National disparities favoring males are reflected in girls' implicit associations about gender and academic subjects.

Based on data for = 2,756 children (1,410 girls; = 8.10 years) from 16 data sets spanning five nations, this study investigated relations between national gender disparities and children's beliefs about gender and academic subjects. One national-level gender disparity involved inequalities in socioeconomic standing favoring adult males over females (U.

Factors Associated with Breastfeeding Initiation and Continuation at Two Months Postpartum in American Indian Women: An Exploratory Analysis.

This study aimed to determine the prevalence of breastfeeding initiation and continuation at two months postpartum in American Indian (AI) mothers in South Dakota and to identify factors associated with breastfeeding. Using logistic regression, data from the South Dakota Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System were used to investigate the relationship between binary breastfeeding initiation and continuation outcomes and maternal behaviors and experiences including access to health care, safe sleep practices, ability to handle life events, depression, and sources of breastfeeding information. Higher odds of initiation were seen for factors including access to health care services, ability to handle life events, and sources of breastfeeding information, while lower odds were seen for factors including safe sleep.

The Prp19C/NTC subunit Syf2 and the Prp19C/NTC-associated protein Cwc15 function in TREX occupancy and transcription elongation.

The Prp19 complex (Prp19C), also named NineTeen Complex (NTC), is conserved from yeast to human and functions in many different processes such as genome stability, splicing, and transcription elongation. In the latter, Prp19C ensures TREX occupancy at transcribed genes. TREX, in turn, couples transcription to nuclear mRNA export by recruiting the mRNA exporter to transcribed genes and consequently to nascent mRNAs.

Selective gene expression maintains human tRNA anticodon pools during differentiation.

Transfer RNAs are essential for translating genetic information into proteins. The human genome contains hundreds of predicted tRNA genes, many in multiple copies. How their expression is regulated to control tRNA repertoires is unknown.
