Empowering behaviors to address race with kids (EmBARK): A racial socialization program for white families.

We evaluated the EmBARK (Empowering Behaviors to Address Race with Kids) program, which we developed to help White parents in the US address race and racial biases with their White 5- to 7-year-old children. Parents ( = 73) completed EmBARK or control condition activities matched for time commitment and engagement with their child. We achieved remarkable compliance with EmBARK, with 95% of parents completing every program component.

Total Synthesis of Bipenicilisorin and Assignment of the Absolute Configuration.

The first total synthesis of bipenicilisorin () isolated from SCSIO 41001 via its monomer natural product, penicilisorin (), was achieved. Penicilisorin was synthesized in four steps from a -bromobenzaldehyde derivative via the Pd-catalyzed one-pot fluorocarbonylation/lactonization/β-elimination cascade reaction. Iodination of penicilisorin gave 7-iodopenicilisorin which was dimerized by Pd-catalyzed homodimerization to provide (±)-bipenicilisorin.

Particle Size Measurement and Detection of Bound Proteins of Non-Porous/Mesoporous Silica Microspheres by Single-Particle Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry.

Single-particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (spICP-MS) has been used for particle size measurement of diverse types of individual nanoparticles and micrometer-sized carbon-based particles such as microplastics. However, its applicability to the measurement of micrometer-sized non-carbon-based particles such as silica (SiO) particles is unclear. In this study, the applicability of spICP-MS to particle size measurement of non-porous/mesoporous SiO microspheres with a nominal diameter of 5.

The Impact of Assisted Reproductive Technology on Umbilical Cord Insertion: Increased Risk of Velamentous Cord Insertion in Singleton Pregnancies Conceived through ICSI.

: Vasa previa (VP) is a significant perinatal complication that can have serious consequences for the fetus/neonate. Velamentous cord insertion (VCI) is a crucial finding in prenatal placental morphology surveillance as it is indicative of comorbid VP. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has been identified as a risk factor for VCI, so identifying risk factors for VCI in ART could improve VP recognition.

Significance of anti-transcobalamin receptor antibodies in cutaneous arteritis revealed by proteome-wide autoantibody screening.

Cutaneous arteritis (CA) is a single-organ vasculitis that exclusively affects the small to medium-sized arteries of the skin. Diagnosis depends on a histological investigation with skin biopsy, which could be burdensome for both patients and clinicians. Moreover, the pathogenesis of CA remains unstudied, and treatment has not yet been established.
