α-Copaene is a potent repellent against the Asian Citrus Psyllid Diaphorina citri.
Sci Rep

Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of California-Davis, Davis, CA, 95616, USA.
The Asian Citrus Psyllid (ACP), Diaphorina citri, severely threatens citrus production worldwide by transmitting the greening (= Huanglongbing)-causing bacterium Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. There is growing evidence that the push-pull strategy is suitable to partially mitigate HLB by repelling ACP with transgenic plants engineered to produce repellents and attracting the vector to plants with a minimal disease transmission rate. Species that pull ACP away from commercial citrus plants have been identified, and transgenic plants that repel ACP have been developed.

Purpose: Head and neck cancer (HNC) patients face substantial morbidity and mortality. Despite the potential benefits of palliative care (PC) in improving quality of life, many HNC patients do not receive these services. This study aimed to quantify the proportion of HNC patients receiving PC, the timing of PC referrals, and the mental health and clinical outcomes of this population.

Faculty of Arts and Sciences, American University of Beirut, Riad El Solh, Beirut, 1107 2020, Lebanon.
Thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA-NRP), a new method of controlled donation after circulatory death, seems to provide more and better organs for patients on organ transplant waiting lists compared to standard controlled donation after circulatory death. Despite its benefits, the ethical permissibility of TA-NRP is currently a highly debated issue. The recent statement published by the American College of Physicians (ACP) highlights the reasons for these debates.

J Med Internet Res
January 2025
Department of Neurology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: Despite the increasing popularity of electronic devices, the longitudinal effects of daily prolonged electronic device usage on brain health and the aging process remain unclear.
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the daily use of mobile phones/computers on the brain structure and the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
Methods: We used data from the UK Biobank, a longitudinal population-based cohort study, to analyze the impact of mobile phone use duration, weekly usage time, and playing computer games on the future brain structure and the future risk of various neurodegenerative diseases, including all-cause dementia (ACD), Alzheimer disease (AD), vascular dementia (VD), all-cause parkinsonism (ACP), and Parkinson disease (PD).
Residual Mitral Regurgitation Interacts With Transmitral Mean Pressure Gradient to Modify the Association With Mortality Following Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair.
Circ Cardiovasc Interv
January 2025
Department of Cardiac Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (G.A.).
Background: The association, if any, between the transmitral mean pressure gradient (TMPG) after mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair and 1-year mortality is controversial in patients undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair with the MitraClip system. We sought to estimate the association between intraoperatively measured residual mitral regurgitation (rMR) and TMPG and 1-year mortality among patients undergoing mitral transcatheter edge-to-edge repair to facilitate decisions on additional devices.
Methods: In patients with severe secondary (functional) MR, we analyzed registry data using generalized estimating equations.
