Development of 6-amido-4-aminoisoindolyn-1,3-diones as p70S6K1 inhibitors and potential breast cancer therapeutics.

Introduction: Many breast cancer therapeutics target the PI3K/AKT/mTOR oncogenic pathway. Development of resistance to the therapeutics targeting this pathway is a frequent occurrence. Therapeutics targeting p70S6K1, a downstream member of this pathway, have recently gained importance due to its critical role in all types of breast cancer and its status as a prognostic marker.

Intersections between climate change and antimicrobial resistance: a systematic scoping review.

Climate change and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) present crucial challenges for the health and wellbeing of people, animals, plants, and ecosystems worldwide, yet the two are largely treated as separate and unrelated challenges. The aim of this systematic scoping Review is to understand the nature of the growing evidence base linking AMR and climate change and to identify knowledge gaps and areas for further research. We conducted a systematic search of the peer-reviewed literature in Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed on 27 June, 2022.

Involving youth with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities as collaborators in a comparative effectiveness trial: A community-engaged research approach.

Background: Practices to include youth with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD) are necessary to design and implement research that specifically meets the behavioral health needs of this population. This article describes a protocol for engaging youth with IDD as collaborators in a comparative effectiveness clinical trial using a community-engaged research (CEnR) approach.

Methods: Our engagement protocol, guided by the Community Engaged Research (CEnR) Framework, emphasized harm avoidance, accessibility, demonstrated value, capacity bridging and co-learning, shared power and equity in decision-making, accountability and respect, and transparent communication.

A horizon scan of biological conservation issues for 2025.

We discuss the outcomes of our 16th horizon scan of issues that are novel or represent a considerable step-change and have the potential to substantially affect conservation of biological diversity in the coming decade. From an initial 96 topics, our international panel of 32 scientists and practitioners prioritised 15 issues. Technological advances are prominent, including metal and non-metal organic frameworks, deriving rare earth elements from macroalgae, synthetic gene drives in plants, and low-emission cement.

The Road to Access: Addressing Transportation Challenges in Rural Primary Care.

Central Appalachia's coal fields are the site of health disparities influenced by social determinants of health including poverty and isolation, compounded by transportation barriers to health care. In this study, we conducted two surveys among patients at a rural federally qualified health center (FQHC) to evaluate the health and financial ramifications of transportation barriers to primary care. Our findings indicate that patients facing transportation barriers rely disproportionately on emergency department services or hospitalization.
