The phenomena of father's absence and the disruption of a family unit due to social justice issues like incarceration and mental health/substance misuse challenges are widely documented, and their effects on the whole family are well established in the literature. This paper specifically examines how systemic inequities like racism contribute to destructive entitlements that can occur transgenerationally within families affected by father's absence. The consideration of racial trauma is crucial, as father's absence and family disruption are not limited to any one racial or ethnic group, but the effects are often exacerbated for families of color due to the intersecting impacts of systemic racism.

Importance: Two meta-analyses published in 2012 found breech presentation, family history of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), female sex, and primiparity to increase the risk of DDH. However, the DDH definition, reference tests, and the age of the examined children varied considerably, complicating the translation of those findings to current screening guidelines.
Objective: To evaluate the association of previously proposed risk factors with the risk of sonography-verified DDH.

Determining the ecology of fossil species presents considerable challenges due to the often fragmentary preservation of specimens. The mammaliaform Hadrocodium wui from the Jurassic of China is known only from the cranium and mandible but may have had a fossorial lifestyle. It shares morphological similarities with talpid moles and soricid shrews and is closely related to other fossorial mammaliaforms.

We report the case of a 71-year-old woman with recurrence of type B3 thymoma in which the diagnostic accuracy has benefited considerably from the additional use of [68Ga]FAPI PET/CT when compared with the standard [18F]FDG PET. [68Ga]FAPI PET/CT confirmed the known lesions with higher lesion-to-background ratio and additionally identified a previously undetected lesion near the FDG-avid apex of the heart. This case demonstrates a potential superiority of [68Ga]FAPI PET/CT in patients suffering from thymoma as detection of local recurrence close to metabolically active organs (ie, liver, heart) is improved.
