Continuous measures of arm movement activity and basal body temperature were obtained on one female over a total of 149 days, beginning 3 months subsequent to this female's bilateral oophorectomy. Prior to the oophorectomy the subject had been menstruating regularly, and earlier data on this subject had indicated a low-order positive correlation between temperature and activity. The present results found no such correlation, lending support to the notion that at least one index of bodily activity is related to ovarian functioning.

Background: One of the key functions of human skin is to provide a barrier, protecting the body from the surrounding environment and maintaining homeostasis of the internal environment. A mature, stratified epidermis is critical to achieve skin barrier function and is particularly important when producing skin grafts in vitro for wound treatment. For decades epidermal stratification has been achieved in vitro by culturing keratinocytes at an air-liquid interface, triggering proliferating basal keratinocytes to differentiate and form all epidermal layers.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is associated with cardiometabolic risk. Although studies have shown that estradiol positively contributes to energy metabolism via estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), its role specifically in the liver is not defined. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of ERα overexpression, specifically in the liver in mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD).

Introduction: To explore the effects of rosemary extract (RE) and its residue (RR) on the production, immune performance, and gut microbiota of geese.
Methods: We treat 28-day-old Sichuan white geese ( = 180) with three diets: (1) basal diet (control), (2) basal diet supplemented with 0.02% RE, and (3) basal diet supplemented with 15% RR for 42 days.

Background: Family-based selective breeding programs typically employ both between-family and within-family selection in aquaculture. However, these programs may exhibit a reduced genetic gain in the presence of a genotype by environment interactions (G × E) when employing biosecurity-based breeding schemes (BS), compared to non-biosecurity-based breeding schemes (NBS). Fortunately, genomic selection shows promise in improving genetic gain by taking within-family variance into account.

Background: Diabetes is prevalent in older adults, and machine learning algorithms could help predict diabetes in this population.
Objective: This study determined diabetes risk factors among older adults aged ≥60 years using machine learning algorithms and selected an optimized prediction model.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 3084 older adults aged ≥60 years in Seoul from January to November 2023.
