Evidence of expert clinical practice among nuclear medicine non-medical staff: a scoping review.

Objective: This scoping review concerns expertclinical practice (ECP) by nuclear medicine practitioners (NMP), encompassing radiographers, technologists and nurses. ECP is typically demonstrated by clinical skills with higher levels of autonomy and responsibility traditionally fulfilled by physicians. The Advanced Clinical Practice (ACP) framework by Health Education England (2017) specifies ECP as one aspect of advanced role progression.

Predatory Earwigs are Attracted by Herbivore-Induced Plant Volatiles Linked with Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria.

Plant-associated microbes may induce plant defenses against herbivores. Plants, in turn, can attract natural enemies, such as predators, using herbivore-induced plant volatiles. Intricate communication occurs between microorganisms, plants, and insects.

The transcriptional diversity of 25 Drosophila cell lines.

Drosophila melanogaster cell lines are important resources for cell biologists. Here, we catalog the expression of exons, genes, and unannotated transcriptional signals for 25 lines. Unannotated transcription is substantial (typically 19% of euchromatic signal).

Imatinib and Panax ginseng: a potential interaction resulting in liver toxicity.

Objective: To report a case of imatinib-induced hepatotoxicity after concurrent ginseng ingestion in a patient with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).

Case Summary: A 26-year-old man with CML who had taken imatinib 400 mg daily for 7 years with no complications presented with right upper quadrant pain. Laboratory test results included alanine aminotransferase 1069 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase 481 U/L, alkaline phosphatase 124 IU/L, total bilirubin 1.
