The diagnostic journey of patients being investigated for myopathy in a tertiary centre in England.

Myopathies are heterogenous and can provide a diagnostic puzzle. Many patients investigated for myopathy will go on to other diagnoses. An overall understanding of how patients are investigated for suspected myopathy is lacking.

Perceiving visual events uses optical information that reflects dynamics rather than resembles appearance.

This study investigates the optical information for visual event perception. Events are objects in motion, with properties like shape, weight and surface material influencing the dynamics that shape movements and optics. The progressive transformation of visible textures, known as visual kinaesthetic information, specifies movements and objects.

Leveraging long-lasting insecticide-incorporated netting to improve fumigation efficacy against stored product insects.

Background: Long-lasting insecticide-incorporated netting (LLIN) has successfully been used to impair mobility and prevent infestation of stored grain by stored product beetles. Understanding how to integrate LLIN with existing integrated pest management (IPM) tactics, such as phosphine fumigation, can further enhance IPM programs.

Results: We used three 110 metric tons (MT) capacity grain bins, and in each, 60 perforated buckets (e.

An aberrant immune-epithelial progenitor niche drives viral lung sequelae.

The long-term physiological consequences of respiratory viral infections, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic-termed post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC)-are rapidly evolving into a major public health concern. While the cellular and molecular aetiologies of these sequelae are poorly defined, increasing evidence implicates abnormal immune responses and/or impaired organ recovery after infection. However, the precise mechanisms that link these processes in the context of PASC remain unclear.
