Advances, challenges, and future directions in trauma-related Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) data efforts.

Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) data advances are becoming more common and more important across research fields given the large amount of research data in need of synthesis and application. Many novel methods improve the efficiency and accuracy of data reuse, combination, and synthesis, which is necessary given that there are over 500 published randomized controlled trials of posttraumatic stress disorder treatments in adults; however, these methods are still relatively new to the field of traumatic stress research. We provide a brief overview of relevant FAIR data efforts from other fields and within trauma health care and research; share examples of trauma-related FAIR data efforts to demonstrate recent advances and challenges; and suggest potential next steps to continue making trauma data more FAIR.

variants drive chromosomal fission and accelerate speciation in zokors.

Chromosomal fissions and fusions are common, yet the molecular mechanisms and implications in speciation remain poorly understood. Here, we confirm a fission event in one zokor species through multiple-omics and functional analyses. We traced this event to a mutation in a splicing enhancer of the DNA repair gene in the fission-bearing species, which caused exon skipping and produced a truncated protein that disrupted DNA repair.

Challenges in higher education: Differences between students with and without specific learning disorder and the moderating role of executive functions.

Students with Specific Learning Disorders (SLD) face difficulties not only in academic skills but also in the social, emotional, and executive function (EF) domains. These challenges may increase vulnerability to rumination-a repetitive and maladaptive focus on distress, which is strongly linked to emotional difficulties. This study explores differences in academic, social, emotional, and EF challenges between students with and without SLD and investigates whether these challenges moderate the relationship between SLD and rumination.

Distinct factors explain life space mobility below and above the age of 75 years old in older adults.

Life space mobility (LSM) is important for participation in daily life. It is influenced by individual and environmental factors and tends to decline with age. Although LSM has been studied in older adults, stratification of this population into age subgroups has not been performed, creating a gap in understanding the factors associated with LSM in a more granular manner.

Cognitive biases: potential behavioral marker for future development of postpartum depression and childbirth-related post-traumatic stress disorder.

Postpartum Depression (PPD) and Childbirth Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CB-PTSD) are psychiatric conditions that cause significant distress. Yet despite their high prevalence and decades of research, knowledge about causal cognitive mechanisms that may assist in predicting or preventing these conditions is still missing. One characteristic of PPD and CB-PTSD that may contribute to their early prevention is the existence of cognitive biases concerning future parenting.

Color polymorphism in Anemone coronaria: Correlations with soil, climate, and flowering phenology.

Premise: Flower color polymorphism (FCP) is thought to be driven by multiple selection agents. Although widely associated with visual attraction of multiple pollinators, FCP is also often correlated with abiotic factors. We explored the links between abiotic conditions, flowering phenology, and FCP in the winter-flowering geophyte Anemone coronaria L.

Examination and expansion of the entire modified dual pathway model of disordered eating among individuals with type 1 diabetes.

Objective: Disordered eating behaviors (DEB) are more common among adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) relative to the general population, potentially influenced by disease-specific risk factors. This study aims to examine associations among proposed risk factors in the modified dual pathway model and to identify literature-supported adaptations to improve the model's fit for adolescents with T1D.

Methods: The study included 215 adolescents and young adults with T1D (age 13-21 years; 51.

Automated analysis of emotional expressions in dogs based on geometric morphometrics.

Automated analysis of facial expressions is a vibrant field in human affective computing, while research in nonhuman animals is still in its early stages. Compared to labour-intensive manual coding, automation can provide a more reliable and objective alternative, eliminating subjectivity and bias. However, using automated approaches of facial analysis in nonhuman animals "in the wild", i.

Objective: The personalization in disability support emphasizes autonomy and tailored services. Individualized budget programs embody this approach, enabling participants to control resources and improve quality of life. This study, framed within self-determination theory, aimed to evaluate the contribution of Israel's individualized budget program.

Exploring Ethical Dilemmas and Concerns in Caring for Persons With Dementia: Insights From Formal Caregivers in Albania.

IntroductionDementia is an escalating global concern driven by aging populations, significantly impacting Low-Middle-income countries like Albania. Formal caregivers face a unique set of ethical dilemmas and concerns when caring for individuals with dementia and their families. The lack of ethical guidelines and policies further complicates decision-making in these contexts.

Transforming the Self: Metaphors Used by Israeli Abused Women.

Freeing the self from ongoing intimate partner violence is only part of overcoming its harmful consequences. Changes in the experience of abused women and their phenomenological world following separation or divorce from the perpetrator is essential for the process of recovery. This study analyzed the metaphors used by abused women to describe their lifeworld in violence and the processes experienced after the divorce, including transformation and emerging resilience.

European-based polygenic risk score and genome-wide association study of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma subtypes in Israeli Jews and Palestinian Arabs.

Among individuals of European Ancestry (EA), genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and polygenic risk scores (PRSs) associated with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) risk. We evaluated subtype-specific PRSs, based on established EA-SNPs, in Israeli Jews (IJ) and Palestinian Arabs (PA) and performed a GWAS in the combined ethnic groups to identify new loci. We included three common pathologically confirmed subtypes: diffuse large B-cell (DLBCL), follicular (FL) and marginal zone (MZL) lymphomas.

Licking microstructure behavior classifies a spectrum of emotional states in mice.

Measuring precise emotional tagging for taste information, with or without the use of words, is challenging. While affective taste valence and salience are core components of emotional experiences, traditional behavioral assays for taste preference, which often rely on cumulative consumption, lack the resolution to distinguish between different affective states, such as innate versus learned aversion, which are known to be mediated by distinct neural circuits. To overcome this limitation, we developed an open-source system for high-resolution microstructural analysis of licking behavior in freely moving mice.

Cannabidiol prevents cognitive and social deficits in a male rat model of Alzheimer's disease through CB1 activation and inflammation modulation.

Cognitive decline is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-intoxicating phytocannabinoid with immunomodulatory properties, shows promise in alleviating AD symptoms. This study examined the effects of chronic CBD treatment in a male rat model of sporadic AD induced by intracerebroventricular streptozotocin (ICV-STZ) and explored its impact on neuroinflammatory genes and cannabinoid signaling.

A graph homomorphism approach for unraveling histories of metastatic cancers and viral outbreaks under evolutionary constraints.

Viral infections and cancers are driven by evolution of populations of highly mutable genomic variants. A key evolutionary process in these populations is their migration or spread via transmission or metastasis. Understanding this process is crucial for research, clinical practice, and public health, yet tracing spread pathways is challenging.

Wings as Part of the Sensory System in the Aphid Subfamily Eriosomatinae s. lat. (Insecta, Hemiptera).

Wings are a crucial evolutionary trait of insects and constitute an important part of their sensory system. Phloem-feeding aphids specialising in particular host plant species require an efficient sensory system and locomotive abilities to find an appropriate plant to complete the life cycle. Wings (in winged morphs) play a crucial role in this dispersal, but the sensory part of their structure is neglected.

Valence-Driven Cognitive Flexibility: Neurochemical and Circuit-Level Insights from Animal Models and Their Relevance to Schizophrenia.

Cognitive flexibility, the ability to adapt behavior to changing environmental demands, is a core deficit in schizophrenia (SZ), that predicts disease progression. This review synthesizes findings on the neural substates of cognitive flexibility by using a framework that distinguishes animal model tasks by their motivational valence: aversive versus appetitive. While human studies using tasks like the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) reveal significant cognitive inflexibility in SZ, particularly in set shifting, rodent models provide important mechanistic insights.

Emotional Brain Development: Neurobiological Indicators from Fetus Through Toddlerhood.

The maturation of brain regions involved in emotion regulation-particularly the amygdala and prefrontal cortex-from fetal life to age two is a dynamic process shaped by genetic and environmental factors. Early experiences, especially responsive caregiving, promote the growth of neural circuits supporting emotional expression and regulation. In contrast, early adversity such as neglect or chronic stress may disrupt these circuits and increase vulnerability to emotional difficulties.

Metal(oid)s in Ulva - should we be worried?

Ulva spp. are promising food resources owing to their nutritional richness and beneficial properties. However, it accumulates potentially toxic trace elements, raising health safety concerns and proving useful for biomonitoring studies.

DeePosit, an AI-based tool for detecting mouse urine and fecal depositions from thermal video clips of behavioral experiments.

In many mammals, including rodents, social interactions are often accompanied by active urination (micturition), which is considered a mechanism for spatial scent marking. Urine and fecal deposits contain a variety of chemosensory signals that convey information about the individual's identity, genetic strain, social rank, and physiological or hormonal state. Furthermore, scent marking has been shown to be influenced by the social context and by the individual's internal state and experience.
