Exclusive breastfeeding is associated with the gut microbiome maturation in infants according to delivery mode by Nathalia F. Naspolini, Paulo A. Schüroff, Pedro A. R. Vanzele, Davi Pereira-Santos, Tamires Amabili Valim, Kevin S. Bonham, André Fujita, Maria Rita Passos-Bueno, Patricia C. B. Beltrão-Braga, André C. P. L. F. Carvalho, Vanja Klepac-Ceraj, Guilherme V. Polanczyk, Alline C. Campos, Carla R. Taddei

“…In this study, we applied whole metagenomic sequencing to assess the gut microbiome assembly in 525 Brazilian infants from 3 to 9 months of age of the Germina Cohort, demonstrating the early determinants of microbial taxonomy and function modulation. Our analysis shows that EBF alters the relative abundance of genes related to the microbiome taxonomy and function, with effects varying by delivery mode. …”

Brain plasticity associated with prolonged shooting training: a multimodal neuroimaging investigation from a cross-sectional study by Keying Zhang, Tao Zhao, Yu Ding, Jia Cheng, Chunmei Cao

“…BackgroundAlthough training has been recognized as a potential contributor to neuroplasticity in athletes, the impact of prolonged shooting training on human brain plasticity remains unclear in the existing literature.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, we used a multimodal neuroimaging analysis, including the analysis of functional blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images, structural T1-weighted MRI images, and diffusion MRI images, to systematically identify differences between elite shooters and normal controls.ResultsThe results showed that compared to male normal controls, male elite shooters had higher regional homogeneity (ReHo) in the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, precuneus, thalamus, and cingulate gyrus, as well as higher functional connectivity between the medial frontal cortex (MedFC) and temporooccipital middle temporal gyrus (toMTG). …”
