    Abstract Opioid use is extremely prevalent among cirrhosis and liver transplant (LT) patients, despite concerns regarding opioid-related risks in this population. While there are many theoretical risks of opioids in patients with hepatic dysfunction, there is limited evidence on the effect of opioid use on clinical outcomes in cirrhosis and pre- and post-LT patients specifically. As a result there is significant center-level variability in opioid-related practice and policies. The existing data-largely based on retrospective observational studies-does suggest that opioids are associated with increased health resource utilization pre- and post-LT, and that they may precipitate hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in patients with cirrhosis and increase risk of graft loss and death post-LT. The strongest predictor of opioid use post-LT is opioid use prior to transplant; thus, a focus on safe opioid use in the pre- and peri-transplant periods is essential for minimizing opioid-related harms. We describe three strategies to guide LT providers, including: 1) Improved characterization of pain, mental health symptoms, and opioid and polysubstance use; 2) Minimization of opioid prescriptions for those at highest risk of adverse events; and 3) Safe prescribing strategies for those who do use opioids and for management of opioid use disorder (OUD). Ultimately, our goal is to improve quality of life and transplant outcomes among cirrhosis and LT patients, particularly those living with concurrent pain, mental health, and substance use disorders.

    Abstract The widespread use of disinfectants and antiseptics, and consequently their release into the environment, determines the relevance of studying their potential impact on the main producers of organic matter on the planet-photosynthetic organisms. The review examines the effects of some biguanides and quaternary ammonium compounds, octenidine, miramistin, chlorhexidine, and picloxidine, on the functioning of the photosynthetic apparatus of various organisms (Strakhovskaya et al. in Photosynth Res 147:197-209, 2021; Knox et al. in Photosynth Res 153:103, 2022; Paschenko et al. in Photosynth Res 155:93-105, 2023a, Photosynth Res 2023b). A common feature of these antiseptics is the combination of hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions in the molecules, the latter carrying a positive charge(s). The comparison of the results obtained with intact bacterial membrane vesicles (chromatophores) and purified pigment-protein complexes (photosystem II and I) of oxygenic organisms allows us to draw conclusions about the mechanisms of the cationic antiseptic action on the functional properties of the components of the photosynthetic apparatus.

    Abstract A lipase isolated from the fungus Candida rugosahas beenpurified and crystallized in a form suitable for X-ray crystallographic structure determination. Several proteins with lipolytic activity having isoelectric points from 4.2 to 5.8 were separated by ion exchange chromatography.The protein having the lowestisoelectric point was crystallized from 2-methy]-2,4-pentandiol in MES bufferin the presenceof calcium (II) salts. The crystals with cell dimensions a=64.9(1) 7 b=97.2(1) A and b=175.8(2)A, grow as large colorless plates often exceeding 0.7 mm in each of two dimensions. From the diffraction pattern the apparent crystal symmetry is C222,. Experimental density determination suggests one 60,000 M,. molecule in the asymmetric unit and approximately 50% solvent by volume. Theratio unit cell volume to the molecular weightof the contents of the unit cell, Vj, is 2.3 A3/d. Diffraction is strong to a resolution of 2 A resolution and work is underway to determine the three dimensional structure of this enzyme.

    Abstract In this article, the authors introduce mutual insurance as a constructive component of the modern entrepreneurial landscape aimed at the protection of the wealth-related interests of the participants of the mutual insurance company (mutual insurance society, friendly society, etc.). Analyzing mutual insurance, the authors display it from the standpoint of entrepreneurship and assume that such companies (MICs) are among the insurance market actors. The specific feature of MICs is that they form the community of their members-policyholders. As far as members of each organization of this kind are its co-owners, they carry out some critical entrepreneurial activity functions. The object of this research is represented by the insurance market of the Russian Federation, through the prism of which the degree of development of MICs was demonstrated, and the barriers to its infrastructure growth were determined.

    Abstract The Hippo signaling pathway is a highly conserved pathway that plays important roles in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis. Transcription factors TEAD1-4 and transcriptional coregulators YAP/TAZ are the downstream effectors of the Hippo pathway and can modulate Hippo biology. Dysregulation of this pathway is implicated in tumorigenesis and acquired resistance to therapies. The emerging importance of YAP/TAZ-TEAD interaction in cancer development makes it a potential therapeutic target. In the past decade, disrupting YAP/TAZ-TEAD interaction as an effective approach for cancer treatment has achieved great progress. This approach followed a trajectory wherein peptidomimetic YAP-TEAD protein-protein interaction disruptors (PPIDs) were first designed, followed by the discovery of allosteric small molecule PPIDs, and currently, the development of direct small molecule PPIDs. YAP and TEAD form three interaction interfaces. Interfaces 2 and 3 are amenable for direct PPID design. One direct YAP-TEAD PPID (IAG933) that targets interface 3 has entered a clinical trial in 2021. However, in general, strategically designing effective small molecules PPIDs targeting TEAD interfaces 2 and 3 has been challenging compared with allosteric inhibitor development. This review focuses on the development of direct surface disruptors and discusses the challenges and opportunities for developing potent YAP/TAZ-TEAD inhibitors for the treatment of cancer.

    Abstract Background: The intensive data typically collected by mobile health (mHealth) apps allows factors associated with persistent use to be investigated, which is an important objective given users' well-known struggles with sustaining healthy behavior.
    Objective: Data from a commercial meditation app (n=14,879; 899,071 total app uses) were analyzed to assess the validity of commonly given habit formation advice to meditate at the same time every day, preferably in the morning.
    Methods: First, the change in probability of meditating in 4 nonoverlapping time windows (morning, midday, evening, and late night) on a given day over the first 180 days after creating a meditation app account was calculated via generalized additive mixed models. Second, users' time of day preferences were calculated as the percentage of all meditation sessions that occurred within each of the 4 time windows. Additionally, the temporal consistency of daily meditation behavior was calculated as the entropy of the timing of app usage sessions. Linear regression was used to examine the effect of time of day preference and temporal consistency on two outcomes: (1) short-term engagement, defined as the number of meditation sessions completed within the sixth and seventh month of a user's account, and (2) long-term use, defined as the days until a user's last observed meditation session.
    Results: Large reductions in the probability of meditation at any time of day were seen over the first 180 days after creating an account, but this effect was smallest for morning meditation sessions (63.4% reduction vs reductions ranging from 67.8% to 74.5% for other times). A greater proportion of meditation in the morning was also significantly associated with better short-term engagement (regression coefficient B=2.76, P<.001) and long-term use (B=50.6, P<.001). The opposite was true for late-night meditation sessions (short-term: B=-2.06, P<.001; long-term: B=-51.7, P=.001). Significant relationships were not found for midday sessions (any outcome) or for evening sessions when examining long-term use. Additionally, temporal consistency in the performance of morning meditation sessions was associated with better short-term engagement (B=-1.64, P<.001) but worse long-term use (B=55.8, P<.001). Similar-sized temporal consistency effects were found for all other time windows.
    Conclusions: Meditating in the morning was associated with higher rates of maintaining a meditation practice with the app. This is consistent with findings from other studies that have hypothesized that the strength of existing morning routines and circadian rhythms may make the morning an ideal time to build new habits. In the long term, less temporal consistency in meditation sessions was associated with more persistent app use, suggesting there are benefits from maintaining flexibility in behavior performance. These findings improve our understanding of how to promote enduring healthy lifestyles and can inform the design of mHealth strategies for maintaining behavior changes.
