Small mammals and associated infections in China: a systematic review and spatial modelling analysis.

Background: As natural reservoirs of diverse pathogens, small mammals are considered a key interface for guarding public health due to their wide geographic distribution, high density and frequent interaction with humans.

Methods: All formally recorded natural occurrences of small mammals (Order: Rodentia, Eulipotyphla, Lagomorpha, and Scandentia) and their associated microbial infections in China were searched in the English and Chinese literature spanning from 1950 to 2021 and geolocated. Machine learning models were applied to determine ecological drivers for the distributions of 45 major small mammal species and two common rodent-borne diseases (RBDs), and model-predicted potential risk locations were mapped.

Epidemiology of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II According to the Register of the Russian Federation.

Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the epidemiological, clinical, and molecular data of mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II) patients and their outcomes using the national registry of patients in the Russian Federation (RF). Materials and Methods: In the retrospective cohort study, the authors included data from the Russian national registry of MPS II. Results: The prevalence of MPS II in RF is 0.

Identification and Analysis of , , , and Gene Families in .

(β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthases II), (fatty acid thioesterases), (stearoyl-ACP desaturase), and (fatty acid desaturases) are the vital gene families involved in fatty acid (FA) synthesis in L. However, information on the number and location of these genes and which ones are key to the formation of FAs in fruit seeds and pulp was not complete. Our study aimed to solve this issue using the available genomic sequences and transcriptome data that we obtained.

Venous Thromboembolism at Low Risk of Recurrence in Young Women: Stress and Violence Associated with Recurrence. An International Case-Control Study.

Background:  In young women with venous thromboembolism (VTE) related to weak transient risk factors, it remains unknown whether stress levels and intimate partner violence (IPV) are associated with recurrence. The VTE-WEAK study aims to investigate the association between perceived stress and IPV with a recurrence of VTE in women with a first episode of VTE due to combined oral contraceptives, pregnancy-puerperium, minor trauma/fracture, brief surgery, infection or brief immobility, and not using antithrombotic prophylaxis.

Material And Methods:  We performed a multicenter, international, observational, retrospective study on women referred for thrombophilia screening who were subsequently monitored.

Profile of miRNAs induced during sheep fat tail development and roles of four key miRNAs in proliferation and differentiation of sheep preadipocytes.

Background: The fat tail of sheep is an adaptive trait that facilitates their adaptation to harsh natural environments. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated to play crucial roles in the regulation of tail fat deposition.

Methods: In this study, miRNA-Seq was employed to investigate the expression profiles of miRNAs during different developmental stages of sheep fat tails and elucidate the functions of differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs).

[Clinical and epidemiological characteristics of myasthenia in the Altai region].

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of myasthenia gravis (MG) in the Altai region (AR).

Material And Methods: One hundred and twenty-two patients with a verified diagnosis of MG, living in the AR, took part in the study. To collect data, a questionnaire was developed, the data of which formed the basis for the study.

Nucleophilicity of the Nitrile N Atom Whose Lone Pair Is Blocked by Metal Coordination. The π-Hole Interaction between an Arene Carbon and the Metal-Bound Nitrile Nitrogen.

Cocrystallization of CuI with NCNMe in the presence of substituted perfluoroarenes─iodoperfluorobenzene (IFB), 4,4'-diiodoperfluorobiphenyl (4,4'-FIBP), and 4-bromoperfluorobenzonitrile (4-BrFBN)─led to the formation of three types of adducts ·2(IFB), ·4,4'FIBP, and ·4-BrFBN ( is CuI(NCNMe)), all studied by X-ray crystallography. In these cocrystals, the coordinated nitrile N atom (whose electron pair is engaged in metal coordination) still acts as an electron donor, forming π-hole interactions, specifically, π-hole···N, with the perfluoroarenes. These interactions were examined in the context of their occurrence alongside other interactions involving C atoms of the electron-deficient aromatic rings and nucleophilic atoms of the copper cluster.
