In 2 studies, the authors explored preadolescent and adolescent use of personal homepages in relation to mastery and identity formation. In Study 1, the authors attempted to determine the prevalence of personal homepage and online journal (blog) construction among a random sample (N=500) of preadolescents and adolescents. Adolescents were more likely to create personal homepages or blogs than preadolescents. Creation was related to feelings of mastery, expressions of identity, and a means to socialize. In Study 2, the authors explored the relationship of homepages to mastery and identity formation by content analysis of a random sample of homepages. Results suggest children use personal homepages to express and explore their forming identities.

Background: Recently, there have been an increasing number of reports on the association between inflammatory markers and the prognosis of malignant tumors. However, the current inflammatory indicators have limited accuracy. We aimed to develop a new scoring system for predicting endometrial cancer recurrence using inflammatory markers, tumor markers, and histological diagnoses.

Purpose: For next of kin (NK) to people with epilepsy (PWE) insufficient knowledge about the disease might have a negative impact on disease management, utilization of the health care system and conveyance of attitudes in the society. The aim of this study was to investigate to which degree Norwegian NK to PWE called for and obtained relevant information about different epilepsy-related issues.
Methods: We invited NK visiting the homepage of the Norwegian Epilepsy Association to complete an online questionnaire regarding information about epilepsy.

Purpose: Mobile health applications have been widely adopted among breast cancer survivors for disease management; however, their use specifically for the prevention of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) remains sparse. This study is aimed at developing a WeChat-based intervention program for the prevention of BCRL based on the common-sense model (CSM).
Methods: This study was designed based on intervention mapping.

Article Synopsis
- Inverted repeats are repetitive genomic elements that can create hairpin and cruciform structures, contributing to genomic instability and various biological functions.
- Advances in genome sequencing have resulted in a significant increase in the number of complete genomes available but lack a centralized resource for inverted repeats.
- InvertiaDB is the first comprehensive database that hosts over 30 million inverted repeat sequences from 118,070 organisms, offering a user-friendly web portal for searching, visualizing, and downloading data for research purposes.
