SIDS and Other Sleep-Related Infant Deaths: Evidence Base for 2016 Updated Recommendations for a Safe Infant Sleeping Environment

open access: yesPediatrics, 2016
Approximately 3500 infants die annually in the United States from sleep-related infant deaths, including sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), ill-defined deaths, and accidental suffocation and strangulation in bed. After an initial decrease in the 1990s,

Maternal and infant infections stimulate a rapid leukocyte response in breastmilk [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Breastmilk protects infants against infections; however, specific responses of breastmilk immune factors to different infections of either the mother or the infant are not well understood. Here, we examined the baseline range of breastmilk leukocytes and

Preparation of spinel ferrites-based flexible electrodes for high electrochemical performances

open access: yesChemical Physics Impact
In this study, we synthesized two different types of spinel ferrites as CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 nanocomposites by thermal decomposition method to improve the performance of supercapacitor research. Numerous physicochemical characterization tests, including X-
