Aim: We examined whether reciprocal relationships were present between the SURPS personality profiles and substance use in early adolescence.
Methods: Longitudinal data of four-waves of a broader effectiveness study were used from 1068 early adolescents.
Results: Our cross-lagged models indicated that sensation seeking and impulsivity show strongest reciprocal associations with substance use during early adolescence. In contrast, no reciprocity was present between substance use and anxiety sensitivity and only one reciprocal relationship was present between substance use and hopelessness.
Conclusions: In trying to prevent early adolescents from alcohol and tobacco use, it might be of key importance to acknowledge the mutual influence between certain personality profiles and substance use. Specifically, sensation seeking and impulsivity are relevant during early adolescence and awareness of early adolescents' vulnerability for these personality predispositions is warranted.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the evolution of jump and sprint force-production capacities with maturation in young soccer players. One hundred sixteen young elite male soccer players aged 11-17 years were assigned to six different groups according to their maturity status. The force-velocity (F-V) profiles in jumping and sprinting performances were compared among groups.

Background: Changes to the calculation of the Kidney Donor Profile Index (KDPI) have lowered the KDPI of hepatitis C (HCV+) donor kidneys; therefore, increasing the proportion of pediatric-prioritized kidneys that are HCV+. We aimed to study consent rates for HCV+ kidneys among pediatric kidney transplant candidates.
Methods: We identified pediatric candidates waitlisted from 2019 to 2024 and excluded those who received a living donor transplant.

Background And Aims: Gut-liver axis has been implicated in the pathophysiology of cirrhosis due to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), an in vitro model for studying epithelial gut dysfunction in MASLD is lacking. In this study, we aimed to characterise intestinal organoids derived from subjects with MASLD.
Materials And Methods: Intestinal organoids were obtained from duodenal samples of individuals with non-fibrotic MASLD and with MASLD-cirrhosis.

Background: Early secondary school students' perceptions of their social relationships in class are closely linked to their levels of motivation. However, person-centred research examining patterns of social relationships with both peers and teachers remains limited.
Aims: This study explored the existence, stability and transitions of latent profiles of students' social relationships over time, as well as their interconnectedness with students' motivation, gender, immigration background and educational track.

As sheep production standards progress, and animals are bred for high production in terms of the number and weight of lambs weaned per ewe, research has identified a difference in the physiology of single lambs compared to multiple born lambs. The current study aimed to report the baseline amino acid (AA) profiles and blood gas concentrations in newborn, Merino single and twin lambs. From 120 days of gestation, 50 single-bearing and 50 twin-bearing, naturally mated Merino ewes were monitored for signs of approaching parturition.
