discrimination, may occur within transitional housing programs or among older people e ...

Intranasal administration of oxytocin has been shown to enhance social cognition and reduce stress reactivity in healthy individuals, suggesting therapeutic potential for mental disorders. However, clinical trials have produced mixed results. Following a systematic search, data were extracted fro ...

Many non-coding variants influence complex traits and diseases through gene regulation, yet the mechanisms linking these variants to downstream biology remain poorly understood. Here, we present eQTLGen Phase 2, a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of gene expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL ...

Introduction: It is unknown whether progressive resistance training (PRT) improves cognitive function in adults with cerebral small vessel disease and mild cognitive impairment (i.e., subcortical vascular cognitive impairment [SVCI]). Methods: We conducted a 12-month randomized trial comparing P ...

This work implements deep learning models to capture non-linear and complex data behavior in aluminum price data. Deep learning models include the long short-term memory (LSTM) and deep feedforward neural networks (FFNN). The support vector regression (SVR) is employed as a base model for comparison. Each predictive model is tuned by using two different o ...

Biological denitrification is limited by slow nitrate (NO3-) reduction due to low electron transfer efficiency, unsatisfactory community functional efficiency and insufficient metabolic activity of microbial communities. To overcome these challenges, Ni2+ and Fe2+ were incorporated with gallic acid (GA) to form bimetallic polyphenol networks (NiFeGA BPNs) ...

Cortical oscillations across sleep-wake cycles are essential for coordinating functional brain dynamics. High-density electroencephalography (HDEEG) combined with electrical source imaging (ESI) provides a noninvasive approach to map cortical dynamics; however, its ability to capture spatial ongo ...
