Yeast is a poikilothermic organism and adapts its lipid composition to the environmental temperature to maintain membrane physical properties. Studies addressing temperature-dependent adaptation of the lipidome have described changes in the phospholipid composition at the level of sum composition (e.g.

Introduction: Public-facing resources for non-traumatic wrist disorders (NTWD) exist, but care recipients and healthcare professionals alike are uncertain where to access the most useful resources and have raised concerns over the quality of information provided. Previous studies involving stakeholders highlight a need for quality evaluation of these resources. The aim of this study was to identify website resources accessible to UK-based online health seekers and explore their content through quality assessment.

High-resolution cross-dispersion spectrographs are widely used in spectroscopy, but the two-dimensional format of the spectrum requires sophisticated calibration, conventionally performed by illuminating the instrument with a broadband hollow-cathode lamp and cross-referencing the result to an emission-line atlas. Here, we introduce a new technique to completely calibrate a high-resolution echelle spectrograph using only a laser frequency comb. Selected individual comb lines are removed from a broadband 20 GHz laser frequency comb-revealing their exact location in the spectrograph echellogram-and wavelength-tagged with sub-fm accuracy.

Background: Neonates undergoing emergency abdominal surgery frequently require a stoma; closing this stoma with a second operation is an essential part of recovery. Timing of closure varies. Optimal timing is unclear and would be best resolved through a randomised controlled trial; such a trial is likely to be challenging.

Article Synopsis
  • Teledentistry is a virtual approach for dental examinations aimed at improving access to care, specifically for emergency scenarios in military settings.
  • One hundred subjects underwent both virtual and in-person dental examinations on the same day to assess the reliability of diagnoses made through these two methods.
  • Results indicated substantial agreement between virtual and in-person diagnoses, suggesting that teledentistry is an effective tool for emergency dental care.
