The purpose of this study was to compare rates and forms of aggression among members of men's and women's recreational flag football teams during loosely supervised recreational periods on a college campus. We obtained data on forms of aggression using an event recording system. The data supported the hypothesis that overall rates of aggression were higher among male teams. It turned out that the frequency of the three forms of aggression that we observed across men's and women's teams had the same rank order, but that the relative proportions of the three forms of aggression were quite different. The implications of these findings for future research on aggression and on the supervision of recreational teams are discussed.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Highly targeted therapies have been developed for different subtypes of breast cancer, including hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. However, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and metastatic breast cancer disease are primarily treated with chemotherapy, which improves disease-free and overall survival, but does not offer a curative solution for these aggressive forms of breast cancer.

Background/objectives: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in men. The increase in incidence rates of more advanced and aggressive forms of the disease year-to-year fuels urgency to find new therapeutic interventions and bolster already established ones. PCa is a uniquely targetable disease in that it is fueled by male hormones (androgens) that drive tumorigenesis via the androgen receptor or AR.

: Brain cancers represent a formidable oncological challenge characterized by their aggressive nature and resistance to conventional therapeutic interventions. The tumor microenvironment has emerged as a critical determinant of tumor progression and treatment efficacy. Within this complex ecosystem, microglia and macrophages play fundamental roles, forming intricate networks with peripheral immune cell populations, particularly T cells.

Melanoma is characterized by its aggressiveness, high metastatic potential, and numerous mutations, which limit the effectiveness of current treatments. To address this issue, we developed a dissolvable microneedle (MN) system composed of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (PEtOz) and chondroitin sulfate (CS). This MN system was loaded with liposomes containing both a NIR-II photothermal small molecule (IRLy) and the natural anticancer agent Gambogic acid (GA), forming Lip(IRLy + GA) MNs.
