Model of ever-expanding universe confirmed by dark energy probe
The standard theory of cosmology—which says 95% of the universe is made up of an unknown energy we can’t see—has passed its strictest test yet. The first results released from an instrument designed to study the cosmic effects of this mysterious dark energy confirm that, to the nearest 1%, the universe has evolved over the past 11 billion years just as theorists have predicted. The findings, presented today in a series of talks at the American Physical Society meeting in Sacramento, California, and the Moriond meeting in Italy, as well as in a set of preprints posted to arXiv, come from the Dark Energ...

Epidemiological and clinical description of patients with oropharyngeal cancer treated in a public oncology referral hospital in Chile

This change justifies the need to adapt health policies and conduct research that considers the characteristics of this new epidemiological profile.PMID:38566759 | PMC:PMC10984838 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2024.1685 (Source: Ecancermedicalscience)

Variants in < em > BRCA1/2 < /em > in a hospital-based cohort in Chile and national literature review
CONCLUSION: Our findings advocate for the integration of NGS multi-gene panel testing as a primary strategy within our population. This approach allows for the comprehensive assessment of single nucleotide variants and CNVs in BRCA1/2, alongside other high and moderately penetrant genes associated with breast and ovarian cancer.PMID:38566764 | PMC:PMC10984842 | DOI:10.3332/ecancer.2024.1683 (Source: Ecancermedicalscience)
