Histo-blood group antigens (HBGAs) such as fucosyltransferase (FUT)2 and 3 may act innate host factors that differentially influence susceptibility of individuals their offspring to pediatric enteric infections.
Background: Religiously motivated Bahá'í fasting (BF) is a form of intermittent dry celebrated by abstaining from food and drinks during daylight hours every year in March for 19 consecutive days. Aim: To test the safety effects BF on hydration, metabolism, circadian clock. Methods: Thirty-four healthy volunteers (15 women) participated this prospective, exploratory cohort study. Laboratory examinations were carried out four study visits: before (V0), third week (V1) as well 3 weeks (V3)...
Background Transmission of dengue virus (DENV) from humans to mosquitoes represents a critical component epidemiology. Examinations this process have generally been hampered by lack methods that adequately represent natural acquisition DENV humans. In study, we assessed artificial and blood feeding based on rates infection dissemination within for use in field-based epidemiological cohort study Iquitos, Peru. Methodology/Principal findings Our was implemented, stepwise, between 2011 2015....
As part of a study to investigate drivers dengue virus (DENV) transmission dynamics, this qualitative explored whether DENV-infected residents Iquitos, Peru, considered it acceptable (1) participate in direct mosquito feeding experiments (lab-reared Aedes aegypti mosquitoes fed directly on human volunteers) and (2) provide blood meals indirectly (Ae. drawn from participants by venipuncture). Twelve focus group discussions (FGDs; 94 participants: 82 females 12 males) were conducted January...
In 2012, the U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency Joint Science and Technology Office initiated a program to develop novel point-of-need diagnostic devices for surveillance of emerging infectious diseases including dengue, malaria, plague, melioidosis. Prior distribution observe their correct use among community members in Iquitos, Peru, Phnom Penh, Cambodia, research was conducted to: 1) assess acceptability use, motivation rapid test (RDT) before or instead seeking care at health facility,...
Previvors are becoming more aware of the option risk-reducing salpingectomy with delayed oophorectomy (RRS-DO) to mitigate their risk ovarian cancer. In this qualitative study, we explored clinical and non-clinical factors that impacted previvors' decision-making pursue RRS-DO as a reduction strategy.Semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted previvors transcribed verbatim. Using ATLAS.ti® software, two primary investigators interpreted data through thematic analysis. After coding...
Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) have the potential to identify infectious diseases quickly, minimize disease transmission, and could complement improve surveillance control of vector-borne during outbreaks. The U.S. Defense Threat Reduction Agency’s Joint Science Technology Office (DTRA-JSTO) program set out develop novel point-of-need RDTs for deploy them home use with no training. aim this formative study was address two questions: 1) community members in Iquitos, Peru Phnom Penh, Cambodia...
IMPORTANCE It is unclear whether time-restricted eating (TRE) induces cardiometabolic benefits independently of the reduction in calorie intake and its effects depend on timing window. OBJECTIVE The main objective was to determine 8-hour TRE alters insulin sensitivity an isocaloric setting. secondary compare early (eTRE) vs. late (lTRE) outcomes internal circadian time. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS study a randomized 10-week crossover trial conducted at German Institute Human Nutrition...
Abstract This was a longitudinal observational cohort study to investigate the association of stunting at 24 months age and attained adult height. A 104 Peruvian males (n = 47) females 57) studied from after puberty in rural community Amazon located 15 km southeast urban center Iquitos. Anthropometric measures were made puberty. Height for Age Z (HAZ) Scores calculated compared assess HAZ score 67.7% 54.1% who stunted m (HAZ<-2.0) recovered (HAZ>-2.0) puberty, whereas 6.25% 6.06% not...
