Since the discovery of RNA in the early 1900s, scientific understanding of RNA form and function has evolved beyond protein coding. Viruses, particularly retroviruses like human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1), rely heavily on RNA and RNA post-transcriptional modifications to regulate the viral lifecycle, pathogenesis, and evasion of host immune responses. With the emergence of new sequencing technologies in the last decade, our ability to dissect the intricacies of RNA has flourished.

To estimate its potential impact, we investigated a historic cohort of heart transplant (HT) recipients who would have been eligible for a kidney-after-heart transplant under this policy.
Methods: Adult heart-only recipients from 1/1/2000 to 3/31/2023 in the United Network for Organ Sharing database were categorized by retroactively applying eligibility criteria from the new policy: eGFR≤20mL/min, CrCl≤20mL/min, or dialysis 60-365 days post-HT.
Objective: Evaluate the role of surgery as the sole treatment modality for patients with cervical head and neck squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary (HNSCCUP).
Design: Systematic review of observational cohort studies with qualitative synthesis.
Setting: PubMed, Ovid EMBASE, and Cochrane Controlled register of Trials (CENTRAL) were screened from January 2000 up to October 2021.
Objective: Infective endocarditis (IE) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and places patients at risk for subsequent peripheral vascular emboli. Our goals were to analyze the incidence of peripheral emboli and their associated complications and outcomes.
Methods: A retrospective single-center review of all patients with IE from 2013-2021 was performed.
