Living on a farm, contact with farm animals and pets, and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

These findings add additional evidence to the hypothesis that regular contact with animals in early childhood is inversely associated with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Epidemiology of intussusception before and after rotavirus vaccine introduction in Fiji

The incidence of intussusception pre-rotavirus vaccine in Fiji is low

Beyond the reactive-proactive dichotomy: Rage, revenge, reward, and recreational aggression predict early high school bully and bully/victim status

We discuss the implications of addressing Revenge and Recreation, as well as Reward and Rage aggression motives, for bullying prevention and intervention strategies

Group A Streptococcus M1T1 Intracellular Infection of Primary Tonsil Epithelial Cells Dampens Levels of Secreted IL-8 Through the Action of SpyCEP

Our results suggest that intracellular infection with the pathogenic GAS M1T1 clone induces a strong pro-inflammatory response in primary tonsil epithelial cells

Using acute tryptophan depletion to investigate predictors of treatment response in adolescents with major depressive disorder

The major hypothesis of this study is that acute tryptophan depletion will be negatively associated with mood and cognitive functioning

Socioeconomic status and early child development in East Asia and the Pacific: The protective role of parental engagement in learning activities

Results indicated the existence of SES gradients in early development in multiple domains in China, Mongolia, Papua New Guinea, Timor-Leste, and Vanuatu

An in silico pipeline to filter the Toxoplasma gondii proteome for proteins that could traffic to the host cell nucleus and influence host cell epigenetic regulation

To identify genes with putative epigenetic functions, we developed an in silico pipeline to interrogate the T. gondii proteome of 8313 proteins

Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency (ARSA-PD), hypertension and chronic renal disease in Aboriginal Australians

Traits associated with CVD, CRD and T2D in Aboriginal Australians provide novel insight into function of Arylsulphatase A Pseudodeficiency variants

Conserved temporal ordering of promoter activation implicates common mechanisms governing the immediate early response across cell types and stimuli

We obtain a set of 57 candidate immediate early genes possessing promoters that consistently drive a rapid but transient increase in expression over time

Independent and combined effects of airway remodelling and allergy on airway responsiveness

There was a positive relationship between the thickness of the airway smooth muscle layer with airway responsiveness, which was shifted upward in the presence of allergy
