Summary: The decommissioning of oil and gas facilities globally is an increasingly pressing issue, with research focusing primarily on biodiversity, particularly at a local scale, while other topics are relatively understudied. Future research should expand the focus, evaluate the benefits of retaining and removing structures, and consider ecological impacts at larger spatial and temporal scales.

Summary: Although radiomics shows promise in analyzing medical image data, there are pitfalls to avoid for reproducibility. There is a gap in translating radiomics research into clinical practice, and more high-evidence studies focusing on prospective research with clinical impact are needed going forward.

Summary: The effects of plant-soil interactions on plant productivity and traits under drought conditions were investigated in this study. The reduction of soil microbial load by soil steam sterilization resulted in increased plant productivity under wet conditions and led to plant traits associated with fast-growing strategies. Drought in sterilized soil decreased productivity, promoted earlier wilting and resulted in the development of plant traits associated with a more slow-growing strategy.

Summary: The persistence of glyphosate in forest understory plant tissues in northern British Columbia can last up to 12 years, with root tissues generally retaining residues longer than shoot tissues. Samples from the colder, more northern biogeoclimatic zone retain significantly higher levels of glyphosate for longer compared to samples from the warmer biogeoclimatic zone. This study utilized advanced analytical techniques to elucidate the actual length of time of glyphosate persistence, rather than relying on estimations based on half-life curves.

Summary: Supercapacitors are gaining popularity in the field of energy storage devices due to their high power density, long cycle stability, and quick charge/discharge rates. This review focuses on contemporary methods to increase the power density, rate capability, cycle stability, and energy density of supercapacitors using hybrid topologies. The design of hybrid supercapacitor electrodes with high specific capacitance and the mechanisms involved are discussed, along with the evaluation of various electrode materials. The paper also summarizes the new trends and improvements in supercapacitor development.

Summary: Visitation between children in care and their families is crucial, but workers often lack the skills to handle it effectively. This study analyzed visitation guidelines from US state child welfare agencies and found that they lack specificity and do not align with research findings. Updating and expanding these guidelines is necessary to improve practice.

Summary: The electrophysiological function of the tongue involves complex activities in taste perception of salty, sweet, bitter, and sour. Further fundamental research is needed for therapies and prevention of taste loss caused by dysfunction in electrophysiological activity. The application of optogenetics in taste research has revolutionized neuroscience and opened new opportunities for understanding sensory systems.

Summary: This retrospective study assessed the effectiveness and safety of tildrakizumab in the real-life clinical practice for treating plaque psoriasis. The results showed that a significant proportion of patients achieved PASI 75, PASI 90, and PASI 100 at 52 weeks, with higher percentages achieving complete skin clearance. No significant safety concerns were observed, and no patients had to discontinue treatment due to adverse events.

Summary: Heritable conditions known as ectodermal dysplasias are rare and can have significant impacts on morbidity, mortality, and quality of life. Diagnosing and caring for individuals with these conditions is challenging due to their rarity and diverse phenotypes. Researchers and clinicians gathered at a 2021 international conference to advance the diagnosis and treatment of ectodermal conditions, focusing on skin, hair, tooth, and eye phenotypes. Promising treatment strategies discussed included gene or protein replacement, gene editing, cell therapy, and identifying druggable targets. Barriers hindering the development of novel therapeutics were also addressed, such as lack of prevalence data, patient registries, and animal models. Overcoming these barriers is crucial for the development of new treatments for genetic disorders of the ectoderm.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of early intervention with secukinumab and traditional nb-UVB phototherapy in patients with new-onset moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. The results showed that secukinumab was more effective than nb-UVB, and early use of biologic treatment may be more effective in treating psoriasis.

Summary: The TRIBUTE study assessed the efficacy and impact on health-related quality of life of Tildrakizumab in moderate-to-severe psoriasis patients in conditions similar to clinical practice. After 24 weeks, a high proportion of patients achieved significant improvement in psoriasis signs and quality of life. Patient-reported outcomes showed improvements in sleep outcomes, work productivity, and treatment satisfaction. The safety profile was favorable.

Summary: The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying skin erosions in AEC patients. iPSCs were generated from AEC patients and TP63 mutations were corrected. Downregulation of key components of hemidesmosomes and focal adhesions was observed in AEC iPSC-K. Reduced migration of AEC iPSC-K and abnormalities in skin tissues of AEC patients were also observed. Integration defects and downregulation of extracellular matrix adhesion receptors may contribute to the formation of skin erosions in AEC.
