Hyolithid-like hyoliths without helens from the early Cambrian of South China, and their implications for the evolution of hyoliths

BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Background A small hyolith, with a triangular operculum and a conical-pyramidal conch with a sharp apex, originally documented as Ambrolinevitus ventricosus, is revised based on new material from the Chengjiang biota.

Early-life neighborhood context, perceived stress, and preterm birth in African American Women. [PDF]

, 2019
Stressors from multiple sources, across the life-course, may have independent and joint associations with preterm birth (PTB) risk in African American women. Using data from the Life-course Influences on Fetal Environments Study (LIFE; 2009-2011) of post-

Clinical Insights Into Hypercalcemia of Malignancy in Childhood

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypercalcemia of malignancy (HCM) is a rare but life‐threatening metabolic emergency in children that occurs in less than 1% of pediatric cancer cases, with a reported incidence ranging from 0.4% to 1.0% across different studies. While it is observed in 10%–20% of adult malignancies, pediatric HCM remains relatively uncommon.

Petrogenesis of Huichizi granite and hosted amphibolite lens: implications for early Paleozoic evolution of the North Qinling orogenic belt

Frontiers in Earth Science
The genesis of Early Paleozoic granite and its relationship with multi-stage metamorphism in the North Qinling Tectonic Belt (NQTB) are heavily debated and limit our understanding on the evolution of the Qinling Orogenic Belt. In this paper, we conducted

Survival Outcomes and Complications Among Canadian Children With Retinoblastoma: A Population‐Based Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.

Early Life Relict Feature in Peptide Mass Distribution [PDF]

, 2008
Molecular mass of a biomolecule is characterized in mass spectroscopy by the monoisitopic mass M~mono~ and the average isotopic mass M~av~. We found that peptide masses mapped on a plane made by two parameters derived from M~mono~ and M~av~ form a ...

Recent advances in our understanding of brown and beige adipose tissue: the good fat that keeps you healthy [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2018
Brown adipose tissue (BAT) possesses a unique uncoupling protein (UCP1) which, when activated, enables the rapid generation of heat and the oxidation of lipids or glucose or both. It is present in small amounts (~15–350 mL) in adult humans.
