Unlabelled: Even though women have long participated in Mexico-U.S. migration studies assessing the labor market implications of international mobility for women are rare. Especially lacking are studies that follow a life-course approach and compare employment trajectories across contexts and in connection with other transitions. Using life-history data collected in Mexico and the United States, we explore the impact of migration on women's employment, focusing on how the determinants of employment vary across contexts. We show that U.S. residence eliminates or even reverses the employment returns to education found in Mexico, and that the constraints imposed on women's work by marriage are actually stronger in the U.S.
Context: We also explicitly connect migration to other life-course events, documenting how the impact of context varies not only by marital status but also by where women's unions were formed.

Endocrinologic Abnormalities Observed Among Total Joint Arthroplasty Patients Using "Artri King" and Related Over-the-Counter Supplements: A Cautionary Tale from a Safety Net Hospital.

Article Synopsis
- Artri King was an over-the-counter supplement aimed at treating joint pain, but the FDA warned it contained hidden ingredients like dexamethasone, which can pose health risks like adrenal insufficiency.
- A study was conducted on patients who used the supplement and found significant health issues, including low cortisol levels and one case of new diabetes, prompting referrals to endocrinology.
- The findings highlight the potential severe effects of such supplements, leading to recommendations for regular screening and careful monitoring of patients who use them.
Intravascular lithotripsy prior to transcarotid arterial revascularization: A technical tale of two cases.

calcific carotid stenosis is becoming more common as the advanced-age population grows, requiring new therapeutic approaches. As such, transcarotid arterial revascularization is gaining significant popularity in the management of carotid stenosis due to low rates of perioperative complications and optimal clinical outcomes. In addition, intravascular lithotripsy has shown promise in safely facilitating the success of endovascular procedures in the context of calcified lesions.

Bacteria are typically isolated on rich media to maximise isolation success, removing them from their native evolutionary context. This eliminates selection pressures, enabling otherwise deleterious genomic events to accumulate. Here, we present a cautionary tale of these 'quiet mutations' which can persist unnoticed in bacterial culture lines.

Homeostasis of proteins (proteostasis), which governs protein processing, folding, quality control, and degradation, is a fundamental cellular process that plays a pivotal role in various neurodegenerative diseases and in the natural aging process of the mammalian brain. While the role of neuronal proteostasis in neuronal physiology is well characterized, the contribution of proteostasis of glial cells, particularly of astrocytes, has received fairly less attention in this context. Here, we summarize recent data highlighting proteostasis dysfunction in astrocytes and its putative implication to neurodegenerative diseases and aging.
