Development and application of a dietary program to reduce sugar intake using a living lab approach in Korea: an intervention study by Jung-Hyun Kim, Min Sook Kyung, Seul Ki Choi

“…They reported a higher intention to take interest in sugar content in food (P = 0.009) and lower-sugar recipes (P = 0.019), eat less food with high sugar content (P = 0.020), and drink water or sparkling water instead of soft drinks (P = 0.042). Nutrition knowledge did not significantly change after program participation. …”

The association between recent stressful life events and brain structure: a UK Biobank longitudinal MRI study by Cheryl R.Z. See, Annabel X. Tan, Lucia R. Valmaggia, Matthew J. Kempton

“…Conclusions Our findings suggest recent SLEs are not directly associated with an accelerated decline in brain volumes in a population sample of older adults, but instead may alter brain structure via affective disorder psychopathology. …”

The impact of firm-level innovation on labor productivity and employment in selected African countries by Zerayehu Sime, Getaw Tadesse

“…In general, the finding challenges the assumption that innovation uniformly improves productivity, instead revealing a more complex dynamic where job creation comes at the cost of lower productivity in certain labor segments.…”

Effectiveness of joint species distribution models in the presence of imperfect detection by Stephanie Elizabeth Hogg, Yan Wang, Lewi Stone

“…To understand how effective this JSDM is in practice, we also compare results to those from a JSDM that does not explicitly model detection but instead makes use of ‘collapsed data’. A case study of owls and gliders in Victoria, Australia, is also illustrated. …”

Cost-effectiveness of Chloride-liberal versus Chloriderestrictive Intravenous Fluids among Patients Hospitalized in the United States by Louise Perrault, Dilip Makhija, Idal Beer, Suzanne Laplante, Sergio Iannazzo, Karthik Raghunathan

“…Rates of renal injury may be reduced with use of chloride-restrictive intravenous (IV) resuscitation fluids instead of chloride-liberal fluids. **Objectives:** To compare the cost-effectiveness of chloride-restrictive versus chloride-liberal crystalloid fluids used during fluid resuscitation or for the maintenance of hydration among patients hospitalized in the US for critical illnesses or major surgery. …”

Resetting the Hsc70-mediated lysosomal degradation of PD-L1 via a supramolecular meso peptide for the restoration of acquired anti-tumor T cell immunity by Yujia Zhao, Dan Liu, Wenguang Yang, Wangxiao He, Jin Yan, Leiqing Yao

“…To overcome this issue, a meso chimeric peptide PEPPDL1 was designed to specifically bind the PD-1 binding domain of PD-L1 instead of the Hsc70/CMTM6 binding domain, while also binding to Hsc70 to facilitate the dragging of PD-L1 into Hsc70-mediated chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA), thereby achieving lysosomal degradation. …”

Red wine maceration with grapevine-cane residues: Influence of format and toasting level by Verónica R. Olate-Olave, Liudis L. Pino-Ramos, Paula A. Peña-Martínez, Ricardo I. Castro, Marcelo Muñoz-Vera, Sergio Reyes-Manríquez, Gerard Casaubon, V. Felipe Laurie

“…For instance, treatments with powder vine canes led to a reduction in total phenolics (−19.4 %), antioxidant capacity (−14.9 %), total anthocyanins (−19.5 %), and catechins (−9.5 %), compared to the untreated control. Instead, granules and discs produced no significant variation when compared to untreated or oak treated samples, after 24 days of maceration. …”

Modification of changes in the stress-strain state of crane slewing gear elements while operational conditions by L. A. Sladkova, V. V. Fokin
