Predictors for negative large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) in a primary HPV screened population.

Objective: To assess rates of histologically negative large loop excisions of the transformation zone (LLETZ) and potential predictive factors within a single UK Colposcopy Unit.

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Setting: Jessop Wing Colposcopy Unit, Sheffield, U.

Role of MicroRNAs in regulating sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium handling and their implications for cardiomyocyte function and heart disease.

The regulation of calcium signaling within cardiomyocytes is pivotal for maintaining cardiac function, with disruptions in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) calcium handling linked to various heart diseases. This review explores the emerging role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in modulating SR calcium dynamics, highlighting their influence on cardiomyocyte maturation, function, and disease progression. We present a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms by which specific miRNAs, such as miR-1, miR-24, and miR-22, regulate key components of calcium handling, including ryanodine receptors, SERCA, and NCX.

Vaginal metastasis in gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: Experience from Sheffield trophoblastic disease Centre and recommendations for management.

Introduction: Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) is rare in the UK, with an estimated incidence of one in 50,000 live births. Cases of vaginal metastasis are even rarer, with only eight case series reporting 187 cases over the past 40 years. Management recommendations in the literature are scarce despite the potential risk of massive, potentially life-threatening vaginal haemorrhage.

Payer perspectives on genomic testing in the United States: A systematic literature review.

Purpose: Health care stakeholders' perspectives on the value of genomic testing vary widely and directly affect the access and practice of genomic medicine. To our knowledge, a review of US health care payers' perspectives on genomic testing has not been performed.

Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review of US payers' perspectives on genomic testing in the MEDLINE, PubMed, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) databases.

Alluring or Alarming? The Polarizing Effect of Forbidden Knowledge in Political Discourse.

"Forbidden knowledge" claims are central to conspiracy theories, yet they have received little systematic study. Forbidden knowledge claims imply that information is censored or suppressed. Theoretically, forbidden knowledge could be alluring alarming, depending on alignment with recipients' political worldviews.
