Reassessing the evolutionary relationships of tropical wandering spiders using phylogenomics: A UCE-based phylogeny of Ctenidae (Araneae) with the discovery of a new lycosoid family.

Mol Phylogenet Evol

Tropical wandering spiders (Ctenidae) are a diverse family of cursorial predators whose species richness peaks in the tropics. The phylogeny of Ctenidae has been examined using morphology and Sanger-based sequencing data, but these studies have been limited by taxon sampling and have often recovered low branch support for many intrafamilial phylogenetic relationships. Herein, we present the most extensive phylogenetic sampling of this family using genome-scale data, leveraging museum collections of all ctenid subfamilies from across the world.

Background: Sibling sexual abuse (SSA) is the most common form of intra-familial child sexual abuse yet is largely understudied.

Objective: To systematically review the literature on risk and protective factors, disclosure patterns and responses to disclosure, and therapeutic or other responses to cases of sibling sexual abuse.

Methods: In line with PRISMA guidelines, six key databases were searched along with a systematic search of key grey literature sources.

Stress-sensitivity (SS) is considered a psychobiological trait possibly resulting from the interaction of genetic and environmental factors (GxE). This study examined whether the interaction of SS-related genetic markers with interview-based dimensions of childhood adversity predicted longitudinal trajectories of low versus high SS. Participants were nonclinically-ascertained young adults comprising normative and elevated scores on schizotypy.

The challenges of cascade genetic testing in hereditary cancer syndromes: A few ethical considerations.

Tumori

November 2024

U.O. Oncologia Medica 2, IRCCS Ospedale Policlinico San Martino, Genova, Italy.

Progress in the discovery and understanding of cancer susceptibility genes and ever-cheaper genomic technologies are generating precious opportunities to optimize the identification of individuals with a hereditary cancer predisposition.Any such effort will have a more significant impact if it prioritizes those most at risk of developing cancer. This premise is central to cascade genetic testing, in which healthcare professionals encourage cancer patients carrying a predisposing gene variant to discuss the implications of their test results with their at-risk relatives so that, ideally, all the at-risk individuals in that family have the option to seek genetic counseling and testing in turn.
