This study examines gender representation and in-state retention rates of practicing residency graduates from Pennsylvania State University (PSU), as well as at the national level. PSU and national data were collected from a PSU handbook and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC), respectively. There were significant differences between male and female representation both at PSU and at the national level. Furthermore, there was a significant difference between male and female retention rates nationally. This study demonstrates a true gender discrepancy for graduates from PSU and at the national level. Moving forward, investigating potential causes of this discrepancy may help minimize gender differences.

An alginate lyase (FsAly7) from sp. was engineered by directed evolution to improve its optimum temperature and thermostability. The optimum temperature of the positive mutant mFsAly7 (FsAly7-Ser43Pro) was increased by 5 °C, and the thermal inactivation half-lives at 40 and 45 °C were 4.

Background And Aims: The laxative lubiprostone has been shown to decrease intestinal permeability. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of lubiprostone administered for 48 weeks in patients with metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).
Approach And Results: A randomised placebo-controlled trial was conducted in a specialised MASLD outpatient clinic at the National Hepatology and Tropical Medicine Research Institute, Cairo, Egypt.

The Brownstripe Snapper, (Quoy and Gaimard, 1824) is a commercially important snapper extensively caught in Malaysia. We examined genetic diversity, population connectivity, and historical demographics of the , off the eastern coast of peninsular Malaysia based on an 817 bp region of the mtDNA control region sequences. Maximum likelihood gene trees demonstrated that the populations under study had limited structuring and formed a single panmictic population that lacks support for internal clades.

As the catalytic subunit of the Elongator complex, Elongator protein 3 (Elp3) plays a crucial role in multiple physiological processes, including growth, development and immune responses. Previous studies on Elp3 have focused on Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Homo sapiens (human) or Mus musculus (mouse), whereas there are few reports on Elp3 in agricultural pests. Here, the role of TcElp3 in reproduction in the red flour beetle, Tribolium castaneum, was investigated, and the underlying mechanisms were explored.
