A reproductive justice investigation of utilizing digital interventions among underserved populations with criminal legal system supervision: Policy brief.

Background: Mobile health interventions that utilize artificial intelligence may provide way for underserved populations to engage with healthcare.

Purpose: Examine the policy considerations that must be deliberated when developing, regulating, implementing, and sustaining mHealth apps among historically underserved individuals.

Methods: Reproductive Justice was used to investigate policy considerations for those with criminal legal system supervision who engage with mHealth apps.

Cripto-1 acts as a molecular bridge linking nodal to ALK4 via distinct structural domains.

The TGF-β family ligand Nodal is an essential regulator of embryonic development, orchestrating key processes such as germ layer specification and body axis formation through activation of SMAD2/3-mediated signaling. Significantly, this activation requires the co-receptor Cripto-1. However, despite their essential roles in embryogenesis, the molecular mechanism through which Cripto-1 enables Nodal to activate the SMAD2/3 pathway has remained elusive.

Deep cryptic diversity in the Species Group (Anura: Craugastoridae) of Isthmian Central America revealed by mitochondrial and nuclear data.

The Species Group contains eleven species of terraranan frogs distributed from eastern Honduras to eastern Panama. All species have remarkable color pattern polymorphisms, which may contribute to potential taxonomic problems. We performed exhaustive sampling throughout the geographic distribution of the group to evaluate the phylogenetic relationships and biogeographic history of all named species based on two mitochondrial markers and nuclear ddRAD loci.

Population Genomics Reveals Local Adaptation Related to Temperature Variation in Two Stream Frog Species: Implications for Vulnerability to Climate Warming.

Identifying populations at highest risk from climate change is a critical component of conservation efforts. However, vulnerability assessments are usually applied at the species level, even though intraspecific variation in exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity play a crucial role in determining vulnerability. Genomic data can inform intraspecific vulnerability by identifying signatures of local adaptation that reflect population-level variation in sensitivity and adaptive capacity.

Trends in views of democracy and society and support for political violence in the USA, 2022-2024: findings from a nationally representative survey.

Background: In 2022, a nationally representative longitudinal survey in the USA found concerningly high prevalences of support for and personal willingness to engage in political violence, but those prevalences decreased in 2023. This study examines changes in those prevalences from 2023 to 2024, an election year in the USA.

Methods: Participants were members of Ipsos KnowledgePanel.
