Persistent Sleep Disturbance Following Pandemic Lockdowns: Longitudinal Findings From the UK COVID‐19 Symptom Study Biobank

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sleep disturbance and fatigue were highly prevalent during the COVID‐19 pandemic, in both infected and non‐infected individuals, though mostly assessed cross‐sectionally. To assess these symptoms after lockdown cessation, we conducted a prospective longitudinal study in a large UK cohort.

Neglected Tropical Diseases and Female Infertility: Possible Pathophysiological Mechanisms

Journal of Tropical Medicine
Battling female infertility has posed a global challenge, where neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) are nonetheless a notable contributing factor. NTDs affect a variety of diseases, often of a chronic nature, which are often cited as some of the most ...

Neuroendocrine Blockade of the Reproductive Axis in Female Athletes

Endocrines, 2022
This review aims at defining the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying the sport-induced restrictions of the reproductive axis in female athletes. Episodic gonadotropin release was found to be compromised, presumably a result of impaired hypothalamic ...

Preliminary study documents variable accuracy and inclusion among biology instructor gender/sex definitions

Natural Sciences Education, Volume 55, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Society generally presents sex inaccurately as a binary variable based on one or few trait(s), causing myriad issues, including the pursuit of reductionist biology experiments, the creation of laws that limit the rights of women, people with queer genders, and intersex folks, and greater student endorsement of gender stereotypes in ...

Electrophysiological Effects of Ghrelin in the Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus Neurons

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018
The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is involved in the control of sympathetic tone and the secretion of hormones, both functions known to be influenced by ghrelin, suggesting direct effect of ghrelin in this nucleus.

Low Free Testosterone Is Independently Associated With Long‐Term Mortality in Men With Chronic Spinal Cord Injury

Andrology, Volume 14, Issue 6, Page 1712-1722, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Testosterone deficiency is highly prevalent in men with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) and is associated with obesity, sarcopenia, systemic inflammation, and metabolic dysfunction. However, the independent prognostic role of low testosterone in long‐term mortality in this population remains unclear.

Endogenous Oxytocin Release Eliminates In-Group Bias in Monetary Transfers With Perspective-Taking

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Oxytocin (OT) has been shown to facilitate trust, empathy and other prosocial behaviors. At the same time, there is evidence that exogenous OT infusion may not result in prosocial behaviors in all contexts, increasing in-group biases in a number of ...

Specific Knockdown of Gene Expression in the Mature Rat Pineal Gland: The Cone‐Rod Homeodomain Transcription Factor Regulates Melatonin Synthesis In Vivo

Journal of Pineal Research, Volume 78, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Melatonin is synthesised from tryptophan by the sequential action of enzymes that are highly expressed in the pineal gland. Homeobox gene‐encoded transcription factors typically control organ development; however, a set of homeobox genes is strongly expressed in the adult pineal gland.
