Access to Athletic Trainers and Emergency Medical Services Activations for Sport-Related Injuries.

Context: Having athletic trainers (ATs) employed at secondary schools is associated with improved preparedness for sport-related emergencies. The use of emergency medical services (EMS) in settings with different access to athletic training services remains unknown.

Objective: To compare the incidence of EMS activations for patients with sport-related injuries among zip codes with various levels of access to athletic training services.

Effect of brief exposures of anesthesia on thermotolerance and metabolic rate of the spotted-wing fly, Drosophila suzukii: Differences between sexes?

The spotted-wing fly, Drosophila suzukii, is a world-wide pest insect for which there is increasing interest in its physiological traits including metabolism and thermotolerance. Most studies focus only on survival to different time exposures to extreme temperatures, mainly in female flies. In addition, it has not been tested yet how anesthesia affects these measurements.

High interindividual variability in LDL-cholesterol reductions after inclisiran administration in a real-world multicenter setting in Germany.

Background And Aims: Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is the main therapeutic target in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) inclisiran is a new drug, which targets PCSK9 mRNA in the liver, reducing concentrations of circulating LDL-C. In randomized trials, inclisiran demonstrated a substantial reduction in LDL-C.

Extended lifespan and sex-specific fertility loss in cold-acclimated flies of the sibling species Drosophila buzzatii and Drosophila koepferae.

Survival and reproduction are the core elements of Darwinian fitness. In the context of a fixed energy budget, organisms tend to allocate resources in order to maximize one at the expense of the other, in what has been called the lifespan-reproduction trade-off. Reproductive arrest and extended lifespan are common responses to low temperatures in many insects including fruit flies.
