In attachment research, there has been a growing interest in how adults conceptualize their relationships with their own parents as well as in the transmission of attachment status from parent to child and the variables that influence that transmission. The primary goal of the present study was to examine the transmission of attachment from deaf mother to child. Adult Attachment Interviews were collected on 32 deaf women and Strange Situation Procedure data were obtained from their children. While the distribution of deaf mother attachment classifications was similar to that found with hearing samples, the concordance between mother and child in terms of attachment status was lower than in hearing samples. Having a deaf parent did not affect a deaf adult's attachment status. Post hoc analyses suggested a trend towards a dismissing stance in attachment relationships. Results are discussed in terms of variables affecting attachment status as well as the transmission of attachment.

Distinct checkpoint and homolog biorientation pathways regulate meiosis I in Drosophila oocytes.

Mitosis and meiosis have two mechanisms for regulating the accuracy of chromosome segregation: error correction and the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC). We have investigated the function of several checkpoint proteins in meiosis I of Drosophila oocytes. Increased localization of several SAC proteins was found upon depolymerization of microtubules by colchicine.

Article Synopsis
- Measuring the heart rate of sea turtles helps us understand their physiological adaptations, particularly focusing on the non-invasive ECG methods developed for loggerhead turtles.
- The study explored alternative electrode placements on the plastron of green sea turtles, finding successful ECG readings when the negative electrode was positioned near the neck.
- Results showed that resting heart rates averaged about 8.6 beats per minute, aligning with previous studies, and highlight the need for careful individual selection to improve measurement reliability.
Low folate biomarker concentrations are associated with increase the risk and severity of periodontitis in adults: A cross-sectional study based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009-2014.

We sought to test the hypothesis that adult folate biomarker concentrations are negatively associated with the risk and severity of periodontitis. Data were pooled from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009 to 2014. A total of 9252 dentate adult subjects aged 30 years and older who received a periodontal examination and had complete folate biomarker data were included in the analysis.

Background: People with cerebral palsy are largely dependent on their caregivers, who are most often members of their family. Caring for people with disabilities can be challenging as both dependents and caregivers face problems of social isolation and stigmatization.
Aim: The aim of this study was to understand the experiences of caregivers of dependents with cerebral palsy in Greece.

Laboratoire RESHAPE, Université Claude Bernard Lyon 1, INSERM UMR 1290, 8 Av. Rockefeller, Lyon, 69008, France.
Background: Little is known about postdischarge healthcare resource use (HCU) among patients hospitalized for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The objective was to identify distinct profiles of patients based on postdischarge cares.
Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study using the French National Health System claims database.
