Scientists identify hidden signals in RNAs that control protein synthesis
Scientists have long known that RNA encodes instructions to make proteins. The building blocks that comprise RNA-;A, U, C, and Gs-;form a blueprint for the protein-making machinery in cells.

Medicare Star Ratings
The star rating shows how well a dialysis center delivers care compared to the national average, based on Medicare data. Each dialysis center receives a rating between 1 and 5 stars, with 3 stars representing the national average. A five-star rating means a center has quality of care that is considered 'much above average' compared to other dialysis facilities. A one or two-star rating means that measured health outcomes for that center were below average. The star rating is part of Medicare's work to make data on the quality of patient care easier to understand and use. Patient survey results aren't included in the star rating.
