A PATHWAY TO IMPROVED MATERNITY RESEARCH IN NORTHERN IRELAND? NOVEL LINKAGE OF NORTHERN IRELAND LONGITUDINAL STUDY AND NORTHERN IRELAND MATERNITY SERVICES SYSTEM

Objective Our primary objective was to determine the social and demographic determinants of interpregnancy weight change.A secondary aim is to highlight the novel linkage of two Dessert Rolls data resources in Northern Ireland (NI) and the potential for transformative research in maternal health.Approach We piloted a process to link two datasets in

Almond skins are a waste byproduct of blanched almond production.Polyphenols extracted from almond skins possess antioxidant activities in vitro and in vivo.Thus, we examined the pharmacokinetic profile of almond skin polyphenols (ASP) and their effect on measures of oxidative stress.In a randomized crossover trial, seven adults consumed two acute

Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) sustain and modulate spermatogenesis through intricate signaling pathways and transcription factors.Promyelocytic leukemia zinc-finger (Plzf, also known as Zbtb16) has been identified as a critical transcription factor influencing various signaling and differentiation pathways.Plzf plays a pivotal role in regulating

Lengths of seedlings aboveground parts of nine wheat varieties grown in greenhouse were reduced by 4-20%.They were tested during April at around 20oC after twice daily treatments with glyphosate based herbicide (0.5 ml in 1l water solution, 0.5 dl on 0.5 m2).When results of permanent artificially and daily lighted trials were compared, four groups
