Military service members experience higher levels of cumulative trauma than the general population, increasing their risk of mental health problems. This scoping review synthesizes evidence on protective factors that contribute to posttraumatic wellbeing among military service members and veterans. and databases were searched using keywords for military/veterans, traumatic event exposure, posttraumatic stress, and wellbeing outcomes (e.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe describe nine microvirus genomes identified in wastewater in Tempe, AZ, USA, between October 2019 and March 2020. The major capsid protein (MCP) encoded in these genomes phylogenetically cluster together and are distinct from the MCPs of microviruses identified in Mexico and Argentina.

Previously, we reported that peanut-sensitized Collaborative Cross strain CC027/GeniUnc (CC027) mice develop anaphylaxis upon oral challenge to peanut, in contrast to C3H/HeJ (C3H) mice.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the genetic basis of orally induced anaphylaxis to peanut in CC027 mice.
Article Synopsis
- Coronavirus can lead to serious health issues, exemplified by SARS-CoV, MERS-CoV, and SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks, indicating significant variation in disease outcomes among infected individuals.
- Researchers are using mouse models and human genetic studies to identify gene locations that influence how these coronaviruses affect infection severity and replication.
- Their findings highlight specific genes that may play roles in virus response, offering insights for future research on how to combat similar viruses that jump from animals to humans.
