Peripheral Mechanisms Underlying Bacillus Calmette–Guerin-Induced Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) by Meera Elmasri, Aaron Clark, Luke Grundy

“…Drawing from known mechanisms in other common urological disorders and data from successful clinical trials involving NMIBC patients, this review summarises evidence supporting the likely changes in both sensory nerve signalling and bladder muscle function in the development of BCG-induced LUTS. However, further research is required to understand the intricate mechanisms underlying the development of BCG-induced LUTS and identify why some patients are more likely to experience BCG intolerance. …”

THE INFLUENCE OF SOIL DENSITY AND THE CHARACTER OF RADIOACTIVE 134Cs And 137Cs POLLUTION’S DISTRIBUTION ON in situ MEASUREMENTS by A. I. Zhukouski, O. M. Anshakou, A. O. Nichyparchuk, P. M. Marozik, S. A. Kuten

“…The purpose of this research is to test the feasibility of using algorithms for determination of specific activity and thickness of contaminated layer under conditions of soil measurement with variable density parameters and radiocesium distribution in soil.Monte-Carlo simulating allowed to estimate the degree of deviation of the shape of simulated spectra obtained with the use of Monte-Carlo soil model with uniformly distributed radionuclide in it, and for the case when the radionuclide distribution by soil profile can be described by an exponential function. For these cases of natural distribution of radiocesium, the pulse-amplitude spectrum is formed by an effective thickness of the contaminated site, which contains more than 90 % of radionuclides.The developed Monte-Carlo model of a probe and contaminated soil site allows to estimate the effect of the variability of soil density on the total count rate of the pulse-amplitude spectrum. …”

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Glycogen Storage Disorders (GSDs) by Kumudesh Mishra, Or Kakhlon

“…Deficiencies in enzymes responsible for glycogen breakdown and synthesis can impair mitochondrial function. For instance, in GSD type II (Pompe disease), acid alpha-glucosidase deficiency leads to lysosomal glycogen accumulation, which secondarily impacts mitochondrial function through dysfunctional mitophagy, which disrupts mitochondrial quality control, generating oxidative stress. …”
