Mucin-Based Dual Cross-Linkable IPN Hydrogel Bioink for 3D Bioprinting and Cartilage Tissue Engineering.

The cartilage possesses limited regenerative capacity, necessitating advanced approaches for its repair. This study introduces a bioink designed for cartilage tissue engineering (TE) by incorporating ionically cross-linkable alginate into the photo-cross-linkable MuMA bioink, resulting in a double cross-linked interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel. Additionally, hyaluronic acid (HA), a natural component of cartilage and synovial fluid, was added to enhance the scaffold's properties.

Amplitude modulation structure in French and German poetry: universal acoustic physical structures underpin different poetic rhythm structures.

French and German poetry are classically considered to utilize fundamentally different linguistic structures to create rhythmic regularity. Their metrical rhythm structures are considered poetically to be very different. However, the biophysical and neurophysiological constraints upon the speakers of these poems are highly similar.

Infant low-frequency EEG cortical power, cortical tracking and phase-amplitude coupling predicts language a year later.

Cortical signals have been shown to track acoustic and linguistic properties of continuous speech. This phenomenon has been measured in both children and adults, reflecting speech understanding by adults as well as cognitive functions such as attention and prediction. Furthermore, atypical low-frequency cortical tracking of speech is found in children with phonological difficulties (developmental dyslexia).

Clinical Outcomes of Lung Transplant Recipients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome and Short Telomere Syndrome-Case Series.

Limited data exists concerning the post lung transplantation outcomes of patients diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We delineate the clinical trajectories and outcomes for 3 patients with MDS and Short Telomere Syndrome (STS) who underwent lung transplantation. Our findings suggest that patients with STS and low-risk MDS, especially those harboring the SF3B1 mutation, tolerated standard immunosuppression and antimicrobial prophylaxis well without significant deviation from a typical post-transplant course.

Imitation of Multisyllabic Items by Children With Developmental Language Disorder: Evidence for Word-Level Atypical Speech Envelope and Pitch Contours.

Purpose: Developmental language disorder (DLD) is a multifaceted disorder. Recently, interest has grown in prosodic aspects of DLD, but most investigations of possible prosodic causes focus on speech perception tasks. Here, we focus on speech production from a speech amplitude envelope (AE) perspective.
