Lesbian and Gay Population, Work Experience, and Well-Being: A Ten-Year Systematic Review.

Despite an increase in the promotion of equal opportunities at work, there is still persistent discrimination against lesbian and gay (LG) workers. In this vein, this study aimed to systematically review the research investigating the peculiarities of the work experience of LG people, particularly considering the theoretical frameworks in the approach to sexual minorities' work-related issues, as well as individual and contextual variables influencing the work experience and the impact they may have on health and well-being. We explored the PsycArticles, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science electronic databases and the EBSCOHost (PsycInfo, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection) scholarly search engine, between 01/01/2013 to 01/03/2023, with regards to the search terms "lgb*", "gay*", "lesbian*", "homosexual*", and "sexual minorit*", associated with "employee*", "personnel", "worker*", and "staff", and with "workplace", "work", "job", "occupation", "employment", and "career".

Apoliprotein E-mediated ferroptosis controls cellular proliferation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Unraveling vulnerabilities in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) represents a key approach to understand molecular basis for its indolence and a path toward developing tailored therapeutic approaches. In this study, we found that CLL cells are particularly sensitive to the inhibitory action of abundant serum protein, apolipoprotein E (ApoE). Physiological concentrations of ApoE affect CLL cell viability and inhibit CD40-driven proliferation.

Donor-derived Cell-free DNA Evaluation in Pediatric Heart Transplant Recipients: A Single-center 12-mo Experience.

Background: Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) is considered the gold-standard method to diagnose rejection after heart transplantation. However, the many disadvantages and potential complications of this test restrict its routine application, particularly in pediatric patients. Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA), released by the transplanted heart as result of cellular injury, is emerging as a biomarker of tissue damage involved in ischemia/reperfusion injury and posttransplant rejection.

Stress dimensions, patterns of coping, and psychopathological risk among nurses: a person-centred approach.

Background: Nurses are increasingly demanded to achieve gold-standards of care with fewer resources. Dealing effectively with stress experienced in their daily-work-life is thus crucial. This study is based on the Demands-Resources-and-Individual-Effects (DRIVE) Nurses Model and applied the person-centred approach with a twofold objective: 1.
