Effects of Evaporative Cooling Garment Configurations on Physiological Heat Strain During Simulated Occupational Heat Exposure in a Hot-Dry Environment: A Randomized Crossover Study

This randomized crossover study demonstrates that while evaporative cooling garments effectively reduce peripheral skin temperatures in hot-dry environments, a cooling vest alone provides most of the physiological benefits, with combined multi-garment systems offering only marginal additional advantages and limited impact on core temperature or cardiovascular strain.

Localized Delivery of an IL-2–Expressing Oncolytic Vaccinia Virus Enhances PD-1 Pathway Inhibition in a De-Novo Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Model

This study demonstrates that localized delivery of an IL-2-expressing oncolytic vaccinia virus (vvDD-IL-2-RG) synergizes with PD-1 inhibition to significantly reduce tumor burden and enhance T-cell infiltration in a clinically relevant, de novo rat model of esophageal adenocarcinoma.
