Experiencing low support from teachers can be associated with low academic achievement. Nonetheless, individual- (i.e., ability self-concepts) and contextual-level (i.e., parental support) protective factors may help adolescents to display academic resilience. This study examined whether high school students' math ability self-concepts and parental support can mitigate the possible negative association between perceived low math teacher support and their math achievement.

Correlational data were drawn from the High School Longitudinal Study (N = 14,580, M
= 17.42 in 11
grade, 51% female), a nationally representative study of high school students in the U.S. The measures of protective factors (i.e., math ability self-concepts and parental support) were obtained from the surveys administered to students and parents in 9
grade. Students' perceived teacher support and their math achievement score were measured in 11
grade. A series of linear regression analyses were estimated to test our hypotheses.

ceived low teacher support and ability self-concepts in predicting adolescents' achievement varied by parental support. The association between perceived low teacher support and adolescents' math achievement was not statistically significant when adolescents were high on one of the protective factors. That is, high parental support may be protective for adolescents with low math ability self-concepts. ALK tumor This study highlights the interaction between adolescents' academic motivation and parental support in demonstrating resilience to perceived low teacher support.
Puberty experiences of male adolescents can have significant impacts on physical and psychological health outcomes. This qualitative study explored the puberty experiences of young males in Pakistan, as there are limited accounts of what shapes these puberty experiences, especially for adolescent males living in a restrictive culture.

Twenty-two young Pakistani men (aged 18-21 years) from two urban sites in Karachi participated in individual face-to-face (n=19) and Skype (n=3) interviews. Qualitative thematic analysis was conducted using an inductive approach to identity and examine the patterns emerging from the data.

Participants described puberty as a challenging phase for which they were unprepared with a combination of various socio-cultural factors exposing them to negative impacts. As a result, young men expressed feelings of anxiety, embarrassment and isolation. Societal and gender norms around masculinity, sexuality and the roles and responsibilities of young men had a significant impact on howpositively influence their long-term health, well-being and identity.The study was to understand the effect of the partial substitution of NaCl by KCl on small molecular metabolites and sensory quality of Xuanwei ham. Thirty green hams were randomly divided into five treatments, and salted with 100% NaCl (I), 70% NaCl+30% KCl (II), 60% NaCl+40% KCl (III), 50% NaCl+50% KCl (IV) and 40% NaCl+60% KCl (V), respectively. With the increase of KCl substitution, the moisture content of Xuanwei ham increased. Non-targeted ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS) was used to study the effect of partial substitution of NaCl by KCl, and twenty-eight metabolites were identified as markers of small molecular metabolites in the different treatments. KCl substitution promoted the release of tryptophan, histidine, citrulline, lysine, creatine and oleic acid, which contributed to improve the flavor and taste of ham. Therefore, the treatment II and III could reduce the NaCl content of Xuanwei ham by 30% and 40%, and maintained a better sensory acceptability.Accumulating evidence has revealed the mechanosensitive ion channel protein Piezo1 is contributing to tumorigenesis. However, its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains unexplored. In this study, we demonstrated that Piezo1 was expressed in the HepG2 cell line and depletion of Piezo1 impaired proliferation and migration, as well as increased apoptosis in these cells. Using a Piezo1-specific activator, Yoda1, we identified that calcium entry induced by Yoda1 resulted in phosphorylation of JNK, p38, and ERK, thereby activating the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway, in a dose- and time-dependent manner. More strikingly, Piezo1 activation integrated with YAP signaling to control the nuclear translocation of YAP and regulation of its target genes. JNK, p38, and ERK (MAPK signaling) regulated Yoda1-induced YAP activation. Consistent with the association of calpain with Piezo1, we also found that calpain activity was decreased by siRNA-mediated knockdown of Piezo1. In addition, the growth of HCC tumors was inhibited in Piezo1 haploinsufficient mice. Together, our findings establish that the Piezo1/MAPK/YAP signaling cascade is essential for HepG2 cell function. These results highlight the importance of Piezo1 in HCC and the potential utility of Piezo1 as a biomarker and therapeutic target.
The 11th revision of the WHO International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) has identified Complex PTSD (CPTSD) as a new condition.

To explore whether the new diagnosis of CPTSD (ICD11) is relevant to women who have experienced perinatal bereavement and to advance knowledge about the acceptability, feasibility and perceived impact of delivering an innovative flexible Compassionate Focused Therapy (CFT) informed treatment package to alleviate symptoms of this condition.

A mixed methods study using survey and interviews was conducted. Participants first completed the International Trauma Questionnaire (ITQ) to assess if they met the criteria for PTSD or CPTSD (n=72), and subsequent semi-structured interviews (n=12) identified participants' views about different treatment approaches.

A convenience sample of women who had experienced perinatal bereavement were recruited from one geographical region in Scotland.

Information was gathered about trauma experiences related to perinatal bereavement; participants' levels of PTSD or CPTSD using the ITQ; and views regarding the features of treatment options.
