Animal models of FAS have allowed researchers to study the mechanisms behind alcohol's deleterious effects on fetal development. Such models have helped verify hypotheses based on studies of children with FAS and uncover new features of FAS not evident in humans.

RNA modifications are conserved chemical features found in all domains of life and across diverse RNA biotypes, shaping gene expression profiles and enabling rapid responses to environmental changes. Their broad chemical diversity and dynamic nature pose significant challenges for studying them comprehensively. These limitations can now be addressed through direct RNA nanopore sequencing (DRS), which allows simultaneous identification of diverse RNA modification types at single-molecule and single-nucleotide resolution.

The novel amyloid-beta, p-Tau, and neurofilament light chain (ATN) classification scheme has become a promising system for clinically detecting and diagnosing Alzheimer's disease (AD). In addition to its utility in Alzheimer's diagnosis and treatment, the ATN framework may also have clinical relevance in identifying non-Alzheimer's pathologies. In this study conducted at Broadlawns Geriatric and Memory Center, 92 amyloid-negative profiles out of 182 patients with an ATN framework were categorized into subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), non-amnestic mild cognitive impairment (non-amnestic MCI), amnestic MCI, Alzheimer's dementia, vascular dementia, mixed dementia, unspecified dementia, or other memory changes based on diagnoses written in the chart.

The French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health & Safety (Anses) has set up a multidisciplinary working group (WG) to develop an innovative One Health approach for the monitoring and evaluation of an integrated vector management system (IVMS) on a territorial scale. Four existing evaluation guidelines and methods have been combined into a semi-quantitative evaluation approach that takes into account all the dimensions of an integrated process. We propose a set of 34 criteria divided into three sections (objectives and management, implementation, integration) that correspond to the main functional components of an IVMS.

Background: Achilles tendinopathy (AT) management can be difficult, given the paucity of effective treatment options and the degenerative nature of the condition. Innovative therapies for Achilles tendinopathy are therefore direly needed. New therapeutic developments predominantly begin with preclinical animal and in vitro studies to understand the effects at the molecular level and to evaluate toxicity.

Background: The aim of the study is to identify the potential risk factors for postoperative AKI in hip fracture patients.
Design And Methods: Using our local neck of femur (NOF) registration data, patient details were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Electronic records of patients were assessed retrospectively, including blood results, radiological investigations, clinical documentation, and drug charts.
