These features were accompanied by p53 activation, which conceivably increases cancer cell vulnerability to UV exposure. These data highlight the importance of understanding complex Girdin functions that influence cancer cell sensitivity to therapeutics.
To compare success rates between the sub-periosteal prepared (SPP) muco-periosteal flap and the epi-periosteal prepared (EPP) mucosa flap and the feasibility of alveoplasty after surgical tooth extractions in patients undergoing/after antiresorptive treatment.
Patients with an indication for preventive tooth extraction undergoing/after antiresorptive treatment were enrolled over a 24-month period in a parallel-group randomized clinical pilot trial and randomly assigned for primary wound closure to either the SPP or the EPP group. The primary outcome was treatment failure 8weeks after surgery. To assess the feasibility of alveoplasty, necrotic bone changes at the time point of tooth extraction were evaluated.
One hundred and sixty patients were randomized to the SSP (n=82) or the EPP (n=78) group. One hundred and fifty-seven patients met the primary endpoint 8weeks after surgery with five treatment failures for the SPP group (6.3%) and 18 (23.4%) for the EPP group (p=.004). A significant relationship (p<.0001) was observed between symptomatic teeth and non-vital bone found in 54.8% of all biopsies.
The strong superiority of the muco-periosteal flap as primary wound closure revealed the feasibility and effectiveness of the study. The large number of necrotic biopsies emphasizes the importance of alveoplasty as a preventive measure.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients' use of the Internet for health information interacts with the way they trust their gastroenterologist. No standardized measure has targeted IBS patients and gastroenterologists specifically, nor their use of the Internet. The aims of this paper were as follows the development of a scale that measures an IBS patient's trust in their gastroenterologist, the development of a scale measuring an IBS patient's reliance on Internet health information, and testing the hypothesis that IBS patients, who use the Internet for IBS-related information, trust their gastroenterologist less than those who do not.
A total of 82 patients (mean age 49, SD=14.62) diagnosed with IBS completed two questionnaires one about trust in their gastroenterologist and the other about the reliance on Internet health information regarding IBS. The two questionnaires were built using current literature as well as our previous qualitative research. The statistical computations were performed using the SPSS 20 program.
Both questionnaires proved to be reliable in measuring gastroenterologist-IBS patient trust (alpha=0.87) and Internet information reliance (alpha=0.88), respectively. The IBS patients who did not look for information about IBS over the Internet had significantly higher trust in their gastroenterologist compared with those who did (U=535.5; z=-2.26; P<0.05).
We developed two ready-to-use scales to measure both the gastroenterologist-IBS patient's trust and the IBS patient's reliance on the Internet. Further studies will be able to explore the interaction among all variables in IBS patients' trust.

This study aims to examine the associations between weight change from childhood to adulthood and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors and outcomes in adulthood. PubMed, Embase and ISI Web of Science between 1 August 1953 and 13 July 2020 were searched, and a total of 52 eligible articles were included. The systematic review supported significant associations between the life-course increase in BMI and high odds of markers in adulthood. In the meta-analyses, normal weight in childhood but excess weight in adulthood or persistent excess weight was associated with increased odds of adult markers. However, those who had excess weight in childhood but were normal weight in adulthood did not have increased odds of nearly all adult markers. This systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that individuals who developed excess weight in adulthood or had excess weight in both periods had higher odds of developing CVD risk factors and outcomes in adulthood. In contrast, the probability of these adult markers could be limited or eliminated for children with excess weight who are able to become adults with normal weight.Spontaneous mutations in the EEF1A2 gene cause epilepsy and severe neurological disabilities in children. The crystal structure of eEF1A2 protein purified from rabbit skeletal muscle reveals a post-translationally modified dimer that provides information about the sites of interaction with numerous binding partners, including itself, and maps these mutations onto the dimer and tetramer interfaces. The spatial locations of the side chain carboxylates of Glu301 and Glu374, to which phosphatidylethanolamine is uniquely attached via an amide bond, define the anchoring points of eEF1A2 to cellular membranes and interorganellar membrane contact sites. Additional bioinformatic and molecular modeling results provide novel structural insight into the demonstrated binding of eEF1A2 to SH3 domains, the common MAPK docking groove, filamentous actin, and phosphatidylinositol-4 kinase IIIβ. In this new light, the role of eEF1A2 as an ancient, multifaceted, and articulated G protein at the crossroads of autophagy, oncogenesis and viral replication appears very distant from the "canonical" one of delivering aminoacyl-tRNAs to the ribosome that has dominated the scene and much of the thinking for many decades.
