The role of the jasmonate signalling transcription factors MYC2/3/4 in circadian clock-mediated regulation of immunity in Arabidopsis.

Plants are exposed to pathogens at specific, yet predictable times of the day-night cycle. In Arabidopsis, the circadian clock influences temporal differences in susceptibility to the necrotrophic pathogen . The jasmonic acid (JA) pathway regulates immune responses against .

Improving Miscarriage Prevention Research: a survey exploring the expectations of service users and stakeholders (IMPRESS) - a study protocol for a UK-based survey.

Introduction: Interventional clinical trials in recurrent miscarriage use varying expected effect sizes to inform their sample size calculations. Often these are not informed by what stakeholders consider a meaningful treatment effect. Adaptive trial designs may integrate stakeholder views on trial success and futility but the criteria to inform this is lacking.

COVID Recovery Laparoscopic Simulation Program for Gynecological Registrars-Trainee Perceptions of Regional Model.

Study Objective: The acquisition of gynecological operating skills can be challenging for trainees given the conflicting demands of clinical work. Alternative models of surgical skill training such as laparoscopic simulation is, therefore, required. This study demonstrates the development of a regional gynecological surgery laparoscopic simulation program and trainee perceptions of such an approach.

Lessons learned from bovine subclinical endometritis: A systematic review exploring its potential relevance to chronic endometritis in women.

Chronic endometritis (CE) in humans is asymptomatic inflammation of the endometrium, associated with poor reproductive outcomes. Similarly asymptomatic endometrial inflammation in cows, termed subclinical endometritis (SCE), is associated with adverse reproductive outcomes. While the pathophysiology and treatment options for CE in humans remains poorly defined, the financial implications of SCE in dairy cows mean it has been intensively researched.

The endometrial microbiota and early pregnancy loss.

The human endometrium is a dynamic entity that plays a pivotal role in mediating the complex interplay between the mother and developing embryo. Endometrial disruption can lead to pregnancy loss, impacting both maternal physical and psychological health. Recent research suggests that the endometrial microbiota may play a role in this, although the exact mechanisms are still being explored, aided by recent technological advancements and our growing understanding of host immune responses.
