Drug Attitude and Medication Adherence of Patients with Early Psychosis in South Korea: Mediating Effect of Medication Adherence Self-Efficacy.

Purpose: This study examined the mediating effect of medication adherence self-efficacy (MASE) on the relationship between drug attitude (DA) and medication adherence (MA) in patients with early psychosis.

Patients And Methods: A total of 166 patients, aged 20 years or older, and who had received treatment within 5 years of their initial psychotic episode at a University Hospital outpatient center, participated in the study. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, -tests, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple linear regression.

E3 ligase AtAIRP5/GARU regulates drought stress response by stimulating SERINE CARBOXYPEPTIDASE-LIKE1 turnover.

Ubiquitination is a major mechanism of eukaryotic posttranslational protein turnover that has been implicated in abscisic acid (ABA)-mediated drought stress response. Here, we isolated T-DNA insertion mutant lines in which ABA-insensitive RING protein 5 (AtAIRP5) was suppressed, resulting in hyposensitive ABA-mediated germination compared to wild-type Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants. A homology search revealed that AtAIRP5 is identical to gibberellin (GA) receptor RING E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase (GARU), which downregulates GA signaling by degrading the GA receptor GID1, and thus AtAIRP5 was renamed AtAIRP5/GARU.

Deep Learning-Based Stroke Disease Prediction System Using Real-Time Bio Signals.

The emergence of an aging society is inevitable due to the continued increases in life expectancy and decreases in birth rate. These social changes require new smart healthcare services for use in daily life, and COVID-19 has also led to a contactless trend necessitating more non-face-to-face health services. Due to the improvements that have been achieved in healthcare technologies, an increasing number of studies have attempted to predict and analyze certain diseases in advance.
