Characterization of Avian Influenza Virus H10–H12 Subtypes Isolated from Wild Birds in Shanghai, China from 2016 to 2019

Viruses, 2020
H10, H11 and H12 (H10–H12) subtypes of the avian influenza virus (AIV) are associated with waterfowl. Although these subtypes of AIV are infrequently detected in nature, they can undergo reassortment with other AIV subtypes.

Family Dispute Resolution in Australia: The Under‐Servicing of Indigenous, Migrant and Refugee Families Experiencing Family Violence

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Improving access to legal services for Indigenous, migrant and refugee women is critical to addressing family violence. In this context, Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) has long been discussed as a solution for separating families. This paper presents key findings of a research evaluation of an Australian Government $8.37 million pilot project

Phylogenetic analysis and pathogenicity assessment of two strains of avian influenza virus subtype H9N2 isolated from migratory birds: High homology of internal genes with human H10N8 virus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Two human-infecting avian influenza viruses (AIVs), H7N9 and H10N8, have emerged in China. This development further indicates that as an internal gene donor, the H9N2 subtype of AIVs may have an important role in the generation of new viruses with cross ...

Synthetic Particulate Subunit Vaccines Co‐Delivering Multiple Antigens Induce Protective Immunity Against Melioidosis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Engineered endotoxin‐free Escherichia coli were used to assemble poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) biopolymer particles displaying multiple conserved Burkholderia pseudomallei antigens via PhaC‐mediated surface presentation. Following formulation with poly(I:C), the particulate vaccines induced antigen‐specific humoral and cellular immune responses ...

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.
