Article Abstract

A gas-sheet beam profile monitor enabling non-destructive two-dimensional profile measurements of a high-intensity beam by capturing an image of a beam-induced fluorescence was developed. For quantitative profile measurements, the monitor's response function comprising, e.g., the gas sheet density distribution and the detector's sensitivity distributions must be experimentally clarified because the monitor output is a converted profile with the response function. A response function measurement method was devised based on the beam-profile-measurement method formula of the monitor. The response function was obtained by injecting a thin electron beam into the developed monitor and scanning its center position in transverse. The measured response function was evaluated by the J-PARC 3 MeV, 60 mA H- beam profile measurement. The 2-D beam profile was successfully reconstructed with the measured response function within the 2.74% residual of the least-squares method and 6.01% experimental statistic deviation. The projected 1-D profiles agreed well with those measured using a wire-scanning-type profile monitor.

Embryo transfer (ET) is a valuable reproductive technology in pigs, albeit its efficiency remains significantly lower than that of natural mating or artificial insemination (AI), owing to high embryonic death rates. Critical for embryo survival and pregnancy success is the placenta, which supports conceptus development through nutrient exchange, hormone production, and immune modulation. Alterations in placental development and function may therefore underlie the reduced efficiency of ET.

Background: Children with cerebral palsy (CP) may experience epilepsy and challenges with movement, posture, cognition, and musculoskeletal development, which can impact their quality of life (QOL). In this study, we investigated the relationship between demographic and clinical variables as well as QOL in children with spastic CP.

Methods: Children aged 6 to 12 years with CP who were followed-up at our tertiary center were included in this cross-sectional study, regardless of the cause.

Background: The expression and clinical correlation of BRAFV600E mutation and programmed cell death-1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) in children with Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) have been reported, but the conclusions of previous studies are inconsistent. In addition, it has been reported that elevated cathepsin S (CTSS) expression is associated with various cancers. However, there is currently no research on the correlation between CTSS and LCH.

Background: We aimed to document childhood onset mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) and to explore treatment responses and diagnostic challenges in regions endemic to familial Mediterranean fever (FMF).

Methods: This retrospective study included patients under 18 years of age, diagnosed with MKD and followed for at least six months at the pediatric rheumatology department of Istanbul University - Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty between 2016 and 2024.

Results: Of 33 patients, 51.

Salt stress impairs photosynthetic efficiency and consequently reduces the growth, development, and grain yield of crop plants. The formation of hydrophobic barriers in the root endodermis, including the suberin lamellae and Casparian strips, is a key adaptive strategy for salt stress tolerance. In this study, we identified the role of the rice NAC transcription factor, ONAC005, in salt stress tolerance.
