Acute GLP-1 Agonism Induces Arrhythmogenic Electrical Activity in Aged Mice Heart Through Impaired Cellular Na+ and Ca2+ Handlings: The Role of CK2 Hyperphosphorylation.

Background: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are known for their benefits in conditions like cardiovascular diseases in type 2 diabetes and obesity. They also show promise for aging-related conditions with minimal side effects. However, their impact on cardiovascular risk is still debated.

Genotype-phenotype correlation in recessive DNAJB4 myopathy.

Protein aggregate myopathies can result from pathogenic variants in genes encoding protein chaperones. DNAJB4 is a cochaperone belonging to the heat shock protein-40 (HSP40) family and plays a vital role in cellular proteostasis. Recessive loss-of-function variants in cause myopathy with early respiratory failure and spinal rigidity, presenting from infancy to adulthood.

Evaluation of Cyclic Fatigue Resistance of Novel Replica-Like Instruments in Static Test Model.

Introduction: The aim of our study is to comparatively analyze the canal cyclic fatigue resistance of widely used rotary file systems, including EndoArt Touch Gold (ETG), Perfect MTF Plus Gold (PPG), Fanta V-Taper Gold (FVG), and ProTaper Next (PTN).

Methods: Stainless steel canals with a 60° angle and a 3-mm curvature radius were specially prepared. The canals were shaped with each rotary file system and tested for resistance using a cyclic fatigue testing apparatus.

"Society Isn't Designed for Us to Win": Trauma and Sexual Healthcare Experiences Among Transgender Women in the Southeastern United States.

Transgender women (TGW) are disproportionately affected by sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Experienced trauma threatens TGW's commitment to sexual healthcare. Trauma-informed approaches to sexual healthcare can improve engagement.
