Beyond LDL-C: Modern Lipid Management for ASCVD Prevention in Primary Care
Prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is fundamental for both cardiologists and primary care physicians. From risk estimation to medical therapy for primary and secondary prevention, management is evolving with increasing evidence. Risk estimation is moving...

An Exact Non-Symmetric Strong Spectral Criterion for Root-Loop Spider Matrices
For an arbitrary real root-loop bidirected spider matrix, we prove that the non-symmetric strong spectral property holds exactly when the characteristic polynomials of the root-deleted arms are pairwise coprime. The criterion permits non-symmetric weights, negative directed edge...

Crop domestication has induced a severe genetic bottleneck that reduces the adaptive diversity present in modern cultivars. Standard intra-population genomic prediction models reliant on linear reference genomes and SNPs fail to capture the full spectrum of phenotypic variance hi...

Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells with robust multipotent differentiation potential, indicating that they are promising for bone tissue engineering (BTE). We previously screened a secreted peptide, P1DC, derived from differentiated hD...

AGV: a web-based visualization tool for reconstructed ancestral genomes
The ancestral genome is the genome of the common ancestor of extant species. Ancestral genome reconstruction infers evolutionary events from extant genomes to recover the genomic states of extinct ancestors. Although this approach provides a powerful framework for studying genome...

The first year of standardised residency training is a critical transition from medical student to clinical practitioner, during which trainees struggle to integrate theoretical knowledge with clinical competencies. Traditional teaching often lacks active learning and authentic c...

A Recursive Non-Symmetric Strong Spectral Criterion for Root-Loop Tree Matrices
For an arbitrary finite rooted tree with bidirected nonzero edge entries and a single nonzero root loop, we characterize the non-symmetric strong spectral property. It holds exactly when, at every vertex, the characteristic polynomials of the complete child subtrees are pairwise...

The right temporoparietal junction (rTPJ) is one neural region that has been implicated in empathy in previous studies. However, prior findings regarding its role have been inconsistent. Moreover, methodological limitations in earlier research, including the use of suboptimal emp...

Ti-base abutments with angulated screw channel (ASC) designs have been developed to address the esthetic challenges associated with labial screw access in anterior implant-supported single crowns, as well as the ergonomic limitations caused by restricted mouth opening in posterio...

Ajuga reptans L. from Romanian flora as a promising candidate for novel food applications
The increasing demand for natural ingredients with both functional and sensory properties has stimulated the exploration of underutilised plant species as potential sources for novel food applications. Ajuga reptans L. (Lamiaceae) remains relatively underexplored despite its phyt...

Predictors of hysterectomy during myomectomy: a retrospective cohort study
This study aimed to determine the risk of unplanned hysterectomy during myomectomy and identify factors associated with this risk. A total of 1,368 patients who underwent myomectomy at four hospitals in Osmaniye Province, Türkiye, between January 2014 and December 2025 were retro...

Impact of Menopause and Menopausal Hormone Therapy on Liver–Kidney–Metabolic Health
Menopause is associated with unfavorable metabolic changes that may contribute to the development of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), and increased cardiometabolic risk. Within the evolving cardiovascular-kidney-metab...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing enables the precise design of biomaterials at predefined spatial locations, representing a promising strategy for constructing highly organized osteochondral tissue with multiple morphogen gradients. However, most current 3D printing strategies lim...

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) commonly arises in metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), alcohol-related liver disease (ALD), and metabolic dysfunction-associated ALD (MetALD), yet how zonal metabolic programs govern tumor lineage and immune responses remains un...

Considerable interindividual variability exists in the spread and duration of spinal anesthesia despite standardized anesthetic techniques. Lumbosacral cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) volume has been proposed as an important anatomical determinant of neuraxial block characteristics. Ho...
