Intestinal glucose uptake was measured in normal and dwarf chickens from lines selected fro high and low body weight. Jejunal tissue rings were excised from 9-week-old chicks and incubated in a medium containing .002 M glucose. Significantly more glucose (micromoles per gram dry tissue weight) was absorbed by tissues from the low weight line when compared to tissues from the high weight line. The dwarf gene, dw, had no effect on glucose Uptake.

Recent research has revealed the widespread effects of emotion on cognitive functions and memory. However, the influence of emotional valence on verbal short-term memory remains largely unexplored, especially in children. This study measured the effect of emotional valence on word immediate serial recall in 4-6-year-old French children ( = 124).

Na superionic conductor (NASICON)-structure NaMnV(PO) (NVMP) electrode materials reveal highly attractive application prospects due to ultrahigh energy density originating from two-electron reactions. Nevertheless, NVMP also encounters challenges with its poor electronic conductivity, Mn dissolution, and Jahn-Teller distortion. To address this issue, utilizing N-doped carbon layers and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for dual encapsulation enhances the material's electronic conductivity, creating an effective electron transport network that promotes the rapid diffusion and storage of Na.

Division of Geriatrics, School of Medicine, University of California San Francisco.
Importance: The Walter Index is a widely used prognostic tool for assessing 12-month mortality risk among hospitalized older adults. Developed in the US in 2001, its accuracy in contemporary non-US contexts is unclear.
Objective: To evaluate the external validity of the Walter Index in predicting posthospitalization mortality risk in Brazilian older adult inpatients.
Facility Medicaid Payer Burden and Nonelective Admission for Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia.
JAMA Surg

Department of Surgery, State University of New York, Downstate Health Sciences University, Brooklyn.
Importance: Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) is a major public health issue that requires considerable human and physical resources to provide optimal patient care. It is essential to characterize the disease severity and resource needs of patients with CLTI presenting to facilities of varying resource capacities.
Objective: To investigate the association between facility-level Medicaid payer proportions and the incidence of nonelective admissions among patients admitted for CLTI.
