Analyzing bacterial networks and interactions in skin and gills of Sparus aurata with microalgae-based additive feeding.

Sci Rep

December 2024

Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Sciences, CEI·MAR-International Campus of Excellence in Marine Science, University of Malaga, Málaga, Spain.

The inclusion of microalgae in functional fish diets has a notable impact on the welfare, metabolism and physiology of the organism. The microbial communities associated with the fish are directly influenced by the host's diet, and further understanding the impact on mucosal microbiota is needed. This study aimed to analyze the microbiota associated with the skin and gills of Sparus aurata fed a diet containing 10% microalgae.

Cognitive load (CL) is one of the leading factors moderating states and performance among drivers. Heavily increased CL may contribute to the development of mental stress. Averaged heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) indices are shown to reflect CL levels in different tasks.

Since the inception of medical assistance in dying (MAiD) in Canada in 2016, the health care system continues to refine MAiD delivery models. The frameworks informing nursing practice related to MAiD are subject to variability across the country, leading to nursing role ambiguity and barriers in relational practice. Using critical incident technique, this qualitative research study explores the experiences of 7 Canadian nurses engaging with patients seeking MAiD.

Real-Time Tractography-Assisted Neuronavigation for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation.

Hum Brain Mapp

January 2025

Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering, School of Science, Aalto University, Espoo, Finland.

State-of-the-art navigated transcranial magnetic stimulation (nTMS) systems can display the TMS coil position relative to the structural magnetic resonance image (MRI) of the subject's brain and calculate the induced electric field. However, the local effect of TMS propagates via the white-matter network to different areas of the brain, and currently there is no commercial or research neuronavigation system that can highlight in real time the brain's structural connections during TMS. This lack of real-time visualization may overlook critical inter-individual differences in brain connectivity and does not provide the opportunity to target brain networks.

Background: The association between different anthropometric indices, including body mass index (BMI), a body shape index (ABSI), lipid accumulation product (LAP), visceral adiposity index (VAI), waist circumference-triglyceride index (WTI), weight-adjusted waist index (WWI), body roundness index (BRI) and the prevalence of overactive bladder (OAB) is unclear. This investigation aims to explore the association among different anthropometric indices and overactive bladder as well as confounding variables.

Methods: Data were obtained from the USA National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data set between 2005 and 2018, and 15231 participants were included in the study.
