Purpose: ATM germline pathogenic variants (GPVs) are associated with a moderately increased risk of female breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer. Resources for managing ATM heterozygotes in clinical practice are limited.
Methods: An international workgroup developed a clinical practice resource to guide management of ATM heterozygotes using peer-reviewed publications and expert opinion.
The purpose of this study was to examine the content of workout videos on TikTok. A sample of 297 TikTok workout videos was coded for demographic factors and body shape of content creators, as well as the presence of body positivity messaging, appearance-related messaging, and other relevant themes. The results suggest that TikTok workout content is often presented in a time-lapse format with little verbal instruction, which may make it difficult for viewers to perform the exercises.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFFish protein hydrolysates used in larval diets have been prepared from a variety of fish species, with different enzymes used to hydrolyze the protein. This study's objectives were to determine the effect of the dietary inclusion of fish muscle hydrolysates obtained from species-specific muscle/enzymes-versus hydrolysates produced from muscle/enzymes of a different species-on the growth performance, survival, skeletal development, intestinal peptide uptake, and muscle-free amino acid (FAA) composition of larval Walleye (). Eight protein products were obtained for this study, comprising an unhydrolyzed and hydrolyzed product from each combination of muscle/enzymes from Walleye and Nile tilapia ().

This systematic literature review aimed to summarize the epidemiological and economic burden estimates of RSV infection at any age in Germany.
Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search to identify full-text articles published from 2003 to 2023 and reporting data on the epidemiological or economic burden of RSV in Germany.
Electron paramagnetic resonance-on-a-chip (EPRoC) devices use small voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) for both the excitation and detection of the EPR signal, allowing access to unique sample environments by lifting the restrictions imposed by resonator-based EPR techniques. EPRoC devices have been successfully used at multiple frequencies (7 to 360 gigahertz) and have demonstrated their utility in producing high-resolution spectra in a variety of spin centers. To enable quantitative measurements using EPRoC devices, the spatial distribution of the field produced by the VCOs must be known.
