Currently, no data are available using standardized instruments for evaluating the postpartum mental health of women with previous bariatric surgery. The aim of this pilot study was to assess postpartum mental health in women following bariatric surgery and to establish appropriate tools for a prospective registry study in the future. In this survey, the mental health of 22 women during the first weeks postpartum was examined (T1) and their status at least 6 months after childbirth was prospectively assessed (T2).

The accurate estimation of methane generation in landfills is crucial for effective greenhouse gas management and energy recovery, requiring site-specific assessments due to the inherent variability in waste composition and properties before and after disposal. This study investigates the uncertainties associated with methane generation predictions by employing a combination of stoichiometric methods, Biochemical Methane Potential (BMP) assays, and Bayesian inference. Fresh and aged (1-year-old and 5-year-old) samples collected in the tropical Saravan dump site in Gilan, Iran, were used to evaluate the waste's methane generation potential and degradation rate in the field.

Estimating the time since death, or the postmortem interval (PMI), is a significant component of forensic anthropological analysis when human remains are discovered. Despite decades of research, methods for providing an estimate of the PMI with known error rates are still absent from applied medicolegal forensic work, which prompts the necessity for a critical examination of the state of the field. This review details the history of how forensic anthropology emerged from the broader discipline of biological anthropology, with a specific focus on how forensic anthropologists came to be understood as suitable experts for estimating the PMI.

Background: The indications for surgical treatment in females with anterior anus remain controversial. We analysed the clinical outcomes in two groups: those who underwent surgery and those who received conservative treatment. We propose a standardized assessment, focusing on functional aspects, to determine the necessity of surgical intervention.

Background: The responses of the infant gut microbiota to infection significantly disrupt the natural intrahost evolutionary processes of the microbiome. Here, we collected a 16-month longitudinal cohort of infant gut microbiomes affected by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Then, we developed a multicriteria approach to identify core interaction network driving community dynamics under environmental disturbances, which we termed the Conserved Variated Interaction Group (CVIgroup).
