Summary: This study provides a comprehensive estimate of the costs related to atrial flutter and shows that patients with atrial flutter have significantly higher healthcare costs compared to those without atrial arrhythmias. The national incremental cost burden of atrial flutter is substantial on a per-patient level, primarily due to cardiovascular-specific expenditure.

Summary: The number of annotated noncoding RNAs and RNA-binding proteins has significantly increased in recent years. While the wide range of RNA-binding proteins identified suggests a vast potential for RNA in cell biology, the functional importance of these interactions remains to be fully demonstrated, highlighting the need for further exploration and research.

Summary: HBO1 is overexpressed in HCC tissues and cells, leading to enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while its low expression in normal liver tissues indicates its potential role in HCC progression. This suggests that HBO1 may be a promising target for therapy in HCC.

Summary: LED technology can optimize photosynthesis, plant shape, and secondary metabolism. Increasing blue photon fraction led to a linear decrease in yield, but had no significant effect on CBD or THC concentration. Fixture efficacy and initial cost are more important for return on investment than spectral distribution at high photon flux.

Summary: The study estimates the economic loss of emitting one tonne of methane into the atmosphere, finding that SC-CH4 values are higher than previous estimates based on climate uncertainty frameworks. The choice of methane cycle sub-models within one IAM can cause variations of around 20% in estimated SC-CH4, while switching IAMs can more than double the estimated SC-CH4 values.

Summary: This study directly assessed the incidence of dementia, DALYs, and cost of care among community-dwelling Filipino elderly. The findings revealed a high incidence rate of dementia, significant economic burden of dementia care on families, and provide valuable insights for guiding the development of a national dementia plan.

Summary: This article discusses the criteria for assessing the success of infrastructure projects, pointing out the importance of external stakeholders and the environment, which is often overlooked by the traditional iron triangle criteria. The authors propose a new action plan focused on achieving social value and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and engaging with external stakeholders to improve infrastructure provision.

Summary: Phylogenetically closely related plant species often share similar trait states, but local assembly may favor dissimilar relatives and thereby decouple the diversity of a trait from the diversity of phylogenetic lineages. Associated fauna might either benefit from or suffer from plant trait diversity. We hypothesize that the decoupling of trait and phylogenetic diversity weakens the relationship between plant-trait diversity and the abundance and diversity of associated fauna.

Summary: The study aimed to characterize the economic burden associated with different clinical profiles of hemophilia B from a US health system perspective. Results showed that patients with hemophilia B had significantly higher healthcare resource use and costs compared to matched controls, with costs increasing as the severity of the condition worsened.
