As rapid urbanization intensified pressure on coastal ecosystems, balancing economic development with ecological preservation remained a critical challenge. This study developed a multi-criteria framework for integrated marine spatial planning and applied it to Shenzhen, China—a rapidly expanding coastal metropolis overseeing 1145 km2 of marine territory with a 260.5 km coastline, 61.47% of which

In recent years, considerable advancements have been made in developing in vitro models to better understand the complex dynamics of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and its critical role in neurological health and disease. Incorporating astrocytes into these models introduces an essential layer of complexity, allowing for a more comprehensive investigation of the cellular interactions and regulatory

Background and objective: The European Association of Urology (EAU) renal cell carcinoma (RCC) guideline panel has updated their evidence-based guidelines and recommendations for the management of RCC. Here we present a summary of the 2025 RCC guidelines updated with standardised methodology to provide reproducible evidence for the management of RCC. Methods: For the 2025 update, a literature sear

Dating the bottommost section of an ice core is often complicated by strong layer thinning and possible disturbances in the stratigraphy. The radioactive decay of atmospherically produced 36Cl and 10Be can provide age estimates, where traditional methods can no longer be used. In this study, we investigated ice from the bottom of the Skytrain ice core, which was drilled in West Antarctica next to

BACKGROUND: Several studies have examined the effect of community interventions on youth alcohol consumption, and the results have often been mixed. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a community intervention known as the Öckerö Method on adolescent alcohol consumption and perceived parental attitudes towards adolescent drinking. METHOD: The study is based on a quasi-experim

Parids are well-known birds both in Europe and North America. Despite being arboreal foragers of similar size, there is a striking dichotomy in the wintering strategies in the family. Most species are food hoarding specialists that store large amounts of winter food in autumn. A small stable group will then defend a large winter territory in which they store food. From a cognition perspective thes

Synucleinopathies and tauopathies are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the pathological accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) and tau proteins, respectively. These disorders are traditionally managed with symptomatic treatments without addressing the underlying pathologies. Recent advancements in passive immunotherapies, notably the FDA approval of the amyloid-beta (Aβ)-targeting antibod

Methylglyoxal (MG) is a reactive and toxic compound produced in carbohydrate, lipid, and amino acid metabolism. The glyoxalase system is the main detoxifying route for MG and consists of two enzymes, glyoxalase I (GlxI) and glyoxalase II (GlxII). GlxI catalyzes the formation of S-d-lactoylglutathione from hemithioacetal, and GlxII converts this intermediate to d-lactate. A relationship between the

Kidney transplant candidates may be incompatible with their intended living donors because of the presence of antibodies against HLA and/or ABO. To increase the possibility of finding an acceptable kidney donor for these patients, the Scandiatransplant Exchange Program (STEP) program within Scandiatransplant was launched in 2019. Methods. This is a retrospective review of our experiences from the
