A systematic literature review and case study on the social impact of the other women's contributions to education and dialogic feminism.

Feminism has been one of the most important social movements of the last centuries. Current societies have widely recognized their contributions. However, whereas ethnic diversity has been included in the movement, diversity in terms of academic background has not.

Modified neuroimmune processes and emotional behaviour in weaned and late adolescent male and female mice born via caesarean section.

Elective and emergency Caesarean section (C-section) procedures are on the rise, exceeding the recommended guidelines by the World Health Organization. Higher morbidities and long-term health conditions are correlated to C-section deliveries, including neurodevelopmental disorders. During C-section delivery, newborns are not exposed to the vaginal commensal flora, which impedes the early establishment of the gut microbiota.

Associations of language barriers with very preterm children's behavioural and socio-emotional problems across Europe.

Background: Very preterm birth (<32 weeks gestation, VP), immigrant background, and language barriers are all independently associated with a high risk for mental health problems in childhood, but research has neglected the long-term development of immigrant children born VP. We assessed whether behavioural and socio-emotional problems of 5-year-old children born VP growing up across different language contexts in the European Union are associated with an immigrant background and linguistic distance of families' mother tongue (L1) to the host countries' official languages.

Methods: Data are from a population-based cohort including all VP births in 2011/12 in 11 European countries; a total of 3,067 children were followed up at 2 and 5 years of age.

Granzyme B cleaves tenascin-C to release its C-terminal domain in rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disorder characterized by exacerbated joint inflammation. Despite the well-documented accumulation of the serine protease granzyme B (GzmB) in RA patient biospecimens, little is understood pertaining to its role in pathobiology. In the present study, tenascin-C (TNC) - a large, pro-inflammatory extracellular matrix glycoprotein - was identified as a substrate for GzmB in RA.

Residual Ferromagnetic Regions Affecting the First-Order Phase Transition in Off-Stoichiometric Fe-Rh.

Among the magnetocaloric materials featuring first-order phase transitions (FOPT), FeRh is considered as a reference system to study the FOPT because it is a "simple" binary system with a CsCl structure exhibiting a large adiabatic temperature change. Recently, ab initio theory predicted that changes in the Fe/Rh stoichiometry in the vicinity of equiatomic composition strongly influence the FOPT characteristics. However, this theoretical prediction was not clearly verified experimentally.

Roma Women's Role in the Health Preservation of Their Communities during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

The scientific literature has evidenced the stereotypes that affect the Roma people, which are detrimental to their access to the health systems in various countries. With the COVID-19 pandemic, this situation has been aggravated by falsely blaming, on many occasions, the Roma people as spreaders of the virus for supposedly not complying with the norms established by the health authorities. However, it has not been explored in depth what actions have been carried out by the Roma people during the pandemic to cope with this aspect.

Granzyme K mediates IL-23-dependent inflammation and keratinocyte proliferation in psoriasis.

Psoriasis is an inflammatory disease with systemic manifestations that most commonly presents as itchy, erythematous, scaly plaques on extensor surfaces. Activation of the IL-23/IL-17 pro-inflammatory signaling pathway is a hallmark of psoriasis and its inhibition is key to clinical management. Granzyme K (GzmK) is an immune cell-secreted serine protease elevated in inflammatory and proliferative skin conditions.

The early educational environment at five years of age in a European cohort of children born very preterm: challenges and opportunities for research.

Background: Early childhood education offers opportunities for stimulation in multiple developmental domains and its positive impact on long-term outcomes and wellbeing for children is well documented. Few studies have explored early education in children born very preterm (VPT; <32 weeks of gestation) who are at higher risk of neurodevelopmental disorders and poor educational outcomes than their term-born peers. The purpose of the study is to describe and compare the educational environment of children born VPT in European countries at 5 years of age according to the degree of perinatal risk.

Granzyme serine proteases in inflammation and rheumatic diseases.

Granzymes (granule-secreted enzymes) are a family of serine proteases that have been viewed as redundant cytotoxic enzymes since their discovery more than 30 years ago. Predominantly produced by cytotoxic lymphocytes and natural killer cells, granzymes are delivered into the cytoplasm of target cells through immunological synapses in cooperation with the pore-forming protein perforin. After internalization, granzymes can initiate cell death through the cleavage of intracellular substrates.

Discovery of potent inhibitors of α-synuclein aggregation using structure-based iterative learning.

Machine learning methods hold the promise to reduce the costs and the failure rates of conventional drug discovery pipelines. This issue is especially pressing for neurodegenerative diseases, where the development of disease-modifying drugs has been particularly challenging. To address this problem, we describe here a machine learning approach to identify small molecule inhibitors of α-synuclein aggregation, a process implicated in Parkinson's disease and other synucleinopathies.

Granzyme B degrades extracellular matrix and promotes inflammation and choroidal neovascularization.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common retinal neurodegenerative disease among the elderly. Neovascular AMD (nAMD), a leading cause of AMD-related blindness, involves choroidal neovascularization (CNV), which can be suppressed by anti-angiogenic treatments. However, current CNV treatments do not work in all nAMD patients.

Associations between a paternal healthy lifestyle score and its individual components with childhood overweight and obesity.

Background: Maternal healthy lifestyle behaviors during pregnancy have been associated with reduced risk of offspring overweight and obesity (OWOB). However, there has been little investigation, in the context of the Paternal Origins of Health and Disease (POHaD) paradigm, of the potential influence of the paternal lifestyle on offspring OWOB.

Objectives: To describe paternal healthy lifestyle factors around pregnancy and investigate their associations, individually and combined, with offspring risk of OWOB during childhood.

Variations in neonatal mortality of preterm infants with intraparenchymal haemorrhage in Europe: the EPICE cohort.

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate variations in mortality before neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) discharge of infants born preterm with intraparenchymal haemorrhage (IPH) in Europe with a special interest for withdrawing life-sustaining therapy (WLST).

Design: Secondary analysis of the Effective Perinatal Intensive Care in Europe (EPICE) cohort, 2011-2012.

Setting: Nineteen regions in 11 European countries.

Maternal Wellbeing Five Years after a Very Preterm Delivery: Prevalence and Influencing Factors in a European Cohort.

(1) Background: Mothers of very preterm (VPT) infants may experience psychological symptoms compromising long-term emotional wellbeing. This study describes the emotional wellbeing of mothers of five-year-old children born VPT. We assess the association between sociodemographic, perinatal and neonatal characteristics, and the child's health and development at five years old and maternal emotional wellbeing.

Prediction of movement difficulties at 5 years from parent report at 2 years in children born extremely preterm.

Aim: To assess the predictive validity of parent-reported gross motor impairment (GMI) at age 2 years to detect significant movement difficulties at age 5 years in children born extremely preterm.

Method: Data were from 556 children (270 males, 286 females) born at less than 28 weeks' gestation in 2011 to 2012 in 10 European countries. Parent report of moderate/severe GMI was defined as walking unsteadily or unable to walk unassisted at 2 years corrected age.

Contribution of cosmetic ingredients and skin care textures to emotions.

Objective: Emotions play an important role in consumers' perception of a sensory experience. The objective of this work was to investigate the ability of basic skin care formulas (i.e.

Gamified online surveys: Assessing experience with self-determination theory.

We developed four online interfaces supporting citizen participation in decision-making. We included (1) learning loops (LLs), good practice in decision analysis, and (2) gamification, to enliven an otherwise long and tedious survey. We investigated the effects of these features on drop-out rate, perceived experience, and basic psychological needs (BPNs): autonomy, competence, and relatedness, all from self-determination theory.

Tocolysis after preterm prelabor rupture of membranes and 5-year outcomes: a population-based cohort study.

Background: The administration of tocolytics after preterm prelabor rupture of membranes remains a controversial practice. In theory, reducing uterine contractility should delay delivery and allow for optimal antenatal management, thereby reducing the risks for prematurity and adverse consequences over the life course. However, tocolysis may be associated with neonatal death or long-term adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes, mainly related to prolonged fetal exposure to intrauterine infection or inflammation.

Live-cell three-dimensional single-molecule tracking reveals modulation of enhancer dynamics by NuRD.

To understand how the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase (NuRD) complex regulates enhancers and enhancer-promoter interactions, we have developed an approach to segment and extract key biophysical parameters from live-cell three-dimensional single-molecule trajectories. Unexpectedly, this has revealed that NuRD binds to chromatin for minutes, decompacts chromatin structure and increases enhancer dynamics. We also uncovered a rare fast-diffusing state of enhancers and found that NuRD restricts the time spent in this state.

Three-dimensional molecular cartography of human cerebral organoids revealed by double-barcoded spatial transcriptomics.

Spatially resolved transcriptomics is revolutionizing our understanding of complex tissues, but scaling these approaches to multiple tissue sections and three-dimensional tissue reconstruction remains challenging and cost prohibitive. In this work, we present a low-cost strategy for manufacturing molecularly double-barcoded DNA arrays, enabling large-scale spatially resolved transcriptomics studies. We applied this technique to spatially resolve gene expression in several human brain organoids, including the reconstruction of a three-dimensional view from multiple consecutive sections, revealing gene expression heterogeneity throughout the tissue.

Apgar Score and Neurodevelopmental Outcomes at Age 5 Years in Infants Born Extremely Preterm.

Importance: The Apgar score is used worldwide as an assessment tool to estimate the vitality of newborns in their first minutes of life. Its applicability to estimate neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants born extremely preterm (EPT; <28 weeks' gestation) is not well established.

Objective: To investigate the association between the Apgar score and neurodevelopmental outcomes in infants born EPT.

Mice prenatally exposed to valproic acid do not show autism-related disorders when fed with polyunsaturated fatty acid-enriched diets.

Dietary supplementations with n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) have been explored in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) but their efficiency and potential in ameliorating cardinal symptoms of the disease remain elusive. Here, we compared a n-3 long-chain (LC) PUFA dietary supplementation (n-3 supp) obtained from fatty fish with a n-3 PUFA precursor diet (n-3 bal) obtained from plant oils in the valproic acid (VPA, 450 mg/kg at E12.5) ASD mouse model starting from embryonic life, throughout lactation and until adulthood.
