Introduction: Effective prevention and management strategies for chronic pain remain elusive. This has prompted investigations into biomarkers to better understand the mechanisms underlying pain development and persistence. One promising marker is low peak alpha frequency (PAF), an electroencephalography (EEG) measure that has been associated with increased sensitivity during acute experimental pain.

These sequences will allow us to gain more insight into the genetic relationship between endemic viruses in Mexico and the emergence of epizootic lineages in the United States.

However, some of these illnesses progress to the lower airways. Although studies have found infection with certain viral species are more likely to trigger lower respiratory illnesses (LRIs), a comprehensive analysis of viruses underlying early-life LRIs is lacking.

We characterize its binding properties as a receptor of methyl trioctyl ammonium chloride () in a dichloromethane solution. To this end, we performed H NMR and UV-vis spectroscopic titrations.

Floreciendo is a sexual and reproductive health program for Latina teens and their female caregivers, adapted from the IMARA evidence-based program.
Purpose: We prepared for delivering Floreciendo by developing an implementation plan to support the program's adoption and sustainment.
