The Rodent Electronic Nicotine Delivery System: Description and Validation of an Apparatus for Nose-Only E-Cigarette Aerosol Inhalation in Freely Moving Rats.

Tobacco use is the leading cause of death globally and in the U.S. After decades of decline, driven by decreases in combusted tobacco use, nicotine product use has increased due to Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS), also known as e-cigarettes or vapes.

Ultrasonographic approach to visualize the medial shoulder compartment and diagnose medial glenohumeral ligament and subscapularis lesions in dogs.

Objective: To provide a video tutorial on the diagnostic ultrasound approach to the medial compartment of the canine shoulder and provide comparisons of normal and pathological images with corresponding MRI.

Animals: Dogs undergoing diagnostic ultrasound of the medial shoulder.

Methods: The medial shoulder was positioned in flexion with external rotation to allow transducer access, clipped, and scrubbed with dilute chlorhexidine.

A natural language processing-informed adrenal gland incidentaloma clinic improves guideline-based care.

Introduction: Adrenal gland incidentalomas (AGIs) are found in up to 5% of cross-sectional images. However, rates of guideline-based workup for AGIs are notoriously low. We sought to determine if a natural language processing (NLP)-informed AGI clinic could improve the rates of indicated biochemical evaluation and adrenal-specific imaging.

Characterization of the SARS-CoV-2 Genome 3'-Untranslated Region Interactions with Host MicroRNAs.

The 2019 pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has marked the spread of a novel human coronavirus. SARS-CoV-2 has exhibited increased disease severity and immune evasion across its variants, and the molecular mechanisms behind these phenomena remain largely unknown. Conserved elements of the viral genome, such as secondary structures within the 3'-untranslated region (UTR), could prove crucial in furthering our understanding of the host-virus interface.
