Article Abstract
To identify the genetic risk factors for aggressive periodontitis (AgP), it is important to understand the progression and pathogenesis of AgP. The purpose of this review was to summarize the genetic risk factors for AgP identified through a case-control genomewide association study (GWAS) and replication study. The initial studies to identify novel AgP risk factors were potentially biased because they relied on previous studies. To overcome this kind of issue, an unbiased GWAS strategy was introduced to identify genetic risk factors for various diseases. Currently, three genes glycosyltransferase 6 domain containing 1 (GLT6D1), defensin α1 and α3 (DEFA1A3), and sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 5 (SIGLEC5) that reach the threshold for genomewide significance have been identified as genetic risk factors for AgP through a case-control GWAS.

The ability to navigate through one's environment is crucial for maintaining independence in daily life and depends on complex cognitive and motor functions that are vulnerable to decline in persons with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). While previous research suggests a role for mobility in the physical act of navigation, it remains unclear to what extent mobility impairment and perceptions of mobility constraints may modify wayfinding and the recall of environment details in support of successful navigation. Therefore, this study examined the relations among clinical mobility function, concern about falling, and recall of environment details in a clinical sample of MS.

Walking is essential for maintaining independence and quality of life, yet aging may impair the neuromuscular function required for stable gait over time. This study sought to quantify age-related differences in step-to-step control during prolonged walking using detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA). We hypothesized that step-to-step changes in step length and step width would exhibit reduced temporal persistence over time, with more pronounced effects in older than in younger adults.

The fragmented ecological environment in the mining ecosystem has a significant impact on the microbial community and affects ecosystem stability. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) facilitate nutrient exchange and element cycling between soil and plants, which play a crucial role in the functionality and stability of soil ecosystems. However, the mechanism of ecological environment factors influencing AMF community assembly in mining areas is still unclear.

Background: Disparities in cancer burden between transgender and cisgender individuals remain an underexplored area of research.
Objective: This study aimed to examine the cumulative incidence and associated risk factors for cancer and precancerous conditions among transgender individuals compared with matched cisgender individuals.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study using patient-level electronic health record (EHR) data from the University of Florida Health Integrated Data Repository between 2012 and 2023.
