Incidence and Risk Factors for Chyle Leaks after Neuroblastic Tumor Resection: A Systematic Review of Published Studies
<p>Background <br></p><p>Chyle leakage / ascites after surgical resection of neuroblastic tumors may delay the start of chemotherapy and worsen prognosis. Previous studies have reported a highly variable incidence and risk ... -
The first X-ray polarimetric observation of the black hole binary LMC X-1
<p>We report on an X-ray polarimetric observation of the high-mass X-ray binary LMC X-1 in the high/soft state, obtained by the <em>Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer</em> (IXPE) in 2022 October. The measured polarization ... -
Speech disfluencies in typically developing Finnish-speaking children - preliminary results
We investigated the speech disfluencies of 54 typically fluent Finnish-speaking children: 14 children randomly selected from a longitudinal study (age levels 2, 3, and 4 years), and 40 children from a cross-sectional study ... -
Dynamics of core-excited ammonia: disentangling fragmentation pathways by complementary spectroscopic methods
<p>Fragmentation dynamics of core-excited isolated ammonia molecules is studied by two different and complementary experimental methods, high-resolution resonant Auger spectroscopy and electron energy-selected Auger ... -
Regular Exercise Training Induces More Changes on Intestinal Glucose Uptake from Blood and Microbiota Composition in Leaner Compared to Heavier Individuals in Monozygotic Twins Discordant for BMI
<p><b>Background/Objectives:</b> Obesity impairs intestinal glucose uptake (GU) (intestinal uptake of circulating glucose from blood) and alters gut microbiome. Exercise improves intestinal insulin-stimulated GU and alters ... -
miaSim: an R/Bioconductor package to easily simulate microbial community dynamics
Microbiomes never stop changing. Their compositions and functions are shaped by the complex interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic drivers, such as growth and migration rates, species interactions, available nutrients and ... -
Probiotics Partly Suppress the Impact of Sugar Stress on the Oral Microbiota—A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial
<p>The aim was to test if probiotics counteract oral dysbiosis during 14 days of sugar stress and subsequently help restore oral homeostasis. Eighty healthy individuals received either probiotics (<em>n</em> = 40) or placebo ... -
