Neutrophil-related gene expression profile is associated with future paediatric bronchiectasis exacerbationsNARA Subscribed
Acute respiratory exacerbations in bronchiectasis are important as they impair quality of life and are associated with accelerated lung function decline. Yet, no validated methods exist to identify children at increased risk of exacerbations. We therefore determined if peripheral blood gene expression (GE) signatures can identify those at risk of an impending exacerbation. Thirty-one children with bronchiectasis had RNA extrac...
Multiple Strains of Trichomonas gallinae are Widespread in Reservoir Hosts and Environmental Resources in UK FarmlandNARA Subscribed
Understanding transmission routes of parasites and pathogens is critical for the development of control measures and mitigation of impacts on host populations. Trichomonas gallinae is a widespread parasite in columbids worldwide, and has emerged as a lethal disease in passerines, particularly finches. The postulated transmission route from columbids to passerines via spillover at shared resources has not yet been empirically t...
Motivation The database initiated by the Mountain Invasion Research Network (MIREN) is one of the few globally implemented standardized vegetation surveys in mountains. The focus is on collecting plant species occurrences at 5‐year intervals along and adjacent to mountain roads spanning elevational gradients, with the goal of providing critical information about the ongoing spread of non‐native plants and the potential impacts...
Quantifying the Viscoelastic Properties of Pancreatic Tissue: A Comparative Study of Human, Porcine and Engineered HydrogelNARA Subscribed
Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is among the most complex abdominal procedures, with a leak from the pancreatic anastomosis (postoperative pancreatic fistula, POPF) continuing to be a major source of morbidity and mortality. The mechanical characteristics of the pancreas, particularly tissue texture, are closely linked to POPF risk, yet remain poorly defined, limiting the accuracy of currently available training models. This study...
