The chinaberry yellow-banded longhorn beetle, Hope 1842 (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is an important pest on many economic tree species. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of was determined, which was 15,837 bp in length and contained 37 genes, including 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA, 22 tRNA genes, and a non-coding A + T-rich region. The phylogenetic analysis based on mitochondrial genomes showed that is sister to a clade formed by and .

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to evaluate three nutritional screening tools (NRS 2002, MUST, MNA-SF) against the new ESPEN criteria for malnutrition in elderly patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
  • - Out of 255 patients screened, 20% were identified as malnourished according to ESPEN criteria, while the tools indicated varying percentages of malnutrition risk: NRS 2002 (52.2%), MUST (37.6%), and MNA-SF (47.8%).
  • - MUST was found to be the most accurate tool for identifying malnutrition when compared to the ESPEN criteria, with a statistically significant correlation, indicating further research is needed to confirm these results.
