Validity and Reliability of the Korean Version of Supportive Care Needs Survey-Short Form 34 for Patients with Cancer: A Methodological Study.

Purpose: The Supportive Care Needs Survey-Short Form 34 (SCNS-SF34) measures the perceived care needs of patients with cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the SCNS-SF34 (i.e.

Signatures of ambient pressure superconductivity in thin film LaNiO.

Recently, the bilayer nickelate LaNiO has been discovered as a new superconductor with transition temperature T near 80 K under high pressure. Despite extensive theoretical and experimental work to understand the nature of its superconductivity, the requirement of extreme pressure restricts the use of many experimental probes and limits its application potential. Here, we present signatures of superconductivity in LaNiO thin films at ambient pressure, facilitated by the application of epitaxial compressive strain.

Wnt5a exacerbates pathological bone features and trabecular bone loss in curdlan-injected SKG mice via osteoclast activation.

Many studies on osteoblasts have suggested that Wnt5a plays a crucial role in excessive osteoblast activity, which is responsible for ectopic new bone formation, but research on osteoclasts in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) remains relatively limited. This study aimed to explore whether Wnt5a influences osteoclast-mediated bone resorption in curdlan-injected SKG mice, a model that mimics AS. Compared to the Vehicle group, the Wnt5a treatment group exhibited statistically higher clinical arthritis scores and increased hindpaw thickness values.

Genome sequences of RN4220.

In this study, we present whole genome sequences of RN4220. Using PacBio DNA sequencing and assembly, we obtained a single contig of 2,697,647 bp, which includes 2,652 predicted genes comprising protein-coding sequences, tRNAs, and rRNAs.
