Canine cutaneous/subcutaneous soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are diversely derived mesenchymal neoplasms with a risk of recurrence and/or metastasis depending on the extent of surgical excision and histologic grade. Lymphoid aggregates (LAs) are often described in these tumours but not characterised. In humans, LA characterised as tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) improve the prognosis of many tumours, including sarcomas.

- People who have had a stroke are significantly more likely to experience another stroke compared to those who haven't, making it vital to address lifestyle factors like inactivity and poor diet to lower blood pressure and stroke risk.
- Survivors often face barriers to accessing risk reduction services, such as long wait times and limited transportation, highlighting the need for more accessible solutions, like an online health intervention platform.
- The i-REBOUND after stroke website was developed using a collaborative approach and design thinking framework, focusing on creating an easy-to-navigate resource tailored to stroke survivors, by adapting existing telehealth programs for better accessibility and support.
Background: The relationships between diet quality and health care costs have not been explored beyond 15 years.
Objective: To investigate relationships between both baseline diet quality and change in diet quality over time with cumulative data on health care claims and costs over 21 years among Australian women.
Design: This is a secondary analysis of data from a cohort study, the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health.
Secondary forests represent a significant proportion of global forest cover, with over 70% of forests in East Asia classified as regenerating. While succession has been studied extensively in temperate systems, trajectories of subtropical succession remain poorly characterized in highly disturbed, urban-adjacent forests. Investigating the additive beta diversity components of turnover and nestedness may reveal community assembly mechanisms driving secondary succession.

The primary aim was to evaluate the impact of an online targeted nutrition challenge email campaign that encouraged engagement with NMNT and goal setting to improve diet quality and weekly food expenditure. A secondary aim was to assess NMNT engagement.
