This study aims to develop and validate a brief bedside tool to screen women survivors presenting for emergency care following sexual assault for risk of persistent elevated posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) six months after assault. Participants were 547 cisgender women sexual assault survivors who presented to one of 13 sexual assault nurse examiner (SANE) programs for medical care within 72 h of a sexual assault and completed surveys one week and six months after the assault. Data on 222 potential predictors from the SANE visit and the week one survey spanning seven broadly-defined risk factor domains were candidates for inclusion in the screening tool...

Motivated by the ambition to establish an enzyme-driven bioleaching pathway for copper extraction, properties of the Type-1 copper protein rusticyanin from Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans (AfR) were compared with those from an ancestral form of this enzyme (N0) and an archaeal enzyme identified in Ferroplasma acidiphilum (FaR). While both N0 and FaR show redox potentials similar to that of AfR their electron transport rates were significantly slower. The lack of a correlation between the redox potentials and electron transfer rates indicates that AfR and its associated electron transfer chain evolved to specifically facilitate the efficient conversion of the energy of iron oxidation to ATP formation...

OBJECTIVE: Congenital anomalies of the atlanto-occipital articulation may be present in patients with Chiari malformation type I (CM-I). However, it is unclear how these anomalies affect the biomechanical stability of the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) and whether they are associated with an increased incidence of occipitocervical fusion (OCF) following posterior fossa decompression (PFD). The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of condylar hypoplasia and atlas anomalies in children with CM-I and syringomyelia...

Few studies explore emergency medicine (EM) residency shift scheduling software as a mechanism to reduce administrative demands and broader resident burnout. A local needs assessment demonstrated a learning curve for chief resident schedulers and several areas for improvement. In an institutional quality improvement project, we utilized an external online cross-sectional convenience sampling pilot survey of United States EM residency programs to collect information on manual versus software-based resident shift scheduling practices and associated scheduler and scheduler-perceived resident satisfaction...

Microbiota-directed complementary food (MDCF) formulations have been designed to repair the gut communities of malnourished children. A randomized controlled trial demonstrated that one formulation, MDCF-2, improved weight gain in malnourished Bangladeshi children compared to a more calorically dense standard nutritional intervention. Metagenome-assembled genomes from study participants revealed a correlation between ponderal growth and expression of MDCF-2 glycan utilization pathways by Prevotella copri strains...

BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of Neisseria (N.) gonorrhoeae is dependent on nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT), which is not available in resource-limited settings where the prevalence of infection is highest. Recent advances in molecular diagnostics leveraging the high specificity of CRISPR enzymes can permit field-deployable, point-of-care lateral flow assays. We previously reported on the development and in vitro performance of a lateral flow assay for detecting N. gonorrhoeae . Here we aimed to pair that assay with point-of-care DNA extraction techniques and assess the performance on clinical urine specimens...

A fundamentally new, to the best of our knowledge, class of linear (2D) dual-mirror aplanats tailored to tubular absorbers is developed for the types of solar concentrators used for thermal power. It is shown that prior investigation establishing this concept possesses unrecognized additional designs, as well as having missed high-performance configurations. It is shown that our line-focus solar concentrators can attain intercept factors exceeding 0.9 at concentration values as high as 55, with practical mirror contours and assemblies...

Vegetation and precipitation are known to fundamentally influence each other. However, this interdependence is not fully represented in climate models because the characteristics of land surface (canopy) conductance to water vapor and CO2 are determined independently of precipitation. Working within a coupled atmosphere and land modelling framework (CAM6/CLM5; coupled Community Atmosphere Model v6/Community Land Model v5), we have developed a new theoretical approach to characterizing land surface conductance by explicitly linking its dynamic properties to local precipitation, a robust proxy for moisture available to vegetation...

The nature of play in animals has been long debated, but progress is being made in characterizing play and its variants, documenting its distribution across vertebrate and invertebrate taxa, describing its mechanisms and development, and proposing testable theories about its origins, evolution, and adaptive functions. To achieve a deeper understanding of the functions and evolution of play, integrative and conceptual advances are needed in neuroscience, computer modeling, phylogenetics, experimental techniques, behavior development, and inter- and intra-specific variation...

UNLABELLED: Every year, people drown after falling through ice on rivers and lakes. In some cases, the body of the victim floats up to the underside of the ice, making detection and recovery difficult using traditional search methods with divers. A robust and contact-less sensing system is required to locate drowning victims that does not put rescue teams at risk of falling through the ice themselves. In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility of a ground penetrating radar (GPR) for detecting deceased drowning victims that have floated up to the underside of the ice...

Climate-induced expansion of invasive hybridization (breeding between invasive and native species) poses a significant threat to the persistence of many native species worldwide. In the northern U.S. Rocky Mountains, hybridization between native cutthroat trout and non-native rainbow trout has increased in recent decades due, in part, to climate-driven increases in water temperature. It has been postulated that invasive hybridization may enhance physiological tolerance to climate-induced thermal stress because laboratory studies indicate that rainbow trout have a higher thermal tolerance than cutthroat trout...

Oxidoreductases play crucial roles in electron transfer during biological redox reactions. These reactions are not exclusive to protein-based biocatalysts; nano-size (<100 nm), fine-grained inorganic colloids, such as iron oxides and sulfides, also participate. These nanocolloids exhibit intrinsic redox activity and possess direct electron transfer capacities comparable to their biological counterparts. The unique metal ion architecture of these nanocolloids, including electron configurations, coordination environment, electron conductivity, and the ability to promote spontaneous electron hopping, contributes to their transfer capabilities...

PAR4 is a promising antithrombotic target with potential for separation of efficacy from bleeding risk relative to current antiplatelet therapies. In an effort to discover a novel PAR4 antagonist chemotype, a quinoxaline-based HTS hit 3 with low μM potency was identified. Optimization of the HTS hit through the use of positional SAR scanning and the design of conformationally constrained cores led to the discovery of a quinoxaline-benzothiazole series as potent and selective PAR4 antagonists. The lead compound 48 , possessing a 2 nM IC50 against PAR4 activation by γ-thrombin in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and greater than 2500-fold selectivity versus PAR1, demonstrated robust antithrombotic efficacy and minimal bleeding in the cynomolgus monkey models...

The venetoclax BCL2 inhibitor in combination with hypomethylating agents represents a cornerstone of induction therapy for older AML patients, unfit for intensive chemotherapy. Like other targeted therapies, venetoclax-based therapies suffer from innate and acquired resistance. While several mechanisms of resistance have been identified, the heterogeneity of resistance mechanism across patient populations is poorly understood. Here we utilized integrative analysis of transcriptomic and ex-vivo drug response data in AML patients to identify four transcriptionally distinct VEN resistant clusters (VR_C1-4), with distinct phenotypic, genetic and drug response patterns...
