The pediatric population is one of the social groups most affected by oral pathology, and overweight and/or obesity is increasingly frequently observed. This work presents a study of the prevalence of oral disease in the school population in Mallorca and its relationship with overweight/obesity. A cross-sectional study was carried out with a sample of 718 students aged 5-6 ( = 255), 12 ( = 230) and 15 years ( = 233).

- Gainor and colleagues investigated the effectiveness of personalized mRNA vaccines that target neoantigens to stimulate immune responses in patients after tumor removal.
- In their study, they observed significant T-cell responses, specifically polyfunctional CD8+ and CD4+ T-cells, reacting to 20% to 30% of predicted MHC-I and MHC-II epitopes.
- The research involved 16 patients—four with non-small cell lung cancer receiving the vaccine alone, and twelve with melanoma treated with the vaccine alongside pembrolizumab in a phase 1 clinical trial (NCT03313778).
We present a flora and fauna dataset for the Mira-Mataje binational basins. This is an area shared between southwestern Colombia and northwestern Ecuador, where both the Chocó and Tropical Andes biodiversity hotspots converge. We systematized data from 120 sources in the Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A) standard and geospatial vector data format for geographic information systems (GIS) (shapefiles).

This article utilizes Intersectionality, Dis/ability Critical Race Studies (DisCrit), and Disability Justice to identify ways for rehabilitation researchers to adapt their research practices for maximum inclusivity and representation.
Materials And Methods: Using these three frameworks, we have developed a call to action including recommendations for rehabilitation researchers to consider as they design and implement research projects.
