This review emphasises the importance of the cardiovascular response to facial cooling (FC) and breath holding in both sexes. The trigemino-cardiac reflex, triggered by FC, reduces heart rate (HR) and constricts blood vessels. When combined with breath holding, this effect intensifies, enhancing the cardiodepressive impact.

Background: Mounting evidence suggests that mitochondria respond to psychosocial stress. Recent studies suggest mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions may be increased in some psychiatric disorders, but no studies have examined early-life stress (ELS) and mtDNA deletions. In this study, we assessed mtDNA deletions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of medically healthy young adults with and without ELS.

Context: The aim of this scoping review was to provide an overview of recent studies in peer reviewed journals investigating self-reported motivations to have an abortion or to continue an unwanted pregnancy in different countries and settings, including both qualitative and quantitative results.
Methods: We searched for English language publications published between 2008 and 2023 indexed in four scientific databases. We included studies if they captured people's own motivations for abortion and/ or for continuing an unwanted pregnancy.

Purpose: Sex hormones affect development and prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). This study aimed to compare the sex hormone receptor expression between control and GC, and to evaluate its correlation with patient characteristics.
Materials And Methods: 110 patients (74 with GC, 36 controls) underwent immunohistochemistry (IHC) and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for estrogen receptors (ERs) α and β and androgen receptor (AR).

Sexual dimorphism is well-documented in aquaculture, particularly regarding growth differences, wherein one sex often grows faster than the other. However, despite the phenomenon being so widely documented, its underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. As an important digestive and immune organ, the gut plays key roles in the regulation of fish growth.
