This article summarizes a proposed critical and intersectional model of LGBTQ microaggressions that can be used by scholars and practitioners from multiple disciplines. Drawing on critical and intersectional paradigms and decades of research from multiple fields, we constructed a model that acknowledges the breadth, depth, scope, and complexity of LGBTQ microaggressions. This proposed model includes the following elements: hegemonic influences, intersectional complexities, perpetration, interpersonal and environmental contexts, and responses.

Adult nephrotic syndrome is primarily caused by membranous nephropathy (MN), with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) being a prominent subtype. The onset of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R1)-associated IMN is critically linked to M-type PLA2R1 exposure, yet the mechanism underlying glomerular injury remains unclear. In this study, membranous nephropathy datasets (GSE115857, GSE200828) were retrieved from GEO.

Of utmost concern are issues of power dynamics leading to incidents of sexual abuse. These issues underscore the importance of understanding therapeutic dynamics within the context of psychedelic-assisted therapy.

This review synthesizes current research on domestic violence and sexual assault, focusing on their short-term and long-term effects on family dynamics, particularly on the development and well-being of children and adolescents. The article employs a curated body of literature, including surveys, reviews, program evaluations, and international health reports, to elucidate the direct and collateral damage caused by such trauma within families. The review critically examines the intersecting consequences of abuse, including immediate psychological distress and long-term socio-economic and educational disruptions for affected youths.

Purpose: Previous studies have reported that infection-induced fever is associated with improved breast cancer prognosis, potentially through the modulation of cytokines. However, the key cytokines and the underlying mechanisms through which fever exerts its anti-tumor effects remain unclear.
Patients And Methods: A total of 794 breast cancer patients were recruited between 2008 and 2017, with follow-up extending until October 31st, 2023.

Background: Intrauterine exposure to gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) poses significant risks to fetal development and future metabolic health. Despite its clinical importance, the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in fetoplacental vascular endothelial cell (VEC) programming in the context of GDM remains elusive. This study aims to identify signature miRNA genes involved in this process using bioinformatics analysis via multiple algorithms.
