This study explored the relationships and differences among two measures of indirect aggression [Bjorkqvist et al., 1994; Richardson and Green, 1997] and one of relational aggression [Crick and Grotpeter, 1995]. Over 300 students (mean age 22.8 years; 61.5% female) from two colleges in the Southeastern United States completed measures of indirect and relational aggression and related constructs (e.g., empathy, anger expression, direct aggression). Although there were subtle differences among the three measures with regard to their relationships with associated variables, overall the patterns of relationships were similar as well as distinct from the pattern for direct aggression. Factor analysis of scores for measures of aggression revealed that the indirect and relational measures composed a single factor of nondirect aggression, separate from direct aggression. Further factor analysis of all unique items from the nondirect scales found the overall construct of nondirect aggression to comprise six distinct factors. Implications for applications and further research are discussed.

Diagnosis and prognosis of melanoma from dermoscopy images using machine learning and deep learning: a systematic literature review.

BMC Cancer

January 2025

Department of Data Science, Faculty of Interdisciplinary Science and Technology, Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, Iran.

Background: Melanoma is a highly aggressive skin cancer, where early and accurate diagnosis is crucial to improve patient outcomes. Dermoscopy, a non-invasive imaging technique, aids in melanoma detection but can be limited by subjective interpretation. Recently, machine learning and deep learning techniques have shown promise in enhancing diagnostic precision by automating the analysis of dermoscopy images.

Background: Residents of facilities for older people are vulnerable to COVID-19 outbreaks. Nevertheless, timely recognition of outbreaks at facilities for older people at public health centers has been impossible in Japan since May 8, 2023, when the Japanese government discontinued aggressive countermeasures against COVID-19 because of the waning severity of the dominant Omicron strain. The Facility for Elderly Surveillance System (FESSy) has been developed to improve information collection.

Introduction: Thoracic SMARCA4-deficient undifferentiated tumors (SMARCA4-UTs) are a recently defined group of aggressive cancers in which the effectiveness of standard treatments for lung cancer is unknown.

Methods: We collected clinical, pathologic, and demographic variables from five institutions for patients whose tumors met criteria for SMARCA4-UTs (undifferentiated phenotype and loss of SMARCA4 (BRG1) by immunohistochemistry).

Results: We identified 92 patients with SMARCA4-UTs; 58 (63%) had stage IV disease at diagnosis and 16 (17%) developed recurrent or metastatic disease after initial diagnosis.

Article Synopsis
  • FT596 is a novel cancer therapy using iPSC-derived CAR NK cells targeting CD19, designed to assess its safe dosage and effectiveness alone and with rituximab in patients with B-cell lymphoma.
  • This phase 1 trial involved patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell lymphoma, administering FT596 after chemotherapy, with separate regimens for those receiving rituximab and those who did not.
  • The study measured potential side effects while determining the optimal dose of FT596 and allowed modifications to the treatment based on patient tolerance and response.
