Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: Efficacy in Improving Clinical, Neuropsychological, and Quality of Life in Women Victims of Violence.

Background: The number of female victims of violence has significantly increased in recent years, resulting in physical, mental, and social damage.

Objective: To determine the effectiveness of the eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) psychotherapeutic model compared with narrative exposure therapy (NET) as treatments for clinical improvement, neuropsychological outcomes, and quality of life in women who have experienced violence.

Methods: A randomized experimental study was conducted, involving 120 women exposed to physical, psychological, and sexual violence, who were assigned to either an EMDR or NET group.

Evaluation of Scalibor® deltamethrin collar chronic exposure in dogs.

Deltamethrin is a pesticide used worldwide with several applications in the control of nuisance arthropods in homes, agriculture, against ectoparasites in dogs and livestock. Recent studies indicate that deltamethrin can induce cardiotoxicity. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the toxicity of deltamethrin in dogs through exposure to commercial collars over 8 months.

The miR319-based repression of SlTCP2/LANCEOLATE activity is required for regulating tomato fruit shape.

Fruit morphogenesis is determined by the coordination of cell division and expansion, which are fundamental processes required for the development of all plant organs. Here, we show that the regulation of TEOSINTE BRANCHED1/CYCLOIDEA/PCF (TCP) LANCEOLATE (TCP2/LA) by miR319 is crucial for tomato fruit morphology. The loss of miR319 regulation in the semi-dominant La mutant led to a premature SlTCP2/LA expression during gynoecium patterning, which results in modified cell division during carpel development.
