Commensal papillomavirus immunity preserves the homeostasis of highly mutated normal skin.

Immunosuppression commonly disrupts the homeostasis of mutated normal skin, leading to widespread skin dysplasia and field cancerization. However, the immune system's role in maintaining the normal state of mutated tissues remains uncertain. Herein, we demonstrate that T cell immunity to cutaneotropic papillomaviruses promotes the homeostasis of ultraviolet radiation-damaged skin.

Pattern of Failure in Patients with Biochemical Recurrence After PSMA Radioguided Surgery.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted radioguided surgery (RGS) is evolving as a new treatment modality for patients with early biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer and disease limited to locoregional lymph nodes on PSMA-ligand PET/CT. Nevertheless, the pattern of failure (locoregional vs. systemic) after PSMA RGS remains unknown.

School Readiness Predictors of Early Academic Achievement in Children Born Very Preterm.

Objective: This study examined associations of school readiness measures obtained before school entry with academic achievement at early school age in children born very preterm (VPT, gestational age ≤ 30 weeks) and children born full term (FT, GA ≥ 37 weeks).

Method: The sample included 38 children born VPT and 30 born FT recruited at age 4 years and followed to early school age. Measures of readiness included tests of global cognition, executive function, motor abilities, and preacademic skills, as well as caregiver behavior ratings.

Biochemical Response of <0.1 ng/ml Predicts Therapy-free Survival of Prostate Cancer Patients following Prostate-specific Membrane Antigen-targeted Salvage Surgery.

Background: In a subset of patients with oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa), salvage surgery with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioguided surgery (PSMA-RGS) seems to be of value.

Objective: To evaluate whether a lower level of postoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA; <0.1 ng/ml) is predictive of therapy-free survival (TFS) following salvage PSMA-RGS.

Long-Term Outcomes of Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury Following Inpatient Rehabilitation.

Objective: Assess residual disability in youth with traumatic brain injury (TBI) treated in a pediatric inpatient rehabilitation unit and examine associations of disability with inpatient status and measures of concurrent functioning.

Setting: Large, urban, quaternary care children's hospital in the Midwestern United States.

Participants: Forty-five youth aged 6 to 18 years treated in an inpatient rehabilitation unit for mild-complicated to severe TBI at a minimum of 12 months postdischarge (mean = 3.

[Salvage lymphadenectomy for recurrent prostate cancer].

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-based positron emission tomography (PET) imaging allows early detection of metastases in patients with biochemical recurrence. Salvage lymphadenectomy became a widely used method of metastasis-directed treatment. Retrospective analyses show that a low prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value and presence of no more than two affected lymph nodes within the pelvis are factors associated with a good outcome.

Heterogeneity of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and PSMA-ligand uptake detection combining autoradiography and postoperative pathology in primary prostate cancer.

Background: Targeting prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) has been highly successful for imaging and treatment of prostate cancer. However, heterogeneity in immunohistochemistry indicates limitations in the effect of imaging and radionuclide therapy of multifocal disease. Tc-PSMA-I&S is a γ-emitting probe, which can be used for intraoperative lesion detection and postsurgical autoradiography (ARG).

Processes for culturally adapting behavioral health interventions for people with refugee backgrounds: A scoping review.

Academic literature supports cultural adaptation (CA) of evidence-informed interventions to increase accessibility and effectiveness of behavioral health treatment to meet the needs of a culturally diverse society. While several meta-analyses have shown positive outcomes of CA mental health interventions, there is a need for more information about how theoretical CA models have been applied in practice to meet the cultural and contextual needs of specific groups. This scoping review was conducted to understand how CA models have been applied to adapt evidence-informed behavioral health interventions for people with refugee backgrounds in resettlement.

Cognitive-behavioral treatment for gambling harm: Umbrella review and meta-analysis.

The aim of the current umbrella review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the methodological rigor of existing meta-analyses on cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) for gambling harm. The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, PsycINFO, and PubMed were searched for meta-analyses of CBT for gambling harm among individuals aged 18 years and older. The search yielded five meta-analyses that met inclusion criteria, representing 56 unique studies and 5389 participants.

Ryan White HIV/AIDS Part B and AIDS Drug Assistance Programs during COVID-19: safety net public health programs' challenges and innovations.

Introduction: We characterized the challenges and innovations of states' Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part B programs, including AIDS Drug Assistance Programs (ADAPs), during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the United States, these are important safety net programs for HIV healthcare, providing essential medical and support services, and medications, to people with HIV with low incomes who are uninsured/underinsured.

Methods: Data were collected via the 2021-2022 NASTAD National RWHAP Part B and ADAP Monitoring Project Report, a cross-sectional survey of state, district, and territorial programs through a mixed method study design.

Transforming Growth Factor ß1 and Gap Junction Protein Alpha 4 Gene Heterogeneity in Relation to the Severity of Clinical Disease in Cystic Fibrosis.

Background: High TGFβ1-producing variants cause severe clinical disease in F508del homozygous patients. Lately, we showed that a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs41266431, in the GJA4 gene modifies the disease severity of cystic fibrosis (CF). Our aim was to investigate whether the clinical phenotype associated with GJA4 variants was independent of TGFβ1 variants.

Associations between gender, torture, and health: A 5-year retrospective cohort analysis.

Our purpose was to identify longitudinal associations between torture exposure, physical and mental health outcomes, and gender in a cohort of 143 war-affected Karen adults five years post resettlement. Results showed that participants who self-reported primary torture experiences had higher rates of certain mental and physical health diagnoses. We observed gender differences in health over time in the cohort.

Contrasting the Effects of Alcohol and Alcohol Expectancies on Gambling Behavior.

The influence of alcohol on risk-taking may be through both pharmacological action and individual expectancies. A recent meta-analysis highlighted the need for evidence about the precise role of alcohol expectations on individuals' gambling behavior while under the influence of alcohol and a need to understand what specific gambling behaviors are influenced. This laboratory study investigated the effects of alcohol consumption and alcohol expectancies on gambling behavior in a sample of young adult men.

Access to a novel first-line single-tablet HIV antiretroviral regimen in Affordable Care Act Marketplace plans, 2018-2020.

Background: A pillar of the United States' Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative is to rapidly provide antiretroviral therapy (ART) in order to achieve HIV viral suppression. However, insurance benefit design can impede ART access. The primary objective of this study is to understand how Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace qualified health plan (QHP) formularies responded to two new ART single tablet regimens (STRs): dolutegravir/abacavir/lamivudine (DTG/ABC/3TC; approved in 2014) and bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF; approved in 2018).

Molecular Urothelial Tumor Cell Subtypes Remain Stable During Metastatic Evolution.

Urothelial cancer (UC) care is moving toward precision oncology. For tumor biology-driven treatment of metastatic UC (mUC), molecular subtypes play a crucial role. However, it is not known whether subtypes change during metastatic evolution.

Quality of Social Relationships with Parents and Peers in Adolescents Born Extremely Preterm.

Objective: Adolescents born extremely preterm (EPT, gestational age [GA] <28 weeks) are at higher risk for problems in peer socialization than those born full-term (FT, GA >36 weeks). This study was designed to examine the possibility that adolescents born EPT may also have difficulty in transitioning from parents to peers for socialization, a process referred to as "social reorienting." A secondary aim was to investigate associations of social reorienting with other neurodevelopmental characteristics.

Position-dependent effects of RNA-binding proteins in the context of co-transcriptional splicing.

Alternative splicing is an important step in eukaryotic mRNA pre-processing which increases the complexity of gene expression programs, but is frequently altered in disease. Previous work on the regulation of alternative splicing has demonstrated that splicing is controlled by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and by epigenetic DNA/histone modifications which affect splicing by changing the speed of polymerase-mediated pre-mRNA transcription. The interplay of these different layers of splicing regulation is poorly understood.

Persistent Parental RNAi in the Beetle Involves Maternal Transmission of Long Double-Stranded RNA (Advanced Genetics 3/03).

dsRNA Uptake In article 2100064 by Kristen A. Panfilio and co-workers, the cuticle exoskeleton of flour beetle larvae reveals normal anatomy (above: head-to-tail in blue-to-red) and long-term parental RNAi knockdown (below), here showing a mirror-image duplication of the abdomen (red termini to yellow center). Strong knockdown can persist for months despite transmission of full-length double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) from the mother into the egg, depleting maternal dsRNA levels.

Persistent Parental RNAi in the Beetle Involves Maternal Transmission of Long Double-Stranded RNA.

Parental RNA interference (pRNAi) is a powerful and widely used method for gene-specific knockdown. Yet in insects its efficacy varies between species, and how the systemic response is transmitted from mother to offspring remains elusive. Using the beetle , an RT-qPCR strategy to distinguish the presence of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) from endogenous mRNA is reported.
