Background: Musculoskeletal diseases are a major contributor to global human disability, but research in this area of medicine contends with chronic underfunding in the United States, receiving <2% of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) budget. The Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation (OREF) serves as a vital nongovernmental organization, providing essential support for orthopaedic research. This study investigated the translation of various OREF grants into successful extramural federal funding discerning the clinician demographics and OREF award characteristics associated with increased chances of securing federal grants.

Background: Early life stress exposure in preterm infants may alter DNA methylation of NR3C1 and HSD11B2, disrupting neurobehaviors needed for oral feeding (PO) skill development.
Purpose: To (1) examine the feasibility of the study protocol; (2) describe early life stress, DNA methylation of NR3C1 and HSD11B2, and PO skill development; and (3) explore the association between DNA methylation of NR3C1 and HSD11B2 and infant characteristics, early life stress, and PO skill development.
Method: We employed a longitudinal descriptive pilot study (N = 10).

Background: Whether diabetic retinopathy (DR) can predict kidney disease progression in individuals with diabetes remains unclear. Furthermore, there are only a limited number of studies investigating the association between DR and kidney outcomes classified according to baseline kidney function and albuminuria status. Here, we examined the association of DR with kidney disease progression in individuals with type 2 diabetes.
