Background: Additional to total protein content, the amino acid (AA) profile is important to the nutritional value of soybean seed. The AA profile in soybean seed is a complex quantitative trait controlled by multiple interconnected genes and pathways controlling the accumulation of each AA. With a total of 621 soybean germplasm, we used three genome-wide association study (GWAS)-based approaches to investigate the genomic regions controlling the AA content and profile in soybean.

Pseudobulbs of Pleione bulbocodioides have been used as traditional Chinese medicine for a long time to treat cancers through decoction with water. However, as its main water-soluble ingredient, the structure of polysaccharide has not been elucidated yet. To obtain its polysaccharide with antitumor activity, a series of isolation, structural identification and antitumor evaluation experiments were performed.

In forensic investigations, human keratinized tissues like skin and nails are commonly encountered as trace evidence, yet the use of vibrational spectroscopy for their identification and differentiation has been underexplored. This research utilized ATR-FTIR to distinguish between human nails and skin samples collected from a group of 50 participants, employing advanced chemometric analysis techniques. The spectral signatures of human keratinized tissues, such as nails and skin, exhibit similarities consistent with previous studies.

Background: One avenue to improve outcomes among brain tumor patients involves the mitigation of healthcare disparities. Investigating clinical differences among brain tumors across socioeconomic and demographic strata, such can aid in healthcare disparity identification and, by extension, outcome improvement.
Methods: Utilizing a racially diverse population from Hawaii, 323 cases of brain tumors (meningiomas, gliomas, schwannomas, pituitary adenomas, and metastases) were matched by age, sex, and race to 651 controls to investigate the associations between tumor type and various demographic, socioeconomic, and medical comorbidities.

Aims: The optimal management of older patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains unclear. The most effective evaluation methods for frailty and malnutrition are yet to be delineated, despite being proposed as predictors of adverse outcomes. Consequently, this study aims to assess the significance of these factors in predicting in-hospital complications within this population.
