START domains generate paralog-specific regulons from a single network architecture.

Functional divergence of transcription factors (TFs) has driven cellular and organismal complexity throughout evolution, but its mechanistic drivers remain poorly understood. Here we test for new mechanisms using CORONA (CNA) and PHABULOSA (PHB), two functionally diverged paralogs in the CLASS III HOMEODOMAIN LEUCINE ZIPPER (HD-ZIPIII) family of TFs. We show that virtually all genes bound by PHB ( ~ 99%) are also bound by CNA, ruling out occupation of distinct sets of genes as a mechanism of functional divergence.

Global radiotherapy demands and corresponding radiotherapy-professional workforce requirements in 2022 and predicted to 2050: a population-based study.

Background: Addressing the challenge of cancer control requires a comprehensive, integrated, and global health-system response. We aimed to estimate global radiotherapy demands and requirements for radiotherapy professionals from 2022 to 2050.

Methods: We conducted a population-based study using data from the Global Cancer Observatory (GLOBOCAN) 2022 and predicted global radiotherapy demands and workforce requirements in 2050.

A U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) overview of Pan American botanicals used in dietary supplements and herbal medicines.

The United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP) is a nonprofit, scientific, standard-setting organization, and world leader in establishing quality, purity, and testing standards for medicines, foods, and dietary supplements. USP quality standards are used in more than 140 countries and are legally recognized by more than 40 countries. Currently, there is renewed interest in herbal medicines globally, and health policies are being implemented worldwide for the use of complementary and traditional medicine.

Descriptive Epidemiology of Gastric Cancer: A Population-Based Study From Georgia.

Background Gastric cancer (GC) remains a significant public health issue in many countries globally due to its high morbidity and mortality rates. In Georgia, the incidence of GC reflects the prevalence patterns of established risk factors. To develop appropriate prevention and treatment strategies, GC requires a comprehensive approach and research.
