Inequities in Intimate Partner Homicide: Social Determinants of Health Mediate Racial/Ethnic Disparities.

Introduction: Intimate partner violence accounts for up to one half of all homicides of women in the U.S. Rates of intimate partner homicide are associated with both race/ethnicity and social determinants of health, but their relative contribution is incompletely understood.

Gut fungal diversity across different life stages of the onion fly Delia antiqua.

A significant number of microorganisms inhabit the intestinal tract or the body surface of insects. While the majority of research on insect microbiome interaction has mainly focused on bacteria, of late multiple studies have been acknowledging the importance of fungi and have started reporting the fungal communities as well. In this study, high-throughput sequencing was used to compare the diversity of intestinal fungi in Delia antiqua (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) at different growth stages, and effect of differential fungi between adjacent life stages on the growth and development of D.

Signal flow in the NMDA receptor-dependent phosphoproteome regulates postsynaptic plasticity for aversive learning.

Structural plasticity of dendritic spines in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) is crucial for learning from aversive experiences. Activation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) stimulates Ca-dependent signaling that leads to changes in the actin cytoskeleton, mediated by the Rho family of GTPases, resulting in postsynaptic remodeling essential for learning. We investigated how phosphorylation events downstream of NMDAR activation drive the changes in synaptic morphology that underlie aversive learning.

Pramipexole Hyperactivates the External Globus Pallidus and Impairs Decision-Making in a Mouse Model of Parkinson's Disease.

In patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), dopamine replacement therapy with dopamine D2/D3 receptor agonists induces impairments in decision-making, including pathological gambling. The neurobiological mechanisms underlying these adverse effects remain elusive. Here, in a mouse model of PD, we investigated the effects of the dopamine D3 receptor (D3R)-preferring agonist pramipexole (PPX) on decision-making.

Shifts in reproductive strategies in the evolutionary trajectory of plant lineages.

Understanding the maintenance and shift in reproductive strategies is a fundamental question in evolutionary research. Although many efforts have been made to compare different reproductive strategies, the association between reproductive strategies and lineage divergence is largely unknown. To explore the impact of different reproductive strategies on lineage divergence, we investigated the evolution of clonality in Saxifraga sect.

Detoxification of phoxim by a gut bacterium of Delia antiqua.

The presence of certain associated bacteria has been reported to increase pest resistance to pesticides, which poses a serious threat to food security and the environment. Researches on the above microbe-derived pesticide resistance would bring innovative approaches for pest management. Investigations into the phoxim resistance of Delia antiqua, one Liliaceae crop pests, revealed the contribution of a phoxim-degrading gut bacterium, D39, to this resistance.

Wheat rhizosphere dynamics of Trichoderma gamsii A5MH and suppression of a Pythium root rot-Fusarium crown rot disease complex over two consecutive cropping seasons.

Aims: Determine the wheat rhizosphere competence of Trichoderma gamsii strain A5MH and in planta suppression of the Pythium root and Fusarium crown rot pathogens Globisporangium irregulare and Fusarium pseudograminearum.

A sensor array based on a nanozyme with polyphenol oxidase activity for the identification of tea polyphenols and Chinese green tea.

Green tea is popular among consumers because of its high nutritional value and unique flavor. There is often a strong correlation among the type of tea, its quality level and the price. Therefore, the rapid identification of tea types and the judgment of tea quality grades are particularly important.

Rearing Axenic Delia antiqua with Half-Fermented Sterile Diets.

Axenic insects are obtained from sterile artificial rearing systems using sterile media. These insects, characterized by their small size, short growth cycle, and low feed requirements, are ideal for studying the relationship between microorganisms and hosts. The gut microbiota significantly influences the physiological characteristics of insect hosts, and introducing specific strains into axenic insects provides a method for verifying gut microbial functions.

Advanced child tax credit payments and national child abuse hotline contacts, 2019-2022.

Background: Children in households experiencing poverty are disproportionately exposed to maltreatment. Income support policies have been associated with reductions in child abuse and neglect. The advance child tax credit (CTC) payments may reduce child maltreatment by improving the economic security of some families.

Comparative metaproteomics reveal co-contribution of onion maggot and its gut microbiota to phoxim resistance.

Pesticide resistance inflicts significant economic losses on a global scale each year. To address this pressing issue, substantial efforts have been dedicated to unraveling the resistance mechanisms, particularly the newly discovered microbiota-derived pesticide resistance in recent decades. Previous research has predominantly focused on investigating microbiota-derived pesticide resistance from the perspective of the pest host, associated microbes, and their interactions.

Effects of different cultivation media on root bacterial community characteristics of greenhouse tomatoes.

Tomato, as a typical greenhouse crop, is commonly first planted as seedlings in a variety of substrates before being transplanted into soil. However, there is rare research on the characteristics of the bacterial community in tomato roots under this planting mode. In this study, tomatoes were planted in pots containing three different cultivation media, including soil and two types of substrates in a greenhouse, followed by a transplanting treatment.
