The LIFT project provides valuable insight into infant feeding practices of Bangladeshi and Pakistani communities in the United Kingdom. It identifies the communities' perspective on which infant feeding practices should be a priority and which are most amenable to change, offering a robust evidence base to draw on in the development of culturally ...

Safety and Pharmacokinetics of a Four Monoclonal Antibody Combination Against Botulinum C and D Neurotoxins. [PDF]
Botulism is caused by botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT), the most poisonous substance known. BoNTs are also classified as Tier 1 biothreat agents due to their high potency and lethality.

Epidemiology of diagnostic errors in pediatric emergency departments using electronic triggers
Abstract Objectives We applied three electronic triggers to study frequency and contributory factors of missed opportunities for improving diagnosis (MOIDs) in pediatric emergency departments (EDs): return visits within 10 days resulting in admission (Trigger 1), care escalation within 24 h of ED presentation (Trigger 2), and death within 24 h of ED ...

The ecology of botulinum neurotoxin‐producing Clostridia bacteria and their non‐toxinogenic phylogenetic counterparts remains unclear. This study explored the current literature, mine > 5000 SRA samples, and provide a pilot feeding experiment in a butterfly, to propose evidence of the interconnection between Clostridia and insects.

Abstract As countries and communities grapple with climate change, they seek to rapidly decarbonize their economies and cultures. A low‐carbon future will likely depend on more distributed solar energy, the electrification of mobility, and more efficient homes and buildings. But what emergent risks are evident within this low‐carbon society?
