“…Methods From February 2023 to January 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to conduct a cross-sectional study of 1,349 pregnant women in a tertiary hospital in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China using the Patient Health Questionnaire Depressive Symptom Cluster and the Stress in Pregnancy and Health-Related Quality of Life Scale, to construct a network to perform network estimation, and to determine core nodes of the network structure based on the centrality indexes. Results Maternal pregnancy stress score (1.71 ± 0.55), depressive symptoms (15.36 ± 4.70), and quality of life had the highest social functioning score (74.45 ± 12.63) and the lowest physical functioning score (65.18 ± 26.75). …”

Orientaciones para crear patios activos en los centros escolares (Orientations to create active playgrounds in schools) by Mª Isabel Salas Sánchez, Josep Vidal-Conti

“…The interest of this study consists primarily in specifying the main aspects that should be considered when carrying out changes in the organization and/or structure of school playground areas. The objectives which this article pursues are mainly three.  1) to show evidence from different studies of the importance of recess time in schools.  2) to establish a "road map" to carry out transformations which would help to create active and dynamic spaces contributing, above all, to the improvement of students' health and therefore allowing the teaching staff to carry out the project or program of change (given the particularities and singularities of each one of the centers) and 3) to define some transversal proposals which can be introduced within this space and time. …”

Productivity and ecological functions of naturally regrown pine forests of the Ukrainian Polissia by Petro Lakyda, Volodymyr Blyshchyk

“…Based on the indicators of basic wood density (341 kg·(m3)-1), the studied stands have a slightly lower density compared to other pine forests of the Ukrainian Polissia zone, which are characterized by high moisture content in wood at a young age, soil conditions (structure, mechanical composition, fertility), which has a significant impact on the formation of late wood, and, consequently, on its density. …”

Lethal clinical outcome and chemotherapy and immunotherapy resistance in patients with urothelial carcinoma with MDM2 amplification or overexpression by Weijuan Zhang, Jiejie Xu, Hailong Liu, Yu Zhu, Zewei Wang, Han Zeng, Zhaopei Liu, Yuan Chang, Le Xu, Kaifeng Jin, Jingtong Xu, Xiaohe Su, Yawei Ding, Lingkai Zhang, Jiaxing Sun, Yuzhen Wu

“…In addition, UC with MDM2 amplification or overexpression was associated with an immuno-evasive contexture characterized by lower proportion of tertiary lymphoid structure infiltration, lower abundance of CD8+ T cells, IFN-γ+ cells, GZMB+ cells, and decreased expression of immune checkpoint molecules including programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), programmed death-1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4).Conclusions MDM2 amplification or overexpression defines a lethal subset of patients with UC with inferior prognosis and resistance to both platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy irrespective of TP53/p53 status. …”
