Level densities of J pi=2+ and 2- states extracted from high-resolution studies of E2 and M2 giant resonances in 58Ni and 90Zr are used to test recent predictions of a possible parity dependence. The experimental results are compared to a combinatorial approach based on the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov model and to shell-model Monte Carlo calculations including both spin and parity projection. No parity dependence is observed experimentally, which is in agreement for 90Zr but in contrast with the model predictions for 58Ni.

Association between the number of remaining teeth and pseudarthrosis after lumbar interbody fusion: A retrospective cohort study.

J Orthop Sci

January 2025

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Faculty of Medicine and Graduate of Medicine, Hokkaido University, N15W7, Sapporo, Hokkaido, 065-0024, Japan.

Background: Pseudarthrosis is a major complication after posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and transforaminal interbody fusion (TLIF), and its risk factors need to be identified. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the number of remaining teeth (NRT) and pseudarthrosis.

Methods: NRT, preoperative bone density of the proximal femur (percentages of young adult mean; % YAM), and preoperative procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) (μg/L) were retrospectively investigated in 63 patients (24 male and 39 female, mean age: 71.

Cutting-edge lipid-lowering pharmacological therapies: Improving lipid control beyond statins.

Hipertens Riesgo Vasc

January 2025

Hospital Pharmacist Manager, Pharmaceutical Department, Asl Napoli 3 Sud., Italy. Electronic address:

Statins are crucial for both the prevention and management of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). However, even with optimized statin therapy, a significant residual risk of ASCVD remains, highlighting the need for innovative approaches to lipid-lowering therapies (LLT) that more effectively target low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and other atherogenic lipoproteins. Recently, novel pharmacologic agents have been introduced for the management of dyslipidemia.

Introduction: Dyslipidemia is characterized by changes in lipid and lipoprotein levels in the blood where phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) helps to regulate and modulate the size of high-density lipoproteins (HDL), working on the reverse transport of cholesterol. ApoA-1 is the primary protein component of HDL, and certain genetic variants like rs5072, have been associated with hypertriglyceridemia in children. This study aimed to explore the association between PLTP concentrations and the effect of the genetic variant APOA1 rs5072 on hypertriglyceridemia and atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) in the pediatric population of Southeastern Mexico.

Microplastic contamination in the St. Lawrence River and Estuary (SLRE), Canada, poses potential risks to aquatic species. However, limited understanding of microplastic contamination in benthic fish, potentially more vulnerable than pelagic species, impedes effective risk assessment in this crucial ecosystem.
