studies with have demonstrated the antiparasitic activity of , attributed to its naphthoquinones. This study reports on pro-inflammatory changes in mice infected with and correlates these changes with parasitemia and survival. The ethanol extract of (EEEp) was fractionated under reflux to obtain the dichloromethane fraction (FDMEp) and isolated compounds from , relating these to survival time and parasitemia.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAgricultural insecticide usage presents a complex challenge, particularly when addressing hidden targets such as concealed pest species. Typically, insecticide spraying targets either the host plant or the soil substrate, reaching the target when the pests move or feed, yet their vulnerability when concealed remains low. This study delves into the often-obscure effects of insecticides on hidden herbivore species, focusing specifically on the diamide insecticide chlorantraniliprole and its impact on the concealed insect herbivore, the coffee leaf miner Leucoptera coffeella (Guérin-Mèneville & Perrottet) (Lepidoptera: Lyonetidae).

Background: The consumption of ultra-processed foods (UPFs) has increased worldwide, including among children. Maternal schooling has been associated with children's UPF consumption. The present study examined the interaction between maternal schooling and child age in the association with UPF consumption in Brazilian children <5 years.

Article Synopsis
- * The study recorded 14,390 cases, showing higher prevalence among women (53.75%) and older adults (57.60%), with a notable increase in hospitalization rates over time across various age groups.
- * Analysis revealed a positive spatial correlation between DM hospitalizations and factors like per capita income and diabetic foot examinations by nurses, indicating DM remains a significant public health issue in the region.
Article Synopsis
- Patchy data on litter decomposition in wetlands limits understanding of carbon storage, prompting a global study involving over 180 wetlands across multiple countries and climates.
- The study found that freshwater wetlands and tidal marshes had more organic matter remaining after decay, indicating better potential for carbon preservation in these areas.
- Elevated temperatures positively affect the decomposition of resistant organic matter, with projections suggesting an increase in decay rates by 2050; however, the impact varies by ecosystem type and highlights the need to recognize both local and global factors influencing carbon storage.
