Assessing Biological Mortality Bias From Deciduous Tooth Emergence
ABSTRACT Objectives Traits found in a skeletal sample are frequently used to infer qualities of the living population from which the skeletons were drawn. However, traits observed in a mortality sample may exhibit biological mortality bias in that they may not accurately represent the same traits in the living sample.

Emerging evidence links childhood severe malnutrition to adult cardiometabolic disease risk. Higher admission weight and nutritional oedema predicted adult adiposity while faster rehabilitation weight gain predicted adult adiposity in males only. Rehabilitation weight gain itself was a partial mediator of long‐term adiposity risk.

Pleurotus sajor-caju strains (PscW and PscA), indigenous to Wli forest in the Volta region and Atewa forest in the Eastern region of Ghana, respectively, were studied to identify optimal cultivation conditions. This research aimed to determine the ideal temperature, pH and growth media for the vegetative development of these oyster mushrooms strains ...

Formulation and characterization of liposomal glutathione as a key component in mitigation of Kwashiorkor disease in children with malnutrition [PDF]
Background. Kwashiorkor disease is due to deficiency of protein in malnutrition condition. Malnutrition is one of the major drawbacks among the Indian children. In India, the impact of undernutrition among impoverished children is disproportionately felt

Health problems can often be traced hack to one or the other form of deficiency. In order to study the role of trace elements in the human body it is necessary to develop techniques through which tiny samples taken from the body can be analysed.
