is the only species of the genus , which forms an early-diverging lineage of Apiaceae, subfamily Apioideae. This species is subendemic to the Canary Islands and one of the most representative species of the coastal environments of this archipelago. displays diplochory, that is, diaspores with two long-distance dispersal (LDD) syndromes.

Alopecia areata (AA) is managed with prolonged medical treatments and cosmetic therapies, whose cost can be burdensome. We sought to identify the costs of AA treatment and consolidate the available data for the practicing dermatologist by performing a PubMed search of articles indexed for MEDLINE. Ten studies including approximately 16,000 patients with AA across a range of Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine Levels of Evidence were included.

Article Synopsis
  • Scorpions are an ancient group of arachnids, over 400 million years old, and one of the first land-dwelling animals, but research on their evolution is limited due to the lack of genomic data.
  • This study used advanced sequencing techniques to create the first detailed chromosome-level genome assembly for the desert hairy scorpion, Hadrurus arizonensis, yielding a genome size of 2.23 Gb and reorganizing the data into nine chromosomes.
  • The assembly identified a high number of protein-coding genes and complete arthropod orthologs, making it a valuable resource for understanding scorpion evolution, arachnid relationships, and for future genomic studies.

Background: Recently, the potential detrimental effect that the duration of storage time may have on vitrified samples has raised some concerns, especially when some studies found an association between cryostorage length and decreased clinical results.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the storage time length of day-5 vitrified blastocysts in 2 study groups: freeze-all cycles and nonelective frozen embryo transfers.

Study Design: This was a retrospective study that included 58,001 vitrified/warmed day-5 blastocysts from 2 different populations, according to the reason for frozen embryo transfer.

Euphorbia canariensis is an iconic endemic species representative of the lowland xerophytic communities of the Canary Islands. It is widely distributed in the archipelago despite having diasporas unspecialized for long-distance dispersal. Here, we reconstructed the evolutionary history of E.
