Translation of a longitudinal survey of veterans' well-being into action by a research-practice-policy partnership.

Introduction: Research-practice-policy partnerships are shifting the academic research paradigm toward collaboration and research-informed action at community and policy levels. In this case study, researchers partnered with philanthropic foundations to actualize data findings from a rigorous, longitudinal study.

Context: In 2016, a survey of post-9/11 military veterans began assessing veterans' well-being in key domains: health, vocation (education and employment), finances, and social relationships.

Genomic Regions Associated with Spontaneous Abortion in Holstein Heifers.

The dairy industry relies on reproductive efficiency to maintain efficient milk production. Spontaneous abortion (SA), defined as pregnancy loss between gestation days 42 and 260, occurred in 4.5% of the artificially inseminated (AI) Holstein heifers and 31.

Cross-Sex Hormone Therapy Is Associated With Loss of Circadian Rhythm in the Male Rat.

Background: Transgender women are individuals born male but identify as female. Many transgender women undergo gender-affirming hormone therapy to alleviate the distress that can occur due to gender incongruence. For transgender women, gender-affirming hormone therapy includes 17β-estradiol (E2) combined with an antiandrogen therapy (AA) or surgical intervention.

Genomic regions associated with Holstein heifer times bred to artificial insemination and embryo transfer services.

This study aimed to identify loci (p < 1 × 10) and gene sets (normalized enrichment score (NES) ≥ 3.0) associated with the number of times a heifer is bred to attain a successful pregnancy (TBRD) for Holstein heifers bred by artificial insemination (AI, n = 2754) or that were embryo transfer (ET, n = 1566) recipients. Eight loci were associated (p < 1 × 10) with TBRD in AI bred heifers and four loci were associated with TBRD in ET recipients.
