Blood Pressure Outcomes in NICU-Admitted Infants with Neonatal Hypertension: A Pediatric Nephrology Research Consortium Study.

Objective: To describe the blood pressure outcomes of infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) with idiopathic (nonsecondary) hypertension (HTN) who were discharged on antihypertensive therapy.

Study Design: Retrospective, multicenter study of 14 centers within the Pediatric Nephrology Research Consortium. We included all infants with a diagnosis of idiopathic HTN discharged from the NICU on antihypertensive treatment.

Associations between mothers' and fathers' depression and anxiety prior to birth and infant temperament trajectories over the first year of life: Evidence from diagnoses and symptom severity.

Background: Developmental shifts in infant temperament predict distal outcomes including emerging symptoms of psychopathology in childhood. Thus, it is critical to gain insight into factors that shape these developmental shifts. Although parental depression and anxiety represent strong predictors of infant temperament in cross-sectional research, few studies have examined how these factors influence temperament trajectories across infancy.

Neural network for autonomous segmentation and volumetric assessment of clot and edema in acute and subacute intracerebral hemorrhages.

Introduction: Minimally-invasive surgical techniques for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) evacuation use imaging to guide the suction, lysing and/or drainage from the hemorrhage site via various designs. A previous international surgical study has shown that reduction of hematoma volume below 15 ml is indicative of improved long term patient outcomes. The study noted a need for tools to periodically visualize remaining clot during intervention to increase the likelihood of evacuating sufficient clot volumes without endangering rebleeds.

Driving decisions after critical illness: Qualitative analysis of patient-provider reviews during ICU recovery clinic assessments.

Objective: To report patient-provider evaluations of driving status and driving safety assessments after critical illness.

Design: Qualitative secondary analysis of driving-related dialog drawn from a two-arm pilot study evaluating telemedicine delivery of Intensive Care Unit Recovery Clinic assessments.

Docking Studies on Biomolecules from Marine Microalga Skeletonema costatum Against Hemolysin Protein of Bioluminescence Disease-Causing Vibrio harveyi.

Grow-out and hatchery units of shrimps are being impacted by disease-causing bacterial pathogens and predominantly marine Vibrios. The use of chemicals for governing bacterial pathogens in the aquaculture practices is developing resistance to bacteria. Henceforth, the application of bio-therapeutic agents from marine resources for controlling pathogens is most vital to be considered.

A randomized parent-mediated physical activity intervention for autistic children.

The purpose of this study was to examine the immediate and post effects of a parent-mediated physical activity intervention on the fundamental motor skills of autistic children. We randomly assigned parent-child dyads (n = 31) of autistic children aged 4-11 years into three groups (workshop, an online, or control group). Each dyad participated in a 12-week intervention and was given adapted physical activity equipment and over 200 activities via a mobile application.

Positive affect improves a transdiagnostic model of perinatal depression symptoms.

Introduction: Accurate measurement of perinatal depression is vital. We aimed to 1) test whether a factor that measured positive affect (PA) bettered a transdiagnostic model of depression symptoms and 2) replicate the model in a second sample.

Methods: We conducted secondary analyses from two samples (n's = 657 and 142) of women in treatment at perinatal psychiatric clinics.

Antigenic responses are hallmarks of fibrotic interstitial lung diseases independent of underlying etiologies.

Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) are heterogeneous conditions that may lead to progressive fibrosis and death of affected individuals. Despite diversity in clinical manifestations, enlargement of lung-associated lymph nodes (LLN) in fibrotic ILD patients predicts worse survival. Herein, we revealed a common adaptive immune landscape in LLNs of all ILD patients, characterized by highly activated germinal centers and antigen-activated T cells including regulatory T cells (Tregs).

Microsecond Motion of the Bacterial Transporter EmrE in Lipid Bilayers.

The bacterial transporter EmrE is a homo-dimeric membrane protein that effluxes cationic polyaromatic substrates against the concentration gradient by coupling to proton transport. As the archetype of the small multidrug resistance family of transporters, EmrE structure and dynamics provide atomic insights into the mechanism of transport by this family of proteins. We recently determined high-resolution structures of EmrE in complex with a cationic substrate, tetra(4-fluorophenyl)phosphonium (F-TPP), using solid-state NMR spectroscopy and an S64V-EmrE mutant.

Associations Between Midlife Menopausal Hormone Therapy Use, Incident Diabetes, and Late Life Memory in the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study.

Background: Prior research suggests a link between menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) use, memory function, and diabetes risk. The menopausal transition is a modifiable period to enhance long-term health and cognitive outcomes, although studies have been limited by short follow-up periods precluding a solid understanding of the lasting effects of MHT use on cognition.

Objective: We examined the effects of midlife MHT use on subsequent diabetes incidence and late life memory performance in a large, same-aged, population-based cohort.

Increasing aleurone layer number and pericarp yield for elevated nutrient content in maize.

The bran is a nutritive fraction of the maize (Zea mays L.) kernel containing micronutrients, quality protein, and antioxidants beneficial for human health. Bran consists of two major components: aleurone and pericarp.

Extended regulation interface coupled to the allosteric network and disease mutations in the PP2A-B56δ holoenzyme.

An increasing number of mutations associated with devastating human diseases are diagnosed by whole-genome/exon sequencing. Recurrent missense mutations have been discovered in B56δ (encoded by ), a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), that cause intellectual disabilities (ID), macrocephaly, Parkinsonism, and a broad range of neurological symptoms. Single-particle cryo-EM structures show that the PP2A-B56δ holoenzyme possesses closed latent and open active forms.

Ice phonon spectra and Bayes inference: A gateway to a new understanding of terahertz sound propagation in water.

Understanding how molecules engage in collective motions in a liquid where a network of bonds exists has both fundamental and applied relevance. On the one hand, it can elucidate the "ordering" role of long-range correlations and inspire new avenues to control such order to implement sound manipulation. Water represents an ideal investigation case to unfold these general aspects, and, across the decades, it has been the focus of thorough scrutiny.

Endovascular revascularization of isolated internal iliac artery for symptomatic occlusive atherosclerotic disease is a viable and underused option for patients with gluteal muscle claudication.

Often confused with pseudoclaudication, gluteal muscle claudication is a difficult condition to diagnose and treat. We present the case of a 67-year-old man with a history of back and buttock claudication. He had undergone lumbosacral decompression with no relief of buttock claudication.

R3-MYB repressor Mybr97 is a candidate gene associated with the Anthocyanin3 locus and enhanced anthocyanin accumulation in maize.

Anthocyanin3 inhibits the anthocyanin and monolignol pathways in maize. Transposon-tagging, RNA-sequencing, and GST-pulldown assays determine Anthocyanin3 may be R3-MYB repressor gene Mybr97. Anthocyanins are colorful molecules receiving recent attention due to their numerous health benefits and applications as natural colorants and nutraceuticals.

Onset of collective excitations in the transverse dynamics of simple fluids.

A thorough analysis of the transverse current autocorrelation function obtained by molecular dynamics simulations of a dense Lennard-Jones fluid reveals that even such a simple system is characterized by a varied dynamical behavior with changing length scale. By using the exponential expansion theory, we provide a full account of the time correlation at wavevectors Q between the upper boundary of the hydrodynamic region and Q_{p}/2, with Q_{p} being the position of the main peak of the static structure factor. In the Q range studied, we identify and accurately locate the wavevector at which shear wave propagation starts to take place, and show clearly how this phenomenon may be represented by a damped harmonic oscillator changing, in a continuous way, from an overdamped to an underdamped condition.

Proper modulation of AHR signaling is necessary for establishing neural connectivity and oligodendrocyte precursor cell development in the embryonic zebrafish brain.

2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-[p]-dioxin (TCDD) is a persistent global pollutant that exhibits a high affinity for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), a ligand activated transcription factor. Epidemiological studies have associated AHR agonist exposure with multiple human neuropathologies. Consistent with the human data, research studies using laboratory models have linked pollutant-induced AHR activation to disruptions in learning and memory as well as motor impairments.

The Nomenclature of Chiari Malformations.

The current nomenclature of Chiari malformations includes the standard designations, Chiari 1-4, which were described by Hans Chiari in the late nineteenth century, and more recent additions, Chiari 0, 0.5, and 1.5, which emerged when the standard nomenclature failed to include important anatomical variations.

Uncertainty-informed deep learning models enable high-confidence predictions for digital histopathology.

A model's ability to express its own predictive uncertainty is an essential attribute for maintaining clinical user confidence as computational biomarkers are deployed into real-world medical settings. In the domain of cancer digital histopathology, we describe a clinically-oriented approach to uncertainty quantification for whole-slide images, estimating uncertainty using dropout and calculating thresholds on training data to establish cutoffs for low- and high-confidence predictions. We train models to identify lung adenocarcinoma vs.

Parental Perceptions of Service Access for Transition-Aged Youth With Autism During COVID-19.

Services are critical for youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), especially during the transition to adulthood. Under the best of circumstances, though, it can be difficult to access needed adult services. With COVID-19, services were more difficult to obtain and retain.
