Advantages of breastfeeding for the mother-infant dyad by Zuzanna Chęcińska-Maciejewska, Andrzej Ciborek, Hanna Krauss, Magdalena Gibas-Dorna

“…Modified milk feeding is available when breastfeeding is impossible or unwilling; however, it cannot offer as many vital nutritional and health bene­fits as human milk. Although breastfeeding is highly recommended by the World Health Organization and scientific associations as the best and optimal nutrition during the first months of life, some mothers still decide to choose infant formula as an acceptable and safe alternative. …”

A phytotherapeutic approach to hinder the resistance against clindamycin by MRSA: in vitro and in silico studies by Amal Mayyas, Ali Al-Samydai, Nehaya Al-Karablieh, Waleed A Zalloum, Deniz Al-Tawalbeh, Farah Al-Mamoori, Rula A. Amr, Hamdi Al Nsairat, Simone Carradori, Lidia Kamal Al-Halaseh, Talal Aburjai

“…A synergistic test with clindamycin was performed, and molecular docking studies evaluated the interaction between a key compound (trans-cinnamaldehyde) and MRSA protein.Results EOs from Cinnamomum verum, Rosmarinus officinalis, Salvia officinalis, and Thymus vulgaris demonstrated significant inhibitory and synergistic activities against MRSA, standard strain, and human clinical isolates. Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectroscopy identified trans-cinnamaldehyde, eucalyptol, and thymol as prominent antibacterial compounds. …”

PPARγ and Its Agonists in Chronic Kidney Disease by Yuhua Ma, Manman Shi, Yuxin Wang, Jian Liu

“…Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is one of the ligand-activated transcription factor superfamily members and is globally expressed in human tissues. Its agonists such as thiazolidinediones (TZDs) have been applied as effective antidiabetic drugs as they control insulin sensitivity in multiple metabolic tissues. …”

The Drosophila homologue of the amyloid precursor protein is a conserved modulator of Wnt PCP signaling. by Alessia Soldano, Zeynep Okray, Pavlina Janovska, Kateřina Tmejová, Elodie Reynaud, Annelies Claeys, Jiekun Yan, Zeynep Kalender Atak, Bart De Strooper, Jean-Maurice Dura, Vítězslav Bryja, Bassem A Hassan

“…Moreover, we find that APPL is a modulator of the Wnt-PCP pathway required for axonal outgrowth, but not cell polarity. Molecularly, both human APP and fly APPL form complexes with PCP receptors, thus suggesting that APPs are part of the membrane protein complex upstream of PCP signaling. …”

I’ve just seen a face: further search for face pareidolia in chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) by Masaki Tomonaga

“…This study investigated the role of topdown control in face detection in chimpanzees.MethodsAfter being trained on an oddity task in which they had to select a noise pattern where a face (either human or chimpanzee) or a letter (Kanji characters) was superimposed among three patterns, they were tested with noise patterns that did not contain any target stimuli.ResultsWhen the average images of the patterns selected by the chimpanzees in these test trials were analyzed and compared with those that were not selected (i.e., difference images), a clear non-random structure was found in the difference images. …”

A Multimethod Approach towards Assessing Urban Flood Patterns and Its Associated Vulnerabilities in Singapore by Winston T. L. Chow, Brendan D. Cheong, Beatrice H. Ho

“…We find that, despite effective flood management, (i) significant increases in reported flash flood frequency occurred in contemporary (post-2000) relative to preceding (1984–1999) periods, (ii) these flash floods coincide with more localised, “patchy” storm events, (iii) storms in recent years are also more intense and frequent, and (iv) floods result in low human casualties but have high economic costs via insurance damage claims. …”
