2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer is a leading cause of cancer deaths among women in Nigeria, yet awareness is low. Historically, art has served as a medium for processing emotions and sharing experiences, which can be effective in promoting health and behavior change.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine art submissions and social media engagement from a Nigerian crowdsourcing open call to inform co-designed strategies for cervical cancer prevention among women.

METHODS: This study reported following the SRQR (Standard Reporting for Qualitative Research) guideline. From October to November 2023, we launched an open call for art on social media, inviting adult women …

Two Axes Of White Matter Development, Audrey C Luo, Deanna M Barch, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

Despite decades of neuroimaging research, how white matter develops along the length of major tracts in humans remains unknown. Here, we identify fundamental patterns of white matter maturation by examining developmental variation along major, long-range cortico-cortical tracts in youth ages 5-23 years using diffusion MRI from three large-scale, cross-sectional datasets (total N = 2716). Across datasets, we delineate two replicable axes of human white matter development. First, we find a deep-to-superficial axis, in which superficial tract regions near the cortical surface exhibit greater age-related change than deep tract regions. Second, we demonstrate that the development of superficial tract regions aligns …

A Qualitative Examination Of The Motivations For Homeschooling Among Black Americans, Portia J. Witt

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

This qualitative phenomenological study explored the motivations and lived experiences of African American homeschooling families. Twelve Black parents from multiple states participated in semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed using Moustakas’ (1994) Modified Stevick–Colaizzi–Keen method and coded thematically using NVivo. Nine themes emerged: autonomy, holistic education, community belonging, online networks, public resources, curriculum gaps, personal values, effective learning, and legacy of harm. While racialization in schools—including tracking, microaggressions, and misidentification—contributed to participants’ decisions, motivations also reflected intersectional factors such as faith, disability, mental health needs, giftedness, and a desire for cultural protection and flexible learning. Findings suggest homeschooling serves as a …

Nighttime Or Daytime? How Milk Melatonin Levels Relate To Differential And Somatic Cell Count In Dairy Cow Milk, Eleonora Dall'olio, Claudio Cipolat-Gotet, Melania Andrani, Valeria Cavalli, Giovanni Ferri, Mario Baratta, Roberta Saleri, Fabio De Rensis

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

This study investigates the impact of winter nighttime versus daytime milking on melatonin concentration in milk and explores its relationship with somatic cell count (SCC) and differential somatic cell count (DSCC). Milk samples were collected from 40 Holstein cows at 12-hour intervals (04:00 AM Night samples and 04:00 PM Day samples) during the winter season (11 h of light and 13 h of darkness). The relationship between melatonin content, SCC and DSCC was assessed. Night milk had significantly higher melatonin levels (15.63 ± 1.90 pg/mL) compared to day milk (6.80 ± 0.75 pg/mL). SCC was significantly lower in night milk …

Effect Of Dietary Chitosan Oligosaccharide Levels And Molecular Weight With Deacetylation Degree Characteristics On Peptide Transporter 1 Gene Expression In Weaning Pig’S Small Intestine, Boonrit Thongsong, Sarinee Kalandakanond-Thongsong, Rath Pichyangkura

The Thai Journal of Veterinary Medicine

The present study aimed to assess the expression response of peptide transporter1 (PepT1) mRNA (SLC15A1) in weaning pig’s small intestine to the effect of dietary chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) supplement level, molecular weight (MW) and deacetylation degree (DD) characteristics. On days 28 and 56 of the experiments, small intestine samples obtained from our previous two experiments on weaned pigs were used to study the PepT1 mRNA expression. In experiment 1, pigs received either a basal diet or a basal diet supplemented with 75, 150, or 225 mg/kg COS. In experiment 2, pigs received either a basal diet or a basal diet …

Collaboration Of Economic Institutions Based On Empowerment Programs To Strengthen Food Security: The Case Of Laying Hens In North Gorontalo, Karin Safitri

Jurnal Administrasi Bisnis Terapan

This study analyzes the role of economic institutional cooperation in strengthening food security through the development of laying hen farming in North Gorontalo Regency. Eggs are positioned as a strategic animal food due to their nutrient density and affordability for households, while also being relevant to the agenda of improving nutritional status through government programs. This study examines how the synergy of village and community institutions (e.g., Village-Owned Enterprises, cooperatives, and livestock groups) with regional livestock empowerment programs (e.g., the 2 Goats 10 Chickens/G2-10 Movement) and the national Free Nutritious Meals (MBG) program can strengthen production capacity, expand the farmer …
