Social network dynamics, infant loss, and gut microbiota composition in female Colobus vellerosus during time periods with alpha male challenges

Author(s): Samartino S; Christie D; Penna A; Sicotte P; Ting N; Wikberg E;

The gut microbiota of group-living animals is strongly influenced by their social interactions, but it is unclear how it responds to social instability. We investigated whether social instability associated with the arrival of new males and challenges to the alpha male position could explain differences in the gut microbiota in adult female Colobus veller ...

Systematic review of seizure-onset patterns in stereo-electroencephalography: Current state and future directions

Author(s): Abdallah C; Mansilla D; Minato E; Grova C; Beniczky S; Frauscher B;

Objective: Increasing evidence suggests that the seizure-onset pattern (SOP) in stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) is important for localizing the "true" seizure onset. Specifically, SOPs with low-voltage fast activity (LVFA) are associated with seizure-free outcome (Engel I). However, several classifications and various terms corresponding to the same ...

Non-invasive paper-based sensors containing rare-earth-doped nanoparticles for the detection of D-glucose

Author(s): López-Peña G; Ortiz-Mansilla E; Arranz A; Bogdan N; Manso-Silván M; Martín Rodríguez E;

Today, diabetes mellitus is one of the most common diseases that affects the population on a worldwide scale. Patients suffering from this disease are required to control their blood-glucose levels several times a day through invasive methods such as piercing their fingers. Our NaGdF4: 5% Er3+, 3% Nd3+ nanoparticles demonstrate a remarkable ability to det ...

The Intuitive Eating Scale-3: Development and psychometric evaluation

Author(s): Tylka TL; Maïano C; Fuller-Tyszkiewicz M; Linardon J; Burnette CB; Todd J; Swami V;

Intuitive eating has been found to protect against disordered eating and preserve well-being. Yet, there are methodological (length), conceptual (inconsideration of medical, value-based, and access-related reasons for food consumption), and psychometric (item wording) concerns with its most common measure, the Intuitive Eating Scale-2 (IES-2). To address ...

Inoculation of chromium-tolerant bacterium LBA108 to enhance resistance in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and combined remediation of chromium-contaminated soil

Author(s): Zhang H; Wang H; Tan A; Zhang L; Yao H; You X; Chen Z;

Cr(VI) has been a carcinogen for organisms and a hazard to human health throughout the food chain. To explore a cost-effective and efficient method for removing Cr(VI), a Cr-resistant strain named LBA108 was isolated from the soil of a molybdenum-lead mining area. It was identified as Microbacterium through biochemical tests and 16S rDNA sequence analysis ...
