Practical Implementation Of An Osteoarthritis Treatment Program In A Radiation Oncology Center Within Md Anderson’S Cancer Network, Aaron Shaykevich, Adam Grippin, Warren Floyd, Brady Cripe, Alexander Augustyn, Shalin Shah, Samantha Buszek

Advances in Cancer Education and Quality Improvement

Background: Low-dose radiation therapy (LDRT) for symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) can add to the workload of radiation oncology services, particularly in small centers with limited capacity and staff. After we launched an OA LDRT program in December 2024, referrals grew rapidly at our rural, single-linac radiation oncology practice at UT MD Anderson’s Cancer Network Partner site (Community Health Network in Indianapolis, IN), leading to long wait times and workflow strain.

Methods: We used load leveling to reserve capacity for cancer care and make OA scheduling predictable. Five 15-minute benign consult slots were set aside each week. Patients then went on a …

Health Horizons Journal, Volume 1, Issue 1

Health Horizons Journal

The Health Horizons Journal was founded in the fall semester of 2025 at Clemson University in order to establish a student-led journal that connects the Clemson community with global health content and empowers student researchers. The mission of this journal is to provide students with an opportunity to publish their research and promote access to scholarly work through open-access publication. This journal is dedicated to publishing at no cost to authors and providing submitting authors from any institution at the undergraduate or graduate levels with equal consideration.

Improving health outcomes on a global scale begins with interdisciplinary collaboration and the …

Multistate Litigation Networks, Elysa M. Dishman, Kristina Bishop

Texas A&M Law Review

State lawsuits challenging executive orders and agency regulations not only disrupt executive policymaking but also reshape constitutional structures. States sue the federal government in highly coordinated multistate coalitions led by state attorneys general. These state coalitions target federal agencies and officials in strategically selected courts seeking sweeping injunctions to block executive actions. Following the Supreme Court’s opinion curtailing universal injunctions for private litigants without class certification, states are uniquely poised to obtain broad injunctive relief against the federal government. This Article theorizes that multistate litigation involves a series of network relationships among state plaintiffs, federal defendants, and federal courts and …

Animus And Heightened Scrutiny: A Way Out Of The ‘Dead End’, Steve Sanders

Texas A&M Law Review

Laws or government actions that are grounded in animus rather than proper public purposes violate the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection. This principle arises from four canonical cases decided by the Supreme Court between 1973 and 2013. These cases remain good law. Yet in the past decade the Roberts Court has given scant attention to the animus doctrine, and lower courts appear to be in a muddle about how to use it. As a result, the animus doctrine has reached what one prominent scholar calls a “dead end.” The animus cases are often described as exhibiting a more skeptical, more …

Assessment Of Physical And Chemical Methods For The Remediation Of Norm-Contaminated Soil And Its Generated Radioactive Liquid Waste At The Southern Al-Rumaila Oilfield, Iraq, Zaidon H. Ibrahim, Asia H. Al-Mashhadani, Amer Abdulabbas Sakran, Adel Ch. Majeed, Sabah A. Dawood, Taisir K. Abbas, Aseel A. Chasb

Baghdad Science Journal

This study aims to quantify the activity concentrations of ²²⁶Ra and ²²⁸Ra in Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (TENORM) contaminated soils from selected sites within the South Rumaila oilfield, Basra Governorate, southern Iraq, and to evaluate physical and chemical remediation options to reduce contamination below IAEA limits. Using High-Purity Germanium (HPGe) gamma-ray spectrometry, the mean activity concentrations were 7.67× 10⁴; ± 1.5% and 6.26× 10³ ± 1.43% Bq/kg for ²²⁶Ra and ²²⁸Ra, respectively (n = 25). Physical separation by particle size and sequential chemical leaching were applied as remediation approaches. The highest …

Structural And Thermal Characterization Of Chitosan/Pva/Vitamin Matrices And Their Histological Impact On Cell Proliferation And Tissue Remodeling In Wound Healing, Estabraq Hasan Rashed, Hanaa Shuker Mahmood

Baghdad Science Journal

The healing of wounds is one of the complex biological processes, which involves appropriate coordination of cellular and molecular reactions and the production of innovative biomaterials turned out to be the prerequisite to enhance the efficiency of the healing process. The objective of this study was to prepare and evaluate a Vitamin A-loaded chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol (CS/PVA) biodegradable composite film for potential wound-healing applications. The composite films were fabricated by means of the 98: 2 CS/PVA mixture with various concentration of vitamin. A physicochemical characterization was done using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) …

Strategic Messaging As An Essential Element Of U.S. Biodeterrence, Part One: Communicating Capability In An Era Of Escalating Biological Threats, James Giordano

Strategic Insights

Strategic messaging plays a critical role in U.S. biodeterrence by shaping how potential adversaries perceive American preparedness, capabilities, and resolve. In this article, Dr. James Giordano discusses how advances in artificial intelligence, synthetic biology, and other emerging technologies are changing the nature of biological threats and their implications for national security and military operations.

Dr. Giordano argues that effective biodeterrence requires more than protective technologies and response capabilities. It also depends on credible communication that demonstrates U.S. preparedness, influences adversary decision-making, and reduces uncertainty. He emphasizes the importance of communicating both capabilities and limitations without compromising operational security, strengthening deterrence …

Resolving Satellite And In Situ Mismatches In Net Primary Production Using High-Frequency In Situ Bio-Optical Observations In The Subpolar Northwest Atlantic, Kitty Warsi Kam, Emmanuel Devred, Stephanie Alam Clay, Mohammad M. Amirian, Andrew J. Irwin, Dariia Atamanchuk, Uwe Send, Douglas W. R. Wallace

Publications and Research

Net primary productivity (NPP) plays a central role in biological carbon pump (BCP) and global carbon cycling, but NPP estimates in high-latitude regions remain highly uncertain despite their disproportional contribution to the global carbon sink. Previous studies identified discrepancies among satellite- and in situ-derived NPP estimates, but the drivers of disagreement remain poorly resolved due to limited high-frequency observations. Here, we present continuous depth-resolved estimates of in situ NPP from the Central Labrador Sea (56°N) in the subpolar Northwest Atlantic, reconstructed from daily bio-optical profiles collected between May and November 2016, and a 40-year dataset of photosynthesis parameters derived from …

Progressive Remodeling Of Global Protein Interaction Networks In A Mouse Model Of Tauopathy, Weiwei Lin, Sadhna Phanse, Sophie J F Van Der Spek, Noah Lampl, Morgan C Stephens, Zihan Wang, Joseph T Nigro, Alejandro Rondon Ortiz, Ryan Hekman, Anna Lourdes F Cruz, Rebecca Roberts, Lulu Jiang, Juan Botas, Andrew Emili, Benjamin Wolozin

Neurodegenerative disease is marked not just by loss of proteins or cells, but by dynamic rewiring of macromolecular interaction networks that precede and drive pathology. Here, we present a temporally resolved, systems-scale map of multi-protein complex remodeling in a tauopathy model, integrating co-fractionation mass spectrometry, quantitative phosphoproteomics, and machine learning to decode phosphorylation-dependent shifts in protein interactomes across disease progression. This interactomic atlas serves as a resource to investigate functional assemblies, including MAPT-Dpysl2 and Cyfip1-actin, as well as ptk2b-Kars/Dars and ptk2b-Msn-Farsb-complexes, that modulate early disease phenotypes in vivo. Notably, it captures the composition, dynamics, and regulatory state of protein complexes …
