Acute stress has enduring effects on the brain and motivated behavior across species. For example, acute stress produces persisting decreases in voluntary physical activity as well as molecular changes in the striatum, a brain region that regulates voluntary physical activity and other motivated behaviors. Microglia, the primary immune cells of the central nervous system, are positioned at the interface between neural responses to stress and neural coordination of voluntary activity in that they respond to stress, sense molecular changes in the striatum, and modulate neuronal activity.

Dual reporters encoding two distinct proteins within the same mRNA have had a crucial role in identifying and characterizing unconventional mechanisms of eukaryotic translation. These mechanisms include initiation via internal ribosomal entry sites (IRESs), ribosomal frameshifting, stop codon readthrough and reinitiation. This design enables the expression of one reporter to be influenced by the specific mechanism under investigation, while the other reporter serves as an internal control.

This Letter presents a search for highly ionizing magnetic monopoles in 262  μb^{-1} of ultraperipheral Pb+Pb collision data at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.36  TeV collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. A new methodology that exploits the properties of clusters of hits reconstructed in the innermost silicon detector layers is introduced to study highly ionizing particles in heavy-ion data.

The role of General Practice Pharmacists (GPPs) has expanded in response to increasing demands on primary care services, particularly in managing chronic conditions. While GPPs are recognised for their contributions to medication optimisation and patient care, challenges such as role clarity, workload pressures, and confidence in clinical decision-making remain underexplored. This study aims to investigate the tasks, professional identity, confidence levels, and challenges faced by GPPs in Northern Ireland.

Introduction: Patients may not feel responsible for reporting safety events, and social norms may prevent patients from questioning health care providers' judgment. There is a paucity of research regarding public awareness of reportable safety events/risks. Educating the public about reporting is paramount in error prevention.
