Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (MRTK) is a rare, aggressive tumor seen in young children. The optimal timing of resection for locally advanced tumors is not well‐defined. The purpose of this study is to evaluate modern oncologic outcomes and the impact of surgical timing. Methods A multicenter retrospective review was performed

Predictability is attractive: female preference for behaviourally consistent males but no preference for the level of male aggression in a bi-parental cichlid [PDF]
, 2018 Although personality traits can largely affect individual fitness we know little about the evolutionary forces generating and maintaining personality variation.

Multivariate mate choice constrains mate preference evolution
Evolution and Human BehaviorMate preferences are ideals or standards believed to guide our mate choices, which are crucial to an individual’s inclusive fitness. In evolutionary psychology, many specific mate preferences are theorised to have evolved because choosing a partner with the preferred trait offers inclusive fitness benefits.

MYCN Amplification in RB1‐Inactivated Retinoblastoma: Association With High‐Risk Features
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background MYCN amplification occurs in a subset of retinoblastoma cases, both with and without RB1 inactivation. It has been suggested that retinoblastomas with MYCN amplification represent a distinct entity with more aggressive clinical behavior.

Localizing brain regions associated with female mate preference behavior in a swordtail.
PLoS ONE, 2012 Female mate choice behavior is a critical component of sexual selection, yet identifying the neural basis of this behavior is largely unresolved. Previous studies have implicated sensory processing and hypothalamic brain regions during female mate choice

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Adult‐onset Still's disease (AOSD) complicated by macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) carries substantial mortality. The role of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) remains uncertain. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with AOSD‐MAS treated with TPE at a single‐center.

Male mating constraints affect mutual mate choice: Prudent male courting and sperm limited females [PDF]
, 2008 Costs of sperm production may lead to prudence in male spermallocation and also to male mate choice. Here, we develop a life history–based mutual mate choice model that takes into account the lost-opportunity costs for males from time out in sperm ...
