Advances in Mechanisms of Anaphylaxis in Wheat Allergy: Utility of Rodent Models.

Wheat is a staple and nutritious food that is consumed globally. However, it is identified as a major allergenic food because of its capacity to trigger life-threatening systemic anaphylaxis. The specific mechanisms that underlie this systemic anaphylaxis in wheat allergy are incompletely understood.

Delayed effects of heavy resistance or ballistic priming on sprint and agility in elite U19 football.

Background: In elite football, optimization of physical performance increases athlete performance. Sprint and change of directional performance can be improved by previously conducting a priming protocol. However, it is unknown if this priming-induced performance enhancement is long-lasting.

Does deciding not to participate in a lifestyle intervention for children with obesity affect the long-term weight change?

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate whether long-term weight change in children with obesity is affected after deciding not to participate in a lifestyle intervention.

Methods: This observational study included 713 children (aged 5-8 years) with obesity living in Aarhus, Denmark, of whom 157 decided not to participate in a community-based lifestyle intervention between 2010 and 2020, and 556 were never invited to participate (i.e.

Weight development in children with obesity without treatment: A Danish cohort study with long-term follow-up.

Introduction: Limited insight exists into the weight development in children with obesity not receiving obesity treatment.

Methods: This cohort study included 467 Danish children aged 5-10 years with obesity (iso-BMI >30 kg/m) not receiving treatment. Data from mandatory health check-ups on school-children's height and weight (converted to BMI z-scores) were merged with the Danish National Registries.

Four novel nontuberculous mycobacteria species: sp. nov., sp. nov., sp. nov. and sp. nov. revived from a historical Danish strain collection.

Four novel nontuberculous mycobacteria were discovered from a historical strain collection at the International Reference Laboratory of Mycobacteriology at Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen, Denmark. Phylogenetic analysis combining the 16S , internal transcribed spacer and 23S elements, as well as a single-copy core-gene (, , and ) analysis of these freeze-dried mycobacteria, clinically isolated from gastric lavage samples between 1948 and 1955, showed to be associated with type strains grouping within the Terra and Fortuitum-Vaccae clade. Phenotypic characteristics, biochemical properties and fatty acid and mycolic acid profiles supported the classification as novel strains.
