Genetic Screens02:46

Genetic Screens

5.7K
Genetic screens are tools used to identify genes and mutations responsible for phenotypes of interest. Genetic screens help identify individuals or a group of people at risk of developing  genetic diseases and help them with early intervention, targeted therapy, and reproductive options.
Forward genetic screens
Forward or “classical” genetic screens involve creating random mutations in an organism’s DNA using radiation, mutagens, or insertion of additional bases, which...

Attitudes01:54

Attitudes

33.2K
Attitude is our evaluation of a person, an idea, or an object. We have attitudes for many things ranging from products that we might pick up in the supermarket to people around the world to political policies. Typically, attitudes are favorable or unfavorable: positive or negative (Eagly & Chaiken, 1993). And, they have three components: an affective component (feelings), a behavioral component (the effect of the attitude on behavior), and a cognitive component (belief and knowledge;...

The Periodic Table

As early chemists discovered more elements, they realized that various elements could be grouped by their similar chemical behaviors. One such grouping includes lithium (Li), sodium (Na), and potassium (K). All of these elements are shiny, conduct heat and electricity well, and have similar chemical properties. A second grouping includes calcium (Ca), strontium (Sr), and barium (Ba), which also are shiny, good conductors of heat and electricity, and have chemical properties in common. However,...

Bacterial Transformation01:33

Bacterial Transformation

In 1928, bacteriologist Frederick Griffith worked on a vaccine for pneumonia, which is caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae bacteria. Griffith studied two pneumonia strains in mice: one pathogenic and one non-pathogenic. Only the pathogenic strain killed host mice.
Griffith made an unexpected discovery when he killed the pathogenic strain and mixed its remains with the live, non-pathogenic strain. Not only did the mixture kill host mice, but it also contained living pathogenic bacteria that...

In the macroscopic world, objects that are large enough to be seen by the naked eye follow the rules of classical physics. A billiard ball moving on a table will behave like a particle; it will continue traveling in a straight line unless it collides with another ball, or it is acted on by some other force, such as friction. The ball has a well-defined position and velocity or well-defined momentum, p = mv, which is defined by mass m and velocity v at any given moment. This is the typical...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Oncology
  • Preventive Medicine

Background:

  • Recent years have seen significant shifts in established screening mammography protocols.
  • Discrepancies exist among various medical societies regarding optimal screening mammography guidelines.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the current landscape of screening mammography guidelines.
  • To highlight the critical role of mammography in early breast cancer detection and improving patient survival rates.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current screening mammography guidelines from major medical societies.
  • Analysis of the impact of screening mammography on early detection and survival outcomes.

Main Results:

  • Guidelines vary regarding the recommended age for initiating mammography screening.
  • Frequency of recommended mammography screening also differs across guidelines.
  • Mammography remains a vital tool for detecting breast cancer at earlier, more treatable stages.

Conclusions:

  • Navigating updated screening mammography guidelines is essential for healthcare providers and patients.
  • Adherence to appropriate screening protocols can significantly improve breast cancer survival rates.
