Association between home food preparation skills and behaviour, and consumption of ultra-processed foods
BACKGROUND: 'Ultra-processed foods' (UPF) have been industrially processed and tend to be higher in saturated fat, sodium and sugar than other foods. There is some evidence that consumption of UPF is associated with overweight...
Time course of functional changes in locomotor and sensory systems after spinal cord lesions in lamprey.
Changes in motor and sensory properties occur either side of spinal cord lesion sites from lower vertebrates to humans. We have previously examined these changes in the lamprey, a model system for studying recovery after spinal...
Noncanonical mitochondrial unfolded protein response impairs placental oxidative phosphorylation in early-onset preeclampsia.
Hong Wa Yung, Francesca Colleoni, Emilie Dommett, Tereza Cindrova-Davies, John Kingdom, Andrew J Murray, Graham J Burton

Preeclampsia (PE) is a dangerous complication of pregnancy, especially when it presents at <34 wk of gestation (PE < 34 wk). It is a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality and also increases the risk of...

Climate-Smart Cocoa in Ghana
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) aims to transform and reorient farming systems to decrease greenhouse gas emissions, boost adaptive capacity, and improve productivity while supporting incomes and, ostensibly, food security. In...
Institutional complexity and paradox theory
Organizational success increasingly depends on leaders’ abilities to address competing demands simultaneously. Scholars have applied both institutional theory and paradox theory to better understand the nature and responses to...
A crosssectional analysis of Facebook comments to study public perception of a new diagnostic test called the Cytosponge.
Social media provides a useful platform for informal discussions about healthcare. Acceptability is key to the uptake of diagnostic devices and this can be difficult to gauge from questionnaires and qualitative studies. The aim...
A temperature-dependent multilayer model for direct current carrying HTS coated-conductors under perpendicular AC magnetic fields
Abstract
When a type II superconductor carrying a direct current is subjected to a perpendicular oscillating magnetic field, a direct current (DC) voltage will appear. This voltage...
Restoring mitochondrial DNA copy number preserves mitochondrial function and delays vascular aging in mice.
Kirsty Foote, Johannes Reinhold, Emma PK Yu, Nichola L Figg, Alison Finigan, Michael P Murphy, Martin R Bennett
Jun 28, 2018
Aging is the largest risk factor for cardiovascular disease, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying vascular aging remain unclear. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage is linked to aging, but whether mtDNA damage or mitochondrial...
Adverse Childhood Experiences and Alcohol Consumption in Midlife and Early Old-Age.
AIMS: To examine the individual and cumulative effects of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on alcohol consumption in midlife and early old-age, and the role of ACEs in 10-year drinking trajectories across midlife. METHODS...
The F1000Research Antibody Validation Article Collection
Well validated antibodies are crucial to progress in a wide range of life science disciplines, but validating an antibody is a complex and ongoing process. Antibody validation is often carried out as preliminary work to a...
Intrinsic flexibility of porous materials
Framework materials have structures containing strongly bonded polyhedral
groups of atoms connected through their vertices. Typically the energy cost for
variations of the inter-polyhedral geometry is much less than the...

Are in-hospital COVID-19-related mortality and morbidity in pregnancy associated with gestational age?
OBJECTIVE: Pregnancy involves dynamic changes in the maternal immune system, thus potentially affecting women's response to infection. The aim of this study was to investigate whether gestational age at the time of severe acute...
Impacts of changes in environmental exposures and health behaviours due to the COVID-19 pandemic on cardiovascular and mental health
Sarah Koch, Sasha Khomenko, Marta Cirach, Mònica Ubalde-Lopez, Sacha Baclet, Carolyn Daher, Laura Hidalgo, Mare Lõhmus, Debora Rizzuto, Romain Rumpler, Yusak Susilo, Siddharth Venkataraman, Sandra Wegener, Gregory A Wellenius, James Woodcock, Mark Nieuwenhuijsen
May 09, 2022
Responses to COVID-19 altered environmental exposures and health behaviours associated with non-communicable diseases. We aimed to (1) quantify changes in nitrogen dioxide (NO2), noise, physical activity, and greenspace visits...
Dendritic Cells Charged with Apoptotic Tumor Cells Induce Long-Lived Protective CD4+ and CD8+ T Cell Immunity against B16 Melanoma
Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent APCs and attractive vectors for cancer immunotherapy. Using the B16 melanoma, a poorly immunogenic experimental tumor that expresses low levels of MHC class I products, we investigated whether...

Identification of proliferating dendritic cell precursors in mouse blood
While it has been known that dendritic cells arise from proliferating precursors in situ, it has been difficult to identify progenitors in culture. We find that aggregates of growing dendritic cells develop in cultures of mouse...

Microwave synthesis of LTN framework zeolite with no organic structure directing agents
We present a new microwave synthesis method of Linde Type N zeolite without organic structure directing agents (OSDAs). Linde Type N zeolite (framework type LTN) is one of the most complex zeolite structures with a very large...
Effect of mono- and divalent extra-framework cations on the structure and accessibility of porosity in chabazite zeolites
Chabazite (CHA), one of the most common zeolite framework types, has a remarkable capacity to accommodate a wide range of different cations within the unique CHA framework. This has led to CHA being applied extensively in ion...
How outbreaks in different settings contribute to the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in the era of “living with COVID”
COVID-19 continues to impact different parts of the world. In countries where the “living with COVID” strategy is adopted and endemic is likely to be declared, radical public health measures, such as lockdowns, have been and...
