Species-specific microRNA discovery and target prediction in the soybean cyst nematode.
Sci Rep
October 2023
Department of Systems and Computer Engineering, Carleton University, Ottawa, K1S 5B6, Canada.
The soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is a devastating pathogen for economic and food security considerations. Although the SCN genome has recently been sequenced, the presence of any miRNA has not been systematically explored and reported. This paper describes the development of a species-specific SCN miRNA discovery pipeline and its application to the SCN genome.

Causal diagrams are used in biomedical research to develop and portray conceptual models that accurately and concisely convey assumptions about putative causal relations. Specifically, causal diagrams can be used for both observational studies and clinical trials to provide a scientific basis for some aspects of multivariable model selection. This methodology also provides an explicit framework for classifying potential sources of bias and enabling the identification of confounder, collider, and mediator variables for statistical analyses.

Europace
February 2023
Loyola University Chicago, Chicago, 60660, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The REDO-FIRM study compared the safety and effectiveness of FIRM-guided ablation versus conventional ablation for patients with recurrent atrial fibrillation (AF) after an initial procedure.
- Involving 269 patients, the study found no significant differences in AF recurrence rates or safety outcomes between the two methods after 12 months, with 63.3% freedom from AF in the FIRM group and 59.0% in the conventional group.
- Overall, FIRM-guided ablation did not show added efficacy over standard approaches but was equally safe, suggesting the need for further research to identify specific populations that might benefit from it.
The Role of Appendicectomy in Ulcerative Colitis: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Inflamm Bowel Dis
April 2023
General Surgery and Gastroenterology Department, NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde, Glasgow, Scotland.
Background: This updated systematic review and meta-analysis investigates the putative role of the appendix in ulcerative colitis as a therapeutic target.
Methods: Ovid Medline, Embase, PubMed and CENTRAL were searched with MeSH terms ("appendectomy" OR "appendicitis" OR "appendix") AND ("colitis, ulcerative") through October 2020, producing 1469 references. Thirty studies, including 118 733 patients, were included for qualitative synthesis and 11 for quantitative synthesis.
Proteomics of isolated sieve tubes from : sieve element-specific proteins reveal differentiation of the endomembrane system.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
January 2022
School of Biological Sciences, Washington State University, Pullman, WA 99154;
Symplasmicly connected cells called sieve elements form a network of tubes in the phloem of vascular plants. Sieve elements have essential functions as they provide routes for photoassimilate distribution, the exchange of developmental signals, and the coordination of defense responses. Nonetheless, they are the least understood main type of plant cells.
