This controlled comparison study evaluated objective and subjective cognitive function and their relationships with patient-reported symptoms (depression, fatigue, insomnia) in patients receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and non-cancer controls. Patients with CML in chronic phase treated with the same oral TKI for ≥6 months ( = 90) and non-cancer controls ( = 87) completed a neurocognitive battery and self-report measures. Patients demonstrated worse overall neuropsychological performance = .05) and verbal memory ( = .02) compared to controls. Patients were not more likely to meet criteria for impaired cognitive performance compared to controls (>.26). Patients reported worse subjective global and domain-specific cognitive complaints and less satisfaction with cognitive function compared to controls (s < .05). Patients also reported greater fatigue and insomnia symptoms (s < .001). In both groups, greater fatigue, insomnia, and depressive symptoms were associated with worse subjective cognition (s < .01). Longitudinal studies are needed to examine changes in cognitive function in patients before and during TKI treatment.

The harlequin ladybird, , is a predatory beetle used globally to control pests such as aphids and scale insects. Originating from East Asia, this species has become highly invasive since its introduction in the late 19th century to Europe and North America, posing a threat to local biodiversity. Intraguild predation is hypothesized to drive the success of this invasive species, but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown.

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from bacteria to insects is widely reported and often associated with the adaptation and diversification of insects. However, compelling evidence demonstrating how HGT-conferred metabolic adjustments enable species to adapt to surrounding environment remains scarce. Dietary specialization is an important ecological strategy adopted by animals to reduce inter- and intraspecific competition for limited resources.

Collaborative management partnerships (CMPs) between state wildlife authorities and nonprofit conservation organizations to manage protected areas (PAs) have been used increasingly across Sub-Saharan Africa since the 2000s. They aim to attract funding, build capacity, and increase the environmental effectiveness of PAs. Our study documents the rise of CMPs, examines their current extent, and measures their effectiveness in protecting habitats.

is a dominant member of the human gut microbiome and produces short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). These promote immune system function and inhibit inflammation, making this microbe important for human health. Lactate is a primary source of gut SCFAs but its utilization by has not been explored.

A single-component flavin-dependent halogenase, AetF, has emerged as an attractive biocatalyst for catalyzing halogenation. However, its flavin chemistry remains unexplored and cannot be predicted due to its uniqueness in sequence and structure compared to other flavin-dependent monooxygenases. Here, we investigated the flavin reactions of AetF using transient kinetics.
