Two experiments were conducted to explain the sex difference in field independence by reference to socialization factors. It was hypothesized that the sex-role appropriateness of the task as masculine or feminine-typed would influence the performance of masculine and feminine women in a manner congruent with their sex-role orientation. 28 pilot subjects and 100 subjects in Study 2 were equally divided between the sexes. Both studies used the Bem Sex-role Inventory, but different versions of the Embedded Figures Test. The over-all results suggested that feminine women varied their performance according to task appropriateness, although not always in a manner congruent with their sex-role orientation. Androgynous individuals and masculine men did not alter their performance.

Through Their Eyes: Defining 'good life' in dementia for health economics and outcomes research.

Despite progress in involving people living with dementia in health research, disparities remain, particularly in the field of health economics and outcomes research, where excessive reliance on proxy reports from care partners or healthcare professionals persists even when people are capable of self-reporting, leading to inequitable inclusion. This study aimed to understand the concept of a 'good life' from the perspectives of people living with dementia and examine how well current preference-based outcome measures used in health economics and outcomes research capture these perspectives. Twenty-three community-dwelling people with mild to moderate dementia in Ireland participated in in-depth interviews (September 2022-February 2023).

The use of single-guide RNA (sgRNA) for gene editing using the CRISPR Cas9 system has become a powerful technique in various fields, especially with the growing interest in such molecules as therapeutic options in the last years. An important parameter for the use of these molecules is the verification of the correct sgRNA oligonucleotide sequence. Apart from next-generation sequencing protocols, mass spectrometry (MS) has been proven as a powerful technique for this purpose.

Aim: To assess visual outcomes and satisfaction of a non-diffractive extended depth of focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL) in individuals with ocular hypertension (OHT) and well-controlled mild glaucoma undergoing cataract surgery.
Methods: An investigator-initiated, single-center, prospective, interventional, noncomparative study conducted in Montreal, Canada. The study enrolled 31 patients (55 eyes) with OHT or mild glaucoma who received a non-diffractive EDOF IOL (Acrysof IQ Vivity).

Vision loss affects more than 7 million Americans and impacts quality of life, independence, social functioning, and overall health. Common and dangerous conditions causing sudden vision loss include acute angle-closure glaucoma, retinal detachment, retinal artery occlusion, giant cell arteritis, and optic neuritis. Acute angle-closure glaucoma features ocular pain, headache, and nausea; treatment includes pilocarpine eye drops, oral or intravenous acetazolamide, and intravenous mannitol.

Algebraic structures play a vital role in securing important data. These structures are utilized to construct the non-linear components of block ciphers. Since constructing non-linear components through algebraic structures is crucial for the confusion aspects of encryption schemes, relying solely on these structures can result in limited key spaces.
