Donor milk intake and infant growth in a South African neonatal unit: a cohort study
International Breastfeeding Journal, 2018 Background Implications of donor milk feedings on infant growth in resource limited settings remain uncertain. This knowledge gap includes the impact of donor milk availability on infant intake of mother’s own milk. Therefore, this investigation aimed to

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.PIK3CA amplification and PIK3CA mutation enhance ovarian tumorigenicity through an activation of AKT, which phosphorylates YAP at Ser127. This Ser127 phosphorylation leads to the retention of YAP in the cytoplasm and triggers RAC1 activity, promoting cell migration. Additionally, AKT activation increases expression of N‐cadherin, which further enhances

Encoding of low-quality DNA profiles as genotype probability matrices for improved profile comparisons, relatedness evaluation and database searches [PDF]
Forensic Science International: Genetics 25 (2016) 227-39, 2016 Many DNA profiles recovered from crime scene samples are of a quality that does not allow them to be searched against, nor entered into, databases. We propose a method for the comparison of profiles arising from two DNA samples, one or both of which can have multiple donors and be affected by low DNA template or degraded DNA.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.The complex mode of action of the topoisomerase II inhibitor etoposide in triggering apoptosis involves several mechanisms: overexpression of the mitochondrial protein VDAC1, leading to its oligomerization and formation of a large channel that mediates the release of pro‐apoptotic protein; and overexpression of the apoptosis regulators p53, Bax, and ...

Characteristics of the First Human Milk Bank in Taiwan
Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2013 The benefits of feeding human milk to infants, even in prematurity, have been well documented. Well-organized donor milk processing has made the milk bank a good source of nutrition for premature or sick infants if their own mother's milk is not ...

Donor human milk for Muslim infants in the UK
Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2016 Donor human milk (DHM) is currently used in neonatal units (NNUs) for feeding preterm infants when own mother's milk is not available or insufficient. In 2014, the latest Cochrane review1 showed that in preterm and low birthweight infants, feeding with formula compared with DHM results in a higher risk of developing necrotising enterocolitis (NEC).

Human donor milk for the vulnerable infant: a Canadian perspective [PDF]
International Breastfeeding Journal, 2014 Breast milk is the normal way to feed infants and is accepted worldwide as the optimal first source of nutrition. Though the majority intend to breastfeed, many mothers of sick, hospitalized newborns, particularly those of very low birth weight, are unable to provide a full volume of milk due to numerous physical and emotional barriers to breastfeeding.

Modelling attenuation and velocity of ultrasonics in reconstituted milk powder [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In the context of food quality control, ultrasonics provide proven methods which are able to replace manual controls. The latter are subject to the lack of objectivity of human judgement. Automatic control increases reliability and reduces costs. This paper revisits data coming from ultrasonics through reconstituted milk powder. Two characteristics are
