Article Synopsis
- A genotype-by-environment (G×E) interaction occurs when different genotypes respond uniquely to varying environmental conditions, with this study focusing on Chinook salmon under different water flow regimes.
- The research aimed to evaluate whether manipulating water flow in salmon production impacts genetic performance, especially since water flow is an overlooked variable affecting metabolism.
- Results indicated minimal G×E interactions between low and moderate flow regimes, suggesting that feeding behavior should be prioritized to enhance feed efficiency in salmon farming rather than adjusting for flow differences.
We present the complete mitochondrial genome of from Salinas, CA. The mitochondrial genome of is circular, AT rich (78.1%), and 16,671 bp in length.

This article will describe genomic analytic methods to be utilized in this longitudinal, randomized clinical trial of older adult AA women in Chicago and NYC that examines the effect of the RiSE intervention on DNAm pre- and post-intervention, and its overall influence on inflammatory burden. Salivary DNAm will be measured at baseline and 6 months following the intervention, using the Oragene-DNA kit.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with obesity and endometrial cancer receiving care from January 2018 to March 2021 at a single institution. Obesity intervention was defined as receipt of at least one of the following: referral to weight loss clinic, referral to a nutritionist, completion of obesity intervention tab, or documentation of weight loss counseling.
Background: NCCN Guidelines for Hematopoietic Growth Factors recommend evaluation and treatment of anemia in patients with cancer. However, a paucity of data exists regarding compliance with these recommendations.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed of patients diagnosed with any solid tumor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center from 2008 to 2017.
