A middle repetitive sequence NPR18 was isolated from Nicotiana plumbaginifolia nuclear genome [8]. Sequences homologous to the repeat are dispersed through genomes of several Nicotiana species. Computer-assisted data analysis of NPR18 primary sequence reveals several features attributed to mobile genetic elements: an AT content higher than average for nuclear DNA of genus Nicotiana plants; a number of direct and inverted repeats. Some of the repeats displayed homology to the terminal and subterminal repeats of Ac/Ds-like plant elements.

Risk of acute kidney injury following repeated contrast exposure in trauma patients.
Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
Division of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, Department of Surgery, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, No. 5, Fuxing St., Guishan Dist., Taoyuan City, 333, Taiwan.
Purpose: This study investigates the risk of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) in trauma patients, focusing on the impact of cumulative contrast medium doses.
Methods: A retrospective review was conducted at a level 1 trauma center (2019-2021). The study included patients who underwent intravascular contrast-enhanced examinations for torso trauma within 7 days post-injury.
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae have better clinical outcomes than classical Klebsiella pneumoniae for lower respiratory tract infection patients.

Background: The clinical outcomes and microbiological features of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) caused by hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) and classical Klebsiella pneumoniae (cKp) have not been well understood.
Methods: This study collected 287 non-repetitive Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from 287 LRTI patients. All these strains underwent annotation for resistance and virulence factors, with 141 strains undergoing mouse infection experiments to assess their virulence.
Physical exercise has been demonstrated to effectively mitigate repetitive behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but the underlying dynamic brain network mechanisms are poorly understood. The triple network model consists of three brain networks that jointly regulate cognitive and emotional processes and is considered to be the core network underlying the aberrant manifestations of ASD. This study investigated whether a mini-basketball training program (MBTP) could alter repetitive behaviors and the dynamic connectivity of the triple network.

Brain Behav
January 2025
Technion Faculty of Medicine, Haifa, Israel.
Objective: Medical personnel show difficulty in differentiating psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) from epileptic seizures (ES). The purpose of this study was to conduct an initial feasibility assessment of the global dynamic impression (GDI) principle and to evaluate its effectiveness in enabling the diagnosis of epileptic versus psychogenic seizures using video footage of events, even by untrained personnel METHODS: We based this study on video footage showing five videos of PNES and five ES videos. We asked physicians and nurses from the emergency department, internal medicine department, neurology department, and medical students to classify the videos before and after learning the GDI principle.

To assess the association between possible sarcopenia and the risk for frailty in middle-aged and elderly adults in China. A prospective cohort study design was used in this study. Data were from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study during 2011-2018 and the baseline data in 2011, the follow up was conducted in 2013, 2015 and 2018, respectively.
