Population-specific patterns in assessing molecular subtypes of young black females with triple-negative breast cancer.

We determined triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtypes, genetic ancestry, and immune features in a cohort of self-reported Black females with TNBC diagnosed at or below age 50. Among 104 tumors, 34.6% were basal-like 1 (BL1), 17.

Cortical tinnitus evaluation using functional near-infrared spectroscopy.

Unlabelled: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) estimates the cortical hemodynamic response induced by sound stimuli. fNIRS can be used to understand the symptomatology of tinnitus and consequently provide effective ways of evaluating and treating the symptom.

Objective: Compare the changes in the oxy-hemoglobin and deoxy-hemoglobin concentration of individuals with and without tinnitus using auditory stimulation by fNIRS.

The Sustainability Spillover: Uncovering the Link Between Informal Elder Care and Eco-Conscious Behaviors Across the European Union.

Background And Objectives: This study explores the association between informal caregiving for older adults and environmentally sustainable behaviors across the 27 European Union countries, aiming to identify how the gendered and domestic nature of environmentalism relates to senior care.

Research Design And Methods: Data from 41,742 respondents aged 16-74 were analyzed from the Survey of Gender Gaps in Unpaid Care, Individual and Social Activities, and conducted by a scientific consortium in 2022. Frequency of sustainable behaviors was measured across 10 indicators.

Effects of carbohydrate reduced diet associated with strength training on clinical signs of women with polycystic ovary syndrome: Randomized clinical trial.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of a low-carbohydrate diet associated with strength training on the clinical signs of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Research Methods And Procedures: A randomized clinical trial was carried out including 29 women over 18 years old diagnosed with PCOS, randomized into two groups, with follow-up for 12 weeks: the low-carbohydrate diet group associated with strength exercise (LCDE); and the standard diet group associated with strength exercise (SDE). We evaluated manifestations of acne, hirsutism by the Ferriman-Gallwey scale and alopecia by the Ludwig-Savin scale, and assessed laboratory tests for total and free testosterone, dehydroepiandrosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and luteinizing hormone.
