ARV-771 reduced the levels of bleomycin-induced hydroxyproline in a mouse model.
Changes in the free fatty acid profile, including low levels of stearic acid, were observed in IPF patients. Stearic acid may exert antifibrotic activity by regulating profibrotic signalling.

We propose a targeted high-throughput screening system to search birefringence-active functional modules (FMs) and large birefringent materials. A series of π-conjugated C-O units [C2 O4 ]2- , [C2 O6 ]2- , [C4 O4 ]2- , and [C6 O6 ]2- are discovered to be birefringence-active FMs. Theoretical and experimental studies on the crystals with C-O units confirm the feasibility of strategy. Based on this, the C-O containing compounds ranging from deep-ultraviolet to near-infrared region with large birefringence from 0.1 to 1.35 are found, and most of them break through the birefringent limit of oxides. The (NH4 )2 C2 O4 ⋅H2 O crystal is grown and its experimental birefringence is 0.248 at 546 nm, which is identified as a promising UV birefringent crystal. The A-site cations play significant roles in optical properties by influencing the density and arrangement of the C-O units.
To identify factors independently associated with late claim closure, a proxy for recovery, in older (65+years) compared to younger (17-64years) adults following road traffic crash injury (RTI).
Multivariable analysis of statewide compensation data from New South Wales (NSW), Australia, for NSW residents aged ≥17years injured in a non-catastrophic RTI between July 2010 and June 2013 with finalised claims (n=16687).
Legal representation was the dominant factor independently associated with late claim closure in both age groups. However, the odds were doubly high for the younger group (younger AOR 8.46, 95% CI 7.7-9.4; older AOR 3.95, 95% CI 3.1-5.0). Median time to claim closure was shorter for older people.
Older (and younger) claimants with legal representation are at increased risk of late claim closure and can be readily identified within routinely collected compensation data, enabling delivery of targeted strategies or supports early in the claims process.

In this review, I propose that in order to comprehend events, we engage hierarchical generative models that "reverse engineer" the intentions of other agents as they produce sequential action in real time. By generating probabilistic predictions for upcoming events, generative models ensure that we are able to keep up with the rapid pace at which perceptual inputs unfold. By tracking our certainty about other agents' goals and the magnitude of prediction errors at multiple temporal scales, generative models enable us to detect event boundaries by inferring when a goal has changed. #link# Moreover, by adapting flexibly to the broader dynamics of the environment and our own comprehension goals, generative models allow us to optimally allocate limited resources. Finally, I argue that we use generative models not only to comprehend events but also to produce events (carry out goal-relevant sequential action) and to continually learn about new events from our surroundings. Taken together, this hierarchical generative framework provides new insights into how the human brain processes events so effortlessly while highlighting the fundamental links between event comprehension, production, and learning.
The aim of this study was to provide information about the spread and characteristics of the vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium isolates (VREfm) in Turkey.
Seventy-one nonduplicate consecutive isolates of VREfm were obtained from various clinical specimens of inpatients treated at university or training hospitals in seven regions of Turkey. Further characteristics included antibiotic susceptibility testing, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of SmaI-digested genomic DNA, and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) of selected isolates. The presence of vancomycin resistance and virulence genes (esp and hyl) was investigated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
All VREfm isolates had MICs to vancomycin of ≥32mg/L and contained the vanA gene. The presence of esp gene was identified in 64 and hyl in eight VREfm isolates. All VREfm showed the multiresistance phenotype, including ampicillin (99%), penicillin (99%), imipenem (99%), ciprofloxacin (87%), moxifloxacin (87%), erythromycin (97%), streptomycin he worldwide epidemic strains are in circulation in Turkey.
Suicidal behavior is the third leading cause of death in adolescents in the world. Suicide behavior in adolescents can be prevented by recognizing risk factors and protective factors originating from themselves and the surrounding environment. This study aimed to identify risk factors and protective factors for adolescents who demonstrate suicidal behavior.
A systematic search in four databases, including ScienceDirect, EBSCO, Direct Open Access Journal, and ProQuest, was performed using the terms "suicide," "risk," and "adolescent." The search was limited to publications between 2015 and 2019. Articles were selected using PRISMA, a total of 66 articles were analyzed in the systematic review, all of which were quantitative studies.
Based on the synthesis results, it was found that internal risk factors, external risk factors, and protective factors for adolescents who demonstrate suicidal behavior.
The results indicated that there are risk factors, both internal and external factors inhibiting suicide behavior in adolescents, which were rarely considered in the promotion and prevention effort of adolescent suicidal behavior.
