Complex posttraumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) is characterized in the by affect dysregulation, negative self-concept, and relationship impairments, symptoms also presented in borderline personality disorder (BPD). Some research shows CPTSD as a distinct disorder, others as a subgroup or a replacement for BPD. No review currently amalgamates the findings on whether CPTSD presents too similarly to BPD to be a standalone disorder. This article systematically reviewed similarities and differences in symptom presentations of the two disorders. Six databases were searched (PsycINFO, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycEXTRA, and Open Access Theses and Dissertations) and identified papers were summarized narratively. The majority of studies found distinct profiles for CPTSD and BPD. One study found no differences between the constructs; however, this used a population without severe trauma. CPTSD and BPD can present comorbidly, these individuals will have likely experienced earlier and more frequent interpersonal trauma and display greater functional impairment.

The aim of the study was to analyze differences in the concentration of total arsenic (As) and As(III) in urine depending on the sex of mixed-breed dogs. Therefore, a research hypothesis was put forward that sex is a variable determining the degree and efficiency of urinary arsenic excretion. Two study groups were established: female (group 1) and male (group 2) mixed-breed dogs of similar body weight (9-13 kg) and aged 8-11 years.

Introduction: The dentoskeletal effects of clear aligner treatment (CAT) with Invisalign vs temporary skeletal anchorage device-anchored Sydney intrusion spring (SIS) were compared in consecutively treated growing patients with anterior open bite using cone-beam computed tomography scans.
Methods: Fifteen adolescents treated exclusively with Invisalign, and 14 with SIS (first-phase treatment) were assessed retrospectively. Rigid-wise, voxel-based registration of pretreatment and posttreatment cone-beam computed tomography scans were performed using the anterior cranial base, maxillary plane, and mandibular body as reference regions.

Current clinical practice guidelines were established by several organizations to guide the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension in men and women in a similar manner despite data demonstrating differences in underlying mechanisms. Few publications have provided a contemporary and comprehensive review focused on characteristics of hypertension that are unique to women across their life spectrum. We performed a computerized search using PubMed, OVID, EMBASE, and Cochrane library databases between 1995 and 2023 that highlighted relevant clinical studies, challenges to the management of hypertension in women, and multidisciplinary approaches to hypertension control in women, including issues unique to racial and ethnic minority groups.

Background: The Japanese quail () is a small migratory bird whose main habitats are located in East Asia, Russia, China, Japan, Korea, and India. The Japanese quail was first introduced into the Iraqi research sector in the early 1980s. This investigation aimed to identify the genetic divergence between the available genetic lines of the Japanese quail in Iraq as a first step to conducting further conservation and breeding, benefiting from studying the genetic diversity related to productivity, adaptation, and immune susceptibility.

Background: Cardiac computed tomography imaging with contrast is being used increasingly to image left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) devices. Contrast flow across a device, also known as a transfabric leak (TFL), may indicate a lack of complete LAAO-device endothelialization. The data on the rate, predictors, and clinical events associated with TFL are limited.
