To assess the diagnostic value of circ-ANAPC7 expression levels in MDS and its risk stratification. This is a retrospective observational study. This study enrolled 125 patients diagnosed with MDS and divided them into five groups according to IPSS-R (very high group, 25; high group, 25; intermediate group, 25; low group, 25; and very low group, 25), and 25 patients with IDA were studied as control group from our bone marrow cell bank. Bone marrow cell were used as material in this study to measure the expression level of circ-ANAPC7 by qRT-PCR. An evaluation of diagnostic value was conducted using ROC curves. Circ-ANAPC7 expression levels were 5.623 ± 4.483, 28.396 ± 12.938, 91.867 ± 37.010, 202.525 ± 54.911, 337.633 ± 86.013, and 502.269 ± 98.410 from the control group to the very high group, respectively ( < 0.05). Circ-ANAPC7 expression was gradually upregulated with the risk stratification of MDS. The AUCs of circ-ANAPC7 were 0.973, 0.996, 0.951, 0.920, and 0.907 in the control group/very low group, very low group/low group, low group/intermediate group, intermediate group/high group, and high group/very high group, respectively. In this study, the expression level of circ-ANAPC7 was found to be a promising biomarker for MDS. It may be added to the scoring system to better identify risk groups.

The European pond turtle (Emys orbicularis) is a wide-ranging, long-living freshwater species with low reproductive success, mainly due to high predation pressure. We studied how habitat variables and predator communities in near-natural marshes affect the survival of turtle eggs and hatchlings. We followed the survival of artificial turtle nests placed in marshes along Lake Balaton (Hungary) in May and June as well as hatchlings (dummies) exposed in September.

The relationship between vitamin C nutritional status and inflammation has garnered increasing attention, but studies in younger populations are limited. This study aimed to investigate the association between serum vitamin C and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in children and adolescents. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

While numerous studies have established correlations between parasite load and negative effects on their hosts, establishing causality is more challenging because parasites can directly compromise host condition and survival or simply opportunistically thrive on an already weakened host. Here, we evaluated whether Ixodes uriae, a widespread seabird tick, can cause a decrease in growth parameters (body mass, bill length and growth rates) and survival of chicks of a colonially seabird, the black-browed albatross (Thalassarche melanophris) breeding on New Island (West Falkland). To investigate this, we daily removed the ticks from 28 randomly selected chicks during their first 14 days of life (treated chicks) and compared their growth and survival with 49 chicks of a control group.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Revised Indebtedness Scale (IS-R-C) in mainland China. A total of 1057 university students participated in this study using a two-wave whole-group sampling method. Sample 1, consisting of 537 participants, was used for item analysis and exploratory factor analysis (EFA) of the Revised Indebtedness Scale (IS-R).

Cowpea is a seed legume, important for food and nutritional security in Africa's arid and semi-arid zones. Despite its importance, cowpea is experiencing a loss of genetic diversity due to climate change. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the genetic variability of 33 cowpea mutant collections using 20 SSR and 13 ISSR markers.
