    Abstract Background: Changes in knee loading have been reported after meniscectomy. Knee loading has previously been assessed during jogging and treadmill running rather than overground running, which could give altered results.
    Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to evaluate knee function during overground running and walking after meniscectomy. It was hypothesized that the affected limb would demonstrate higher external knee adduction moment, lower knee flexion moment (KFM), and lower knee rotation moment (KRM) compared with the contralateral limb and with healthy individuals.
    Study design: Controlled laboratory study.
    Methods: Kinematic and kinetic data were collected during running and walking in individuals after a meniscectomy and healthy individuals. Total knee joint moments (TKJM) were calculated from the sagittal, frontal, and transverse knee moments. Isometric quadriceps strength, perceived knee function, and kinesiophobia were also assessed. A mixed linear model compared differences between the affected leg, the contralateral leg, and the healthy leg.
    Results: Data were collected on 20 healthy individuals and 30 individuals after a meniscectomy (mean ± SD, 5.7 ± 2.9 months postsurgery), with 12, 16, and 2 individuals who had medial, lateral, and both medial and lateral meniscectomy, respectively. The affected limb demonstrated lower TKJM (
    Conclusion: After meniscectomy, individuals who sustained a traumatic meniscal injury showed lower TKJM in the affected limb compared with the contralateral limb and healthy individuals. This decrease in TKJM can be attributed to altered knee-loading strategies in the sagittal and transverse planes.
    Clinical relevance: Improving movement strategies, quadriceps strength, and kinesiophobia through rehabilitation approaches will allow individuals to load their knee appropriately when returning to sport.

    Abstract Premise: Plants with stiff, leathery leaves pose a challenge for standard DNA extraction protocols. These tissues are recalcitrant to mechanical disruption via TissueLyser (or analogous devices) and are often high in secondary metabolites. These compounding factors result in low yields, which may be sufficient for PCR amplification but are generally inadequate for genomic applications that require large quantities of high-quality DNA. Cycads in the genus
    Methods and results: Using a DNA extraction kit, we tested three methods of mechanical disruption and examined the differences between stored vs. freshly collected samples and mature vs. senescing leaflets. We found that the manual method of pulverizing tissue yields the highest concentrations of DNA, and that both senescing leaflets and leaflet tissue that has been stored for extended periods yield sufficient DNA for genomic analyses.
    Conclusions: These findings shed light on the feasibility of using senescing leaves and/or tissue that has been stored on silica for long periods of time when attempting to extract large amounts of DNA. We provide here an optimized DNA extraction protocol that can be applied to cycads and other plant groups with tough or rigid leaves.

    Abstract This study aimed to investigate the association between changes in employment precarity and changes in health amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted an online survey of 623 U.S. adults at-risk for cardiovascular disease, which queried respondents on employment, food insecurity, and blood pressure measurements in the Fall of 2020 and retrospectively, in February 2020. Respondents were also queried on perceived stress in the Fall of 2020. We created a multidimensional precarious employment score (PES) using 13 survey indicators, that operationalized the following dimensions of employment precarity (PES range: 0-13): material rewards, working time arrangements, employment stability, workers' rights, collective organization, interpersonal relations, and training opportunities. Using adjusted linear regression models, we investigated the association between a change in the PES and 1) change in systolic blood pressure, 2) change in pulse pressure, 3) change in food insecurity, and 4) perceived stress. Models controlled for race/ethnicity, age, gender, and education. Results indicated that employment precarity was 13 % higher between February and Fall 2020, particularly among women and non-Hispanic Black respondents. A change in the PES was associated with a change in food insecurity (

    Abstract Background: Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy is a frequently undertaken procedure for traumatic meniscal injuries. The location of knee joint degeneration and long-term prognosis differs between knees who have had a medial or lateral meniscectomy. However, there is no evidence comparing knee loading following a medial or lateral meniscectomy during sporting tasks. This study compared knee loading during walking and running between individuals who either had a medial or lateral meniscectomy.
    Methods: Knee kinematic and kinetic data were collected during walking and running in individuals three to twelve months post-surgery. Participants were grouped according to the location of surgery (medial, n = 12, and lateral, n = 16). An independent t-test compared knee biomechanics between the groups and Hedge's g effects sizes were also conducted.
    Results: External knee adduction and knee flexion moments were similar between groups for walking and running with negligible to small effect sizes (effect size, 0.08-0.30). Kinematic (effect size, 0.03-0.22) and spatiotemporal (effect size, 0.02-0.59) outcomes were also similar between the groups.
    Conclusions: The lack of differences in surrogate knee loading variables between medial and lateral meniscectomy groups was unexpected. These findings suggest that combining groups in the short-term period following surgery is applicable. However, the data presented in this study cannot explain the differences in long-term prognosis between medial and lateral meniscectomies.

    Abstract This study aimed to investigate the association between changes in employment precarity and changes in health amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. We conducted an online survey of 623 U.S. adults at-risk for cardiovascular disease, which queried respondents on employment, food insecurity, and blood pressure measurements in the Fall of 2020 and retrospectively, in February 2020. Respondents were also queried on perceived stress in the Fall of 2020. We created a multidimensional precarious employment score (PES) using 13 survey indicators, that operationalized the following dimensions of employment precarity (PES range: 0–13): material rewards, working time arrangements, employment stability, workers’ rights, collective organization, interpersonal relations, and training opportunities. Using adjusted linear regression models, we investigated the association between a change in the PES and 1) change in systolic blood pressure, 2) change in pulse pressure, 3) change in food insecurity, and 4) perceived stress. Models controlled for race/ethnicity, age, gender, and education. Results indicated that employment precarity was 13 % higher between February and Fall 2020, particularly among women and non-Hispanic Black respondents. A change in the PES was associated with a change in food insecurity (β: 0.02; 95 % CI:0.01, 0.03) and higher perceived stress (β: 0.39; 95 % CI:0.25, 0.53). The PES was not associated with a change in systolic blood pressure (β: −0.22; 95 % CI:-0.76, 0.32) nor in pulse pressure (β: −0.33; 95 % CI: −0.73, 0.07). Policy approaches to mitigate the growth in employment precarity, and in turn food insecurity and stress, warrant consideration to prevent widening of health inequities.

    Abstract Stress-mediated activation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and specific stress-induced transcription factors stimulate herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) productive infection, explant-induced reactivation, and immediate early (IE) promoters that drive expression of infected cell protein 0 (ICP0), ICP4, and ICP27. Several published studies concluded the virion tegument protein VP16, ICP0, and/or ICP4 drives early steps of reactivation from latency. Notably, VP16 protein expression was induced in trigeminal ganglionic neurons of Swiss Webster or C57BL/6J mice during early stages of stress-induced reactivation. If VP16 mediates reactivation, we hypothesized stress-induced cellular transcription factors would stimulate its expression. To address this hypothesis, we tested whether stress-induced transcription factors transactivate a VP16

    Abstract The field of psycholinguistics has recently questioned the primacy of word frequency (WF) in influencing word recognition and production, instead focusing on the importance of a word's contextual diversity (CD). WF is operationalised by counting the number of occurrences of a word in a corpus, while a word's CD is a count of the number of contexts that a word occurs in, with repetitions within a context being ignored. Numerous studies have converged on the conclusion that CD is a better predictor of word recognition latency and accuracy than frequency. These findings support a cognitive mechanism based on the principle of likely need over the principle of repetition in lexical organisation. In the current study, we trained the semantic distinctiveness model on communication patterns in social media platforms consisting of over 55-billion-word tokens and examined the ability of theoretically distinct models to explain word recognition latency and accuracy data from over 1 million participants from the Mandera et al. English Crowdsourding Project norms, consisting of approximately 59,000 words across six age bands ranging from ages 10 to 60 years. There was a clear quantitative trend across the age bands, where there is a shift from a social environment-based attention mechanism in the "younger" models, to a clear dominance for a discourse-based attention mechanism as models "aged." This pattern suggests that there is a dynamical interaction between the cognitive mechanisms of lexical organisation and environmental information that emerges across ageing.
