Article Synopsis
- The study aims to improve predictions of disease outcomes for breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) by analyzing clinical and histopathological data.
- Researchers evaluated a cohort of 257 Finnish breast cancer patients over 13 years, identifying significant prognostic factors and previously overlooked histological features that correlate with treatment response and survival.
- The findings suggest the importance of re-assessing biomarkers post-treatment and developing personalized surveillance and treatment strategies based on comprehensive evaluations of patient data and risk factors.
Article Synopsis
- Ideal partner preferences shape key insights in human mating research, but recent studies face issues such as inconsistent analysis methods and varying findings across different populations.
- A large-scale study involving 10,358 participants from 43 countries revealed significant effects of preference matching, particularly when analyzing traits collectively, with some traits showing minimal impact on partner evaluations.

- The research highlights coercive control as a significant issue for vulnerable groups such as intimate partners, children, and migrants, aiming to enhance support services for pandemic-related DV.
Previous research indicates that the COVID-19 pandemic has affected dreaming negatively. We compared 1132 dreams collected with prospective two-week dream diary during the pandemic to 166 dreams collected before the pandemic. We hypothesized that the pandemic would increase the number of threatening events, threats related to diseases, and the severity of threats.
