Impact of Duration of Exposure to Intraretinal Fluid on Visual Outcomes in Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of total duration of intraretinal fluid (IRF) exposure on visual acuity and vision-related quality of life in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).

Design: A post hoc analysis of integrated data from the VIEW 1 and VIEW 2 trials.

Participants: Patients with nAMD.

Absolute and relative intensities of solo, free-form dancing in adults: A pilot study.

Objectives: Engaging in dance of various styles confers health benefits among adults; however, additional studies on free-form dancing are needed to quantify its intensity and advance research on dance and health. This study characterized the absolute and relative physical activity (PA) intensities of solo, free-form dancing at self-determined moderate and vigorous intensities in adults.

Method: Participants (N = 48) ages 18 to 83 years old, with 0 to 56 years of dance training experience, engaged in 5-minute free-form dance bouts at respectively self-determined moderate and vigorous intensities, both with and without music.

TmeA promotes pedestal formation through N-WASP and TOCA-1 interactions.

() is the causative agent of several human diseases, including the sexually transmitted infection chlamydia and eye infection trachoma. As an obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen, invasion is essential for establishing infection and subsequent pathogenesis. To facilitate invasion, secretes effector proteins through its type III secretion system (T3SS).

The Distinct Roles of NEIL1 and XPA in Limiting Aflatoxin B1-Induced Mutagenesis in Mice.

Dietary exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a risk factor for the development of hepatocellular carcinomas. Following metabolic activation, AFB1 reacts with guanines to form covalent DNA adducts, which induce high-frequency G > T transversions. The molecular signature associated with these mutational events aligns with the single-base substitution signature 24 (SBS24) in the Catalog of Somatic Mutations in Cancer database.
