With the prevalence of higher-weight people and the adverse outcomes associated with weight stigma, body size is a necessary component of multicultural training. However, body size has not routinely been included in identity-based prejudice training for mental health professionals. This article aims to support clinicians and researchers in their recognition of, and response to, weight stigma and size privilege. Further, this article asserts that training in sizeism is essential for the multicultural competencies of mental health providers, psychological science researchers, and those in allied fields. As such, methods for recognizing, situating, and challenging size privilege are proposed.

Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality globally. Early detection of high-risk patients for local or distant metastasis is challenging for better monitoring and treatment planning. Machine learning models have been proposed for diagnosis and prediction of metastasis risk.

Background: Despite recent significant therapeutic progress, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain an unmet clinical, economic, and social burden worldwide. Cell-based therapies have been proposed as therapeutic strategies, however, the overall efficacy was modest.
Objective: We aimed to fully characterize a novel subpopulation of CD90 mesenchymal cells derived from human heart tissue (hCmPC90) and evaluate its ability to induce cardiac tissue repair and functional recovery.

IntroductionLung cancer has the highest mortality rate among all cancer types globally, largely due to delayed or ineffective diagnosis and treatment. Radiomics is commonly used to diagnose lung cancer, especially in later stages or during routine screenings. However, frequent radiological imaging poses health risks, and while advanced diagnostic alternatives exist, they are often costly and accessible only to a limited, privileged population.

Metalloenzymes have emerged as substantial therapeutic targets in the pathogenesis of various human health conditions. Fluoroquinolones' (FQs) derivatives of reduced nuclei harbor privileged scaffolds with versatile biological activities (antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, selective antiproliferation and antilipolysis/antidiabesity). Highly functionalized lipophilic FQs (6e, 4a, and 6f) with prominent in vitro DPPH radical scavenging capacities were fed orally (20 mg/kg body weight) for 3 days to adult male Wistar rats (200 ± 10) g of i.

In the synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), efforts to increase the pore sizes by elongating linkers often result in interpenetration, a challenge that is exacerbated when functional groups are added. Urea groups and their derivatives play an important role in supramolecular chemistry by providing directional hydrogen bonding donor sites and are often considered "privileged groups". Incorporating these moieties into MOFs allows for their spatial separation, a critical approach to enhancing their functional activity, simultaneously preventing interpenetration, and enlarging the pore size.
