Outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 infection in early pregnancy-A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Available data on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and pregnancy outcomes mostly refer to women contracting the infection during advanced pregnancy or close to delivery. There is limited information on the association between SARS-CoV-2 infection in early pregnancy and outcomes thereof.

Material And Methods: We aimed to systematically review the maternal, fetal and neonatal outcomes following SARS-CoV-2 infection in early pregnancy, defined as <20 weeks of gestation (PROSPERO Registration 2020 CRD42020177673).

Promiscuous CYP87A enzyme activity initiates cardenolide biosynthesis in plants.

Cardenolides are specialized, steroidal metabolites produced in a wide array of plant families. Cardenolides play protective roles in plants, but these molecules, including digoxin from foxglove (Digitalis spp.), are better known for treatment of congenital heart failure, atrial arrhythmia, various cancers and other chronic diseases.

Comments on "Size dependence of the lattice parameters of carbon supported platinum nanoparticles: X-ray diffraction analysis and theoretical considerations," , 2014, , 35959-35965.

Leontyev and colleagues presented the results of an experiment and of its theoretical consequences. The interpretations were based on model-fits to that experiment. Unfortunately, they used two demonstrably incorrect parameters in their models.

Immigration and Race: A Challenge of Many Shades.

This article describes the history of race relations and the rapidly changing racial topography of the United States. The authors address the history of racism and discrimination experienced by minority populations and immigrants of color and the psychological effects on these populations and describe the risk factors and protective factors that come into play when individuals are faced with experiences of discrimination and racism. They describe the process of ethnic-racial identity development and the different styles of ethnic-racial socialization and cultural orientation.

Focusing on Racial, Historical and Intergenerational Trauma, and Resilience: A Paradigm to Better Serving Children and Families.

Research across populations demonstrates that intergenerational trauma can have lasting biological, psychological, and social consequences and affects groups of individuals in different ways. An appreciation of intergenerational trauma as experienced in diverse populations is important not only for understanding vulnerabilities and risk but also for cultivating opportunities for posttraumatic growth and healing. Understanding the contexts of trauma for children and families and the unveiling of structural inequities, both past and present, offers the opportunity to address these in using clinical and systems of care approaches in the public health spheres.
