Introduction: Powassan virus (POWV), a vector-borne pathogen transmitted by ticks in North America, is the causative agent of Powassan encephalitis. As obligate hematophagous organisms, ticks transmit pathogens like POWV at the tick bite site, specifically during the initial stages of feeding. Tick feeding and salivary factors modulate the host's immunological responses, facilitating blood feeding and pathogen transmission.

Higher education institutions and public health agencies in the United States (US) have recognized that food insecurity is pervasive and interferes with student learning on multiple levels. However, less research has examined food insecurity among culturally diverse college students. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted to estimate the prevalence and predictors of food insecurity for US-born White, US-born Multicultural, and International students aged 18-34 at a Midwest university.

Introduction: This study examines how gastric cancer patients adjust their eating habits and quality of life after total gastrectomy, particularly concerning early satiety. While total gastrectomy may provide a potential cure, it also leads to significant physical, psychological, and social changes. Understanding these adaptations is essential for enhancing survivorship care.

Background: Buprenorphine maintenance treatment remains unavailable in most jails in the US. We provide data on a four-day rapid sublingual buprenorphine (SL-B) induction strategy followed by a weekly dose of extended-release injectable buprenorphine (XR-B) with incarcerated individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) who were not opioid tolerant.
Methods: Between October 2020 to April 2024, = 65 individuals with an opioid use disorder in jails participating in a larger randomized, controlled trial received SL-B and XR-B prior to release.

Background & Aims: Optimal nutritional intake is essential to support nutritional status and improve recovery in hospital patients. To monitor adequate food intake in patients, reliable and accessible methods to quantify patient food intake accurately are needed. The present study aims to compare the accuracy of two methods, Food Record Charts (FRCs) and Digital Photography (DP), in estimating food intake with the gold standard of Weighed Food Records (WFRs).
