Cancer cells within tumors exhibit a wide range of phenotypic states driven by non-genetic mechanisms in addition to extensively studied genetic alterations. Conversions among cancer cell states can result in intratumoral heterogeneity which contributes to metastasis and development of drug resistance. However, mechanisms underlying the initiation and/or maintenance of such phenotypic plasticity are poorly understood.

Resource availability should have consequences for life-history functions and trade-offs among them because it influences the amounts of resources allocated to different functions. Nutritional status during a key developmental window (sexual maturation) may also have an important impact on life-history functions and such trade-offs. However, less is known about whether and how they interact to influence the resource allocation of individuals.

Postoperative disorders of consciousness can arise from various factors, making diagnosis challenging. This report presents a case of a disorder of consciousness that occurred after awakening from general anesthesia, in which various examinations including computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were conducted, but the cause could not be identified. A man in his 60s with a history of hypertension and cerebral hemorrhage underwent revision total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia for a left periprosthetic hip fracture.

Pharmacological inhibition of Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin 9 (PCSK9) have been firmly established to be an effective approach to reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and cardiovascular events. Subcutaneous administration of monoclonal antibodies (evolocumab and alirocumab) every 2 or 4 weeks determined a 60 % reduction of LDL cholesterol levels, while the GalNac-siRNA anti PCSK9 (inclisiran) provided an effective lipid lowering activity (-50 %) after an initial subcutaneous dose, repeated after 3 months and followed by a maintenance dose every 6 months. Although these two approaches have the potentiality to bring the majority of patients at high and very-high cardiovascular risk to the appropriate LDL cholesterol targets, their cost and subcutaneous administration represent a strong limitation for their large-scale use.

Historically, forensic science results have been admitted in court, with minimal scrutiny regarding their scientific validity. However, following the National Academy of Sciences (NAS, 2009) report, the forensic community has undergone a significant transformation. This shift has demonstrated that forensic scientists and laboratories want to ensure the scientific rigor and quality of their results, but that they are often uncertain where to begin when addressing concerns about error and bias.
