Barriers to and facilitators of women general practitioners' careers: a systematic review.

Background: Despite women comprising 52% of full-time equivalent general practitioners (GPs) in England, a significant gender pay gap persists (15% after adjustments). Further understanding of the barriers and facilitators impacting women GPs' careers is needed.

Aim: To identify and synthesise research evidence exploring barriers to and facilitators of women GPs' careers.

'They think we're just in God's waiting room': A discursive study on identity aloneness in stroke survivors.

This paper examines the rhetorical strategies used by stroke survivors to attend to identity aloneness, a phenomenon in which individuals experience a sense of disconnect from others as a consequence of identity change, for which stroke is known as an antecedent. Three stroke survivors, and their spouses, were interviewed about their stroke, social support, and experiences with loneliness and identity change. The data was transcribed using a simplified version of the Jeffersonian method and analysed using a critical discursive psychological approach.

Tissue-specific expression differences in Ras-related GTP-binding proteins in male rats.

The protein kinase Mechanistic Target of Rapamycin (mTOR) in Complex 1 (mTORC1) is regulated in part by the Ras-related GTP-binding proteins (Rag GTPases). Rag GTPases form a heterodimeric complex consisting of either RagA or RagB associated with either RagC or RagD and act to localize mTORC1 to the lysosomal membrane. Until recently, RagA and RagB were thought to be functionally redundant, as were RagC and RagD.

Germline and Somatic Mutations in DNA Methyltransferase 3A Predispose to Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) in Humans and Mice: .

Background: Mutations are found in 10-20% of idiopathic PAH (IPAH) patients, but none are consistently identified in connective tissue disease-associated PAH (APAH), which accounts for ∼45% of PAH cases. mutations, a cause of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminant potential (CHIP), predispose to an inflammatory type of PAH. We now examine mutations in another CHIP gene, , in PAH.
