Modeling the impact of extreme weather events and future climate on the radiologically contaminated sites of Enewetak Atoll.

Enewetak Atoll underwent 43 historical nuclear tests from 1948 to 1958, including the first hydrogen bomb test, resulting in a substantial nuclear material fallout contaminating the Atoll and the lagoon waters. The radionuclide fallout material deposited in lagoon sediments and soil on the islands will remain for decades to come. With intensifying climate and extreme weather events, the possibility of redistribution of deposited radionuclide material has become a great concern.

Role of multi-parametric ultrasonography for the assessment and monitoring of functional status of renal allografts with histopathological correlation.

Background: The study focuses on the use of multi-parametric ultrasound [gray scale, color Doppler and shear wave elastography (SWE)] to differentiate stable renal allografts from acute graft dysfunction and to assess time-dependent changes in parenchymal stiffness, thereby assessing its use as an efficient monitoring tool for ongoing graft dysfunction. To date, biopsy is the gold standard for evaluation of acute graft dysfunction. However, because it is invasive, it carries certain risks and cannot be used for follow-up monitoring.

Voices of Nanomedicine: Blueprint Guidelines for Collaboration in Addressing Global Unmet Medical Needs.

The "" under this Perspective underline the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and partnerships across several disciplines, such as medical science and technology, medicine, bioengineering, and computational approaches, in bridging the gap between research, manufacturing, and clinical applications. Effective communication is key to bridging team gaps, enhancing trust, and resolving conflicts, thereby fostering teamwork and individual growth toward shared goals. Drawing from the success of the COVID-19 vaccine development, we advocate the application of similar collaborative models in other complex health areas such as nanomedicine and biomedical engineering.

The Cleveland Clinic experience of eosinophilic myocarditis in the setting of hypereosinophilic syndrome: demographics, cardiac imaging, and outcomes.

Background: Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) represents a group of disorders with eosinophil-mediated end-organ damage. Eosinophilic myocarditis (EM) represents cardiac involvement in HES. Data are limited regarding this rare condition.

Elucidating the binding specificity of interactive compounds targeting ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2).

The ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily plays a pivotal role in cellular detoxification and drug efflux. ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2 (ABCG2) referred to as the Breast cancer resistance protein has emerged as a key member involved in multidrug resistance displayed by cancer cells. Understanding the molecular basis of substrate and inhibitor recognition, and binding within the transmembrane domain of ABCG2 is crucial for the development of effective therapeutic strategies.
