Climate change, migration, and health: perspectives from Latin America and the Caribbean.

This article delves into the complex relationship between climate change, migration patterns, and health outcomes in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC). While the severe impact of climate change on health in LAC is widely acknowledged, the article sheds light on the often-overlooked multiple effects on migration and the well-being of migrants. These impacts encompass poverty, food and water insecurity, and adverse physical and mental health outcomes.

Elevated CO in dynamic controlled atmosphere storage: Impact on anaerobic metabolism and overall quality of 'Maxi Gala' apples.

Background: The present study investigated the effects of high CO partial pressures (pCO) in dynamic controlled atmosphere monitored by respiratory quotient (DCA-RQ 1.3) on the anaerobic metabolism compounds, physiological disorders and overall quality of 'Maxi Gala' apples after 9 months of storage (2.0 °C), plus 7 days of shelf life (20 °C).

Selective IgM deficiency: evaluation of 75 patients according to different diagnostic criteria.

Selective IgM deficiency (SIgMD) has recently been included in the inborn errors of immunity classification. SIgMD has conflicting diagnostic criteria and diverse clinical and immunological findings. We aimed to assess the clinical and laboratory profiles of patients with SIgMD and to compare the data of patients diagnosed using two inclusion criteria.

High genetic structure of Spondias mombin in Brazil revealed with SNP markers.

Spondias mombin L. (Anacardiaceae) is an arboreal and allogamous fruit tree native from southern Mexico to southeastern Brazil, with great potential for economic exploitation. This study aimed to evaluate the structure and genomic diversity of yellow mombin accessions collected in nine locations in Brazil using Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) markers.
