One Health in Medical Education: A Proposed Framework.

The One Health concept focuses on the interconnections between human health, animal health, and the environment, stressing the need for interdisciplinary collaborations to address complex issues such as the health challenges posed by climate change and global pandemics. One Health is a central part of the curriculum of veterinary schools, however, it is rarely incorporated into medical school education. Nationally, there are limited examples of formal One Health education and training for medical students.

Analysis of the performance of a new concept for automatic draping of wide reinforcement fabrics with pre-shear: A virtual prototyping study.

The layup process of large composite structures made from dry reinforcement fabrics is considered. One such structure is a wind turbine blade, for which the current draping process is mostly manual. Automating the draping process will, therefore, lower the costs.

Exocyst inactivation in urothelial cells disrupts autophagy and activates non-canonical NF-κB signaling.

Ureter obstruction is a highly prevalent event during embryonic development and is a major cause of pediatric kidney disease. We have previously reported that ureteric bud-specific ablation of the gene expressing the exocyst subunit EXOC5 in late murine gestation results in failure of urothelial stratification, cell death and complete ureter obstruction. However, the mechanistic connection between disrupted exocyst activity, urothelial cell death and subsequent ureter obstruction was unclear.

Bifurcations and limit cycles in cytosolic yeast calcium.

Calcium homeostasis is a fundamental cellular process in yeast. The regulation of the cytosolic calcium concentration is required for volume preservation and to regulate many vital calcium dependent processes such as mating and response to stress. The homeostatic mechanism is often studied by applying calcium pulses: sharply changing the calcium concentration in the yeast environment and observing the cellular response.

Brain activation in the chronic phase of traumatic spinal cord injury.

Study Design: Cross-sectional clinical study.

Objectives: Plastic changes within cortical areas occur after traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI). The aim of the study was to assess cortical activation in the chronic phase of TSCI using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
