Background: Native to the Amazon region, Copaifera multijuga Hayne is a large tree (≈ 36 m in height) that is heavily exploited for extraction of its oleoresin. Many studies have addressed the phytochemical properties and applications of this raw material; however, there are few initiatives that have focused on the genetic characterization of native populations of this species. To this end, our objective was to develop microsatellite markers for C.

This qualitative, analytical study evaluated 50 pairs of radiographs in two views of patients with distal radius fractures. There were ten observers with different levels of orthopedic training who assessed the radiographs in three different evaluations.

- The European Cancer Organisation's Essential Requirements for Quality Cancer Care (ERQCC) provide guidance on how to improve cancer treatment, focusing on ovarian cancer specifically.
- Ovarian cancer patients experience low cure rates due to inconsistent treatment and a need for specialized care, which should be provided in dedicated centers by qualified professionals.
- Centralized, patient-centered care throughout the entire treatment journey is essential for better outcomes but is not yet widely implemented across many European countries.

Article Synopsis
- Stress during pregnancy contributes to risks of cardiometabolic disorders and affects fetal liver protein responses, particularly in male offspring.
- A study on Wistar rats showed that prenatal stress elevated maternal corticosterone levels and resulted in lower birth weights, especially in male offspring.
- Male offspring exhibited distinct liver protein expressions related to stress responses, with increased androgen receptor and specific phosphorylation changes, while female offspring showed minimal hepatic impact from prenatal stress.
