Objective: To describe a novel Müllerian anomaly and management options.
Design: Case series report.
Setting: Metropolitan tertiary care children's hospital.
Patient(s): Three caucasian girls, aged 12, 13, and 15 years, with a novel congenital anomaly.
Intervention(s): Interval staged vaginoplasties.
Main Outcome Measure(s): Functional vagina.
Result(s): Didelphys Müllerian development with vaginal duplication and agenesis of both lower vaginas with staged vaginoplasties resulting in normal functional vaginas.
Conclusion(s): Staged pull-through vaginoplasties led to functional outcome in this unusual anomaly.

A novel model of central precocious puberty disease: Paternal MKRN3 gene-modified rabbit.
Animal Model Exp Med
January 2025
Guangdong Medical Laboratory Animal Center, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences), Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China.
Background: Makorin ring finger protein 3 gene (MKRN3) gene mutation is the most common genetic cause of central precocious puberty (CPP) in children. Due to the lack of ideal MKRN3-modified animal model (MKRN3-modified mice enter puberty only 4-5 days earlier than normal mice), the related research is limited.
Methods: Therefore, the MKRN3-modified rabbit was developed using CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) gene editing technology.
Rapid stimulation of protein synthesis in digesting snakes: Unveiling a novel gut-pancreas-muscle axis.
Acta Physiol (Oxf)
February 2025
Zoophysiology, Department of Biology, Aarhus University, Aarhus C, Denmark.
Aim: Snakes exhibit remarkable physiological shifts when their large meals induce robust postprandial growth after prolonged fasting. To understand the regulatory mechanisms underlying this rapid metabolic transition, we examined the regulation of protein synthesis in pythons, focusing on processes driving early postprandial tissue remodeling and growth.
Methods: Using the SUnSET method with puromycin labeling, we measured in vivo protein synthesis in fasting and digesting snakes at multiple post-feeding intervals.
Innovative Method for Reliable Measurement of PEM Water Electrolyzer Component Resistances.

Forschungszentrum Juelich GmbH, Institute of Energy Technologies, IET-4, Electrochemical Process Engineering, 52425, Juelich, Germany.
Understanding the sheet resistance of porous electrodes is essential for improving the performance of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers and related technologies. Despite its importance, existing methods often fail to provide reliable and comprehensive data, especially for porous materials with complex morphologies and non-uniform thicknesses. This study introduces a robust and straightforward method for determining the sheet resistance of porous electrodes using a novel probe concept based on industrial printed circuit board (PCB) technology.

Background: The breakthrough discovery of novel biomarkers with prognostic and diagnostic value enables timely medical intervention for the survival of patients diagnosed with gastric cancer (GC). Typically, in studies focused on biomarker analysis, highly connected nodes (hubs) within the protein-protein interaction network (PPIN) are proposed as potential biomarkers. However, this study revealed an unexpected finding following the clustering of network nodes.

Converging lines of research indicate that inhibitory control is likely to be compromised in contexts that place competing demands on emotional, motivational, and cognitive systems, potentially leading to damaging impulsive behavior. The objective of this study was to identify the neural impact of three challenging contexts that typically compromise self-regulation and weaken impulse control. Participants included 66 healthy adults (M/SD = 29.
