Understanding what another agent can see relates functionally to the understanding of what they can do. We propose that spatial perspective taking and perceiving other's affordances, while two separate spatial processes, together share the common social function of predicting the behavior of others. Perceiving the action capabilities of others allows for a common understanding of how agents may act together. The ability to take another's perspective focuses an understanding of action goals so that more precise understanding of intentions may result. This review presents an analysis of these complementary abilities, both in terms of the frames of reference and the proposed sensorimotor mechanisms involved. Together, we argue for the importance of reconsidering the role of basic spatial processes to explain more complex behaviors.

Molecular characterization of tumors is essential to identify predictive biomarkers that inform treatment decisions and improve precision immunotherapy development and administration. However, challenges such as the heterogeneity of tumors and patient responses, limited efficacy of current biomarkers, and the predominant reliance on single-omics data, have hindered advances in accurately predicting treatment outcomes. Standard therapy generally applies a "one size fits all" approach, which not only provides ineffective or limited responses, but also an increased risk of off-target toxicities and acceleration of resistance mechanisms or adverse effects.

Introduction: This study aimed to analyze the worldwide, regional burden of endometriosis and its trends from 1990 to 2019, utilizing the latest data from Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019. GBD 2019 is a global database tool for comprehensive analysis and an important result of long-term collaboration among governments worldwide.
Methods: We utilized the Global Health Data Exchange Query tool to analyze endometriosis in prevalence numbers, age-standardized prevalence rates (ASPR), and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) from 1990 to 2019 in 204 countries and regions.

Heterogeneity during (Mtb) infection greatly impacts disease outcome and complicates treatment. This heterogeneity encompasses many facets, spanning local differences in the host immune response to Mtb and the environment experienced by the bacterium, to nonuniformity in Mtb replication state. All of these facets are interlinked and each can affect Mtb susceptibility to antibiotic treatment.

Spatial transcriptomics (ST) offers enormous potential to decipher the biological and pathological heterogeneity in precious archival cancer tissues. Traditionally, these tissues have rarely been used and only examined at a low throughput, most commonly by histopathological staining. ST adds thousands of times as many molecular features to histopathological images, but critical technical issues and limitations require more assessment of how ST performs on fixed archival tissues.

Background: Emerging perspectives on tumor metabolism reveal its heterogeneity, a characteristic yet to be fully explored in gliomas. To advance therapies targeting metabolic processes, it is crucial to uncover metabolic differences and identify distinct metabolic subtypes. Therefore, we aimed to develop a classification system for gliomas based on the enrichment levels of four key metabolic pathways: glutaminolysis, glycolysis, the pentose phosphate pathway, and fatty acid oxidation.
