Macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia, M. tetraphylla and hybrids) is an Australian native nut crop has a significant economic value in the food industries worldwide. Long juvenility along with traditional breeding strategies impede quick genetic improvement of this crop. The existing cultivars constitute only second to fourth generation wild germplasm rainforest. utilisation molecular markers for genomic selection genome-wide association studies may accelerate gains. Identification robust,...
Objectives. To determine whether the COVID-19 pandemic affected e-cigarette use among young people in United States. Methods. Data came from a weekly cross-sectional online survey of youths and adults (aged 15–24 years). Logistic regression analyses measured odds past-30-day (n = 5752) following widespread stay-at-home directives (March 14–June 29, 2020), compared with pre‒COVID-19 period (January 1–March 13, 2020). subsample current users 779) examined factors associated reduced orders....
Background Early in the COVID-19 pandemic, e-cigarette use significantly declined among young people due, part, to losing access through social sources. As pandemic progressed, adolescents and adults gained opportunities resume contact with peers. This study sought determine whether has returned pre-pandemic levels adults. Methods Data were drawn from a cross-sectional weekly survey of (aged 15–17) 18–24) (N = 37,331). Logistic regression analyses measured odds past 30-day respondents...
The Pleiades Promoter Project integrates genomewide bioinformatics with large-scale knockin mouse production and histological examination of expression patterns to develop MiniPromoters related tools designed study treat the brain by directed gene expression. Genes interest are subjected bioinformatic analysis delineate candidate regulatory regions, which then incorporated into a panel compact human drive regions cell types interest. Using single-copy, homologous-recombination “knockins” in...
Abstract Background Individuals with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of depression and anxiety, which correlated IBD disease activity reduced quality life. However, the impact mental health on pregnant persons barriers to care remain less clear. Aims To explore associations between health, life, addressing concerns in IBD. Methods We conducted anonymous, cross-sectional survey patients. Data collected included demographics, via modified Harvey Bradshaw Index (mHBI)...
Abstract Background Preeclampsia, characterized as high blood pressure and end organ dysfunction in pregnancy, is the second leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk developing severe preeclampsia. While there emerging evidence that prevention low dose aspirin (LDA) safe pregnant patients IBD, patient physician perceptions LDA use remain unclear. Aims To examine Canadian on for preeclampsia people IBD. Methods This a...
Abstract Background Low-dose aspirin (LDA) prophylaxis is recommended for pregnant patients who are at high risk of developing preeclampsia. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) a factor preeclampsia, however, our understanding LDA use on activity in with IBD remains limited. Aims To evaluate the effect clinical outcomes and IBD. Methods Pregnant followed Mount Sinai Hospital from January 2017 to December 2022 were identified. We analyzed baseline characteristics without use. Clinical included...
Abstract Background Biologics are an important therapy for patients with moderate to severe IBD. These include Ustekinumab (UST) – anti-IL-12/23, and the newer biologic Risankizumab (RIS) anti-IL23. For UST, PIANO registry some cohort studies found no significant difference in maternal/neonatal outcomes compared controls. However, EPI-MERES increase likelihood of small gestational age births, one study reported a slower initial postnatal growth rate in-utero exposed infants. RIS currently...
Abstract Background Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes Crohn’s (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by chronic intestinal inflammation. Since IBD often diagnosed in young adulthood, many people will have at the time of pregnancy breastfeeding. Chronic inflammation can cause severe nutritional deficiencies; however, it unclear whether nutrient deficiencies during postpartum affect patients with IBD. Aims To investigate dietary patterns breastfeeding mothers...
As part of a larger project to sequence the Populus genome and generate genomic resources for this emerging model tree, we constructed physical map genome, representing one few such maps an undomesticated, highly heterozygous plant species. The map, consisting 2802 contigs, was from fingerprinted bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones. represents approximately 9.4-fold coverage which has been estimated assembly be 485 +/- 10 Mb in size. BAC ends were sequenced assist long-range...
Breeding for new macadamia cultivars with high nut yield is expensive in terms of time, labour and cost. Most trees set nuts after four to five years, candidate varieties breeding are evaluated at least eight years various traits. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) promising methods reduce evaluation selection cycles by identifying genetic markers linked key traits, potentially enabling early through marker-assisted selection. This study used 295 progeny from 32 full-sib families 29...
