Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate anxiety, depression, and quality of life (QoL) among individuals with type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to matched controls during the COVID-19 pandemic's second wave.
- - Researchers collected data from 203 T1D and 413 T2D individuals, along with 282 controls, through questionnaires on mental health, QoL, and blood samples to assess coronavirus antibody levels.
- - Findings indicated that younger individuals and health issues were linked to higher anxiety and depression, with T1D showing a greater SARS-CoV-2 NCP infection rate, potentially due to factors like age and employment status.
Background: Small-for-size syndrome (SFSS) in pediatric liver transplant recipients, particularly those weighing less than 10 kg, is rare. This report describes a case of a 15-month-old whole liver transplant recipient who suffered SFSS, and systematic literature review was performed to identify outcomes of such cases and potential risk factors for SFSS.
Case Presentation: A 15-month-old toddler with a history of biliary atresia underwent a deceased donor whole liver transplant.
To understand the process by which new protein functions emerge, we examined how the yeast heterochromatin protein Sir3 arose through gene duplication from the conserved DNA replication protein Orc1. Orc1 is a subunit of the origin recognition complex (ORC), which marks origins of DNA replication. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Orc1 also promotes heterochromatin assembly by recruiting the structural proteins Sir1-4 to silencer DNA.

He complained of tiredness and discouragement, which worsened during feverish periods. There were no relevant laboratory test abnormalities and serological tests were not reactive.
