Exploring the prevalence and antibiotic resistance of Listeria monocytogenes in diverse food commodities across Sikkim, IndiaNARA Subscribed
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen of significant public health concern, especially due to its ability to survive in a wide range of foods and cause severe illness in vulnerable populations. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and antibiotic resistance of L. monocytogenes across a variety of food commodities collected from four districts of Sikkim, India, between April 2023 and May 2025. A total of 2,829...
Aim We investigate the distribution of dispersal modes — endozoochory (via animal ingestion), synzoochory (via animal seed accumulation) and anemochory (via wind)—and seed mass of woody plants across Brazilian ecosystems, testing whether their relative abundance in local plant communities could be predicted by climate, edaphic factors and dispersal agents (e.g., the main vectors moving seeds). We expected climate to be the mai...
Integrating genomic medicine into primary care –examining perceptions of community advisory board membersNARA Subscribed
The Alabama Genomic Health Initiative (AGHI), funded by the state of Alabama, aims to provide genomic testing, interpretation, and counseling free of charge to Alabama residents. A 14-member Community Advisory Board (CAB) was convened in 2021 to provide community insight on integrating genomic medicine into clinical care and assessing future perspectives. The CAB was comprised of members from diverse ethnic backgrounds and rep...
Interpretable deep learning reveals spatiotemporal MRI features of brain aging that align with neurodegenerationNARA Subscribed
Cortical thinning and atrophy are hallmarks of brain aging that have been characterized using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Brain aging involves many neuroanatomic features whose effects on brain structure remain unexplored. To address this challenge, we trained interpretable deep neural networks (DNNs) to estimate brain age (BA) from T 1 -weighted ( T 1 w) MRI. By identifying MRI features unapparent to humans, DNNs can fi...
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) disproportionately affects women and carriers of the apolipoprotein E ε4 allele (APOE4), yet little is known about how sex and APOE interact to influence white matter (WM) integrity during disease progression. We integrated diffusion MRI and matched blood transcriptomic data to investigate these interactions and their underlying biological mechanisms. WM microstructure was quantified using diffusion te...
