Microbiota Associated With Species (Nemertea, Hoplonemertea, Monostilifera, Ototyphlonemertidae) Reveal Evidence of Phylosymbiosis.

Phylosymbiosis, the association between the phylogenetic relatedness of hosts and the composition of their microbial communities, is a widespread phenomenon in diverse animal taxa. However, the generality of the existence of such a pattern has been questioned in many animals across the tree of life, including small-sized aquatic invertebrates. This study aims to investigate the microbial communities associated with poorly known marine interstitial nemerteans to uncover their microbiota diversity and assess the occurrence of phylosymbiosis.

Perceptual Response Training for Reduction of Injury Risk Among High School Girls' Soccer Players.

Neural processes involved in visual detection, decision-making, and motor plan execution are believed to play a key role in the avoidance of sport-related injuries, but very little evidence exists to guide the development of training activities for the optimization of brain function. Immersive virtual reality provides a means to precisely measure the amount of time that elapses from visual stimulus presentation to the initiation of a motor response (i.e.

A case study of hypophosphatasia: An underdiagnosed bone disorder characterized by low alkaline phosphatase.

Hypophosphatasia (HPP) is a rare genetic metabolic bone disorder that is underdiagnosed. Although there are many forms of this disease, based on age of onset, symptoms, and severity, HPP is characterized by low serum alkaline phosphatase levels, bone fractures, and dental complications. Diagnosis of HPP is made from clinical, laboratory, and radiologic findings.

Polyvictimization and academic performance among college students: Examining differences across sexual and gender identity.

The current study examines the relationship between polyvictimization and academic performance in college across gender and sexual identity. Participants were from the Spring 2019 administration of the American College Health Association's National College Health Assessment-II. Multinomial logistic regression models and negative binomial regression models with and without interaction terms were used to explore if gender and sexual identity are related to academic performance, and if they are differentially related to academic performance when experiencing polyvictimization.

The Role of Perpetrator Attractiveness and Relationship Dynamics on Perceptions of Adolescent Sexual Grooming.

Sexual grooming, exacerbated by increased internet and social media usage , is a growing concern. Past researchers have found differences in perceptions of sexual grooming based on gender-pairing, perpetrator attractiveness, as well as perpetrator and victim age and gender. Our study extends this research by exploring how the attractiveness of the perpetrator and their relationship to the victim - specifically, whether they are a teacher, religious leader, or family friend - affects perceived grooming severity and recommended legal response.

Here, we establish a new species of this family as Boninia panamensis sp. nov.

Acceptability of Pilot School-based Food Pantries Compared With Weekend Feeding BackPack Programs Among Food Pantry Clients in Rural Tennessee: A Mixed-Methods Approach.

Objective: To explore the client acceptability and perceived impact of pilot school-based food pantries (SBFPs) and compare client preference between SBFPs and BackPack programs (locally termed Sack Pack) in 3 rural Tennessee elementary schools.

Methods: A mixed-method design, including cross-sectional surveys (n = 25) and semistructured interviews (n = 11), was used to assess and compare program acceptability.

Results: Client satisfaction was uniformly positive for both programs; however, a majority preferred the food quantity (84%), nutritional value (76%), variety (68%), quality (68%), and convenience (64%) of SBFPs.

Complementing aculiferan mitogenomics: comparative characterization of mitochondrial genomes of Solenogastres (Mollusca, Aplacophora).

Background: With the advances in high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatic pipelines, mitochondrial genomes have become increasingly popular for phylogenetic analyses across different clades of invertebrates. Despite the vast rise in available mitogenomic datasets of molluscs, one class of aplacophoran molluscs - Solenogastres (or Neomeniomorpha) - is still neglected.

Results: Here, we present six new mitochondrial genomes from five families of Solenogastres (Amphimeniidae, Gymnomeniidae, Proneomeniidae, Pruvotinidae, Simrothiellidae), including the first complete mitogenomes, thereby now representing three of the four traditional orders.

Restful Rehabilitation: Sleep's Essential Role in Occupational Therapy Education, Intervention, and Research.

All humans have the occupational right to sleep; therefore, occupational therapy practitioners must prioritize sleep with their clients. In this column, we identify ways to incorporate sleep health into the education and training of occupational therapy practitioners. This starts with identifying entry-level and continuing education opportunities to proclaim sleep as an occupation and a basic biological need.

Behavioral Risk Profiles of Stroke Survivors Among US Adults: Geographic Differences Between Stroke Belt and Non-Stroke Belt States.

Introduction: Stroke, a leading cause of illness, death, and long-term disability in the US, presents with significant disparities across the country, most notably in southeastern states comprising the "Stroke Belt." This study intended to identify differences between Stroke Belt states (SBS) and non-Stroke Belt states (NSBS) in terms of prevalence of stroke, sociodemographic and behavioral risk factors, and health-related quality of life (HRQOL).

Methods: We analyzed data from the 2019 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System to compare demographic characteristics, risk factors, physical activity adherence, functional independence, and HRQOL among stroke survivors in SBS and NSBS.

Neuroticism Is Prospectively Associated With 30-Month Changes in Broadband Internalizing Symptoms, but Not Narrowband Positive Affect or Anxious Arousal, in Emerging Adulthood.

Elevated levels of Neuroticism/Negative Emotionality (N/NE) and, less consistently, lower levels of Extraversion/Positive Emotionality (E/PE) confer risk for pathological depression and anxiety. To date, most prospective-longitudinal research has narrowly focused on traditional diagnostic categories, creating uncertainty about the precise nature of these prospective associations. Adopting an explicitly hierarchical-dimensional approach, we examined the association between baseline variation in personality and longitudinal changes in broad and narrow internalizing-symptom dimensions in 234 emerging adults followed for 2.

Cross-cultural validation of the BFOE model: Best practices and future directions for psychometric evaluation of the Fear of positive evaluation scale - Insights from a Dutch translation.

The Bivalent Fear of Evaluation (BFOE) model suggests that Social Anxiety Disorder is not only characterized by fear of negative evaluation (FNE), but also fear of positive evaluation (FPE). While FNE has been firmly established, research of the latter is accumulating. To evaluate the role of the BFOE Model, and particularly FPE, validated measures such as the Fear of Positive Evaluation Scale (FPES) are pivotal.

Microplastics in ecosystems: Critical review of occurrence, distribution, toxicity, fate, transport, and advances in experimental and computational studies in surface and subsurface water.

Microplastics (MPs), particles under 5 mm, pervade water, soil, sediment, and air due to increased plastic production and improper disposal, posing global environmental and health risks. Examining their distribution, quantities, fate, and transport is crucial for effective management. Several studies have explored MPs' sources, distribution, transport, and biological impacts, primarily focusing on the marine environment.

Hospitals and Superutilization.

A small percentage of patients consume most of the health services in the US. These cases of superutilization affect hospitals, but little is known about what it is, the impact on hospitals, or how hospitals can identify potential cases of superutilization. We conducted exploratory research using the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) datasets for 2019 to examine superutilization as it relates to hospitals.

CONNECTING MASS-ACTION MODELS AND NETWORK MODELS FOR INFECTIOUS DISEASES.

Infectious disease modeling is used to forecast epidemics and assess the effectiveness of intervention strategies. Although the core assumption of mass-action models of homogeneously mixed population is often implausible, they are nevertheless routinely used in studying epidemics and provide useful insights. Network models can account for the heterogeneous mixing of populations, which is especially important for studying sexually transmitted diseases.

Hip Strength, Change of Direction, and Falls in Recreational Pickleball Players.

Background: While a high incidence of pickleball-related falls is reported, little is known regarding factors differentiating persons with and without a fall history during play.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine differences between recreational pickleball players who fell while playing and those who did not. Additional aims were to determine reasons for falling and to investigate associations among assessed factors.

Applied Electric Field Effects on Diffusivity and Electrical Double-Layer Thickness.

This study utilizes molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and continuum frameworks to explore electroosmotic flow (EOF) in nanoconfined aqueous electrolytes, offering a promising alternative to conventional micro-/nanofluidic systems. Although osmotic behavior in these environments is deeply linked to local fluid properties and interfacial dynamics between the fluid and electrolyte solutions, achieving a complete molecular-level understanding has remained challenging. The findings establish a linear relationship between electric field strength and fluid velocity, uncovering two distinct transport regimes separated by a critical threshold, with a markedly intensified flow in the second regime.

Sexual selection and life history interact to influence the evolution of paternal care.

Parental care is essential to offspring survival in many species. Understanding why males of some species provide care, whereas others do not, has received substantial attention. Previous research has found that sexual selection can favor paternal care, yet we still do not fully understand why sexual selection favors male care in some species but not others.
