Understanding what violent street crime, globalization, and ice cream have in common
Abstract Research Summary In recent years, nutrition researchers have found that ice cream may have as many health benefits as low‐fat milk or yoghurt for those with diabetes or at risk of diabetes. Nonetheless, they have resisted reporting this finding to the media, the public, or other researchers.

Urban nutrition situation in the slums of three cities in Asia during the COVID‐19 pandemic
During the pandemic, many urban‐poor households in Myanmar, Indonesia, and the Philippines experienced moderate or severe food insecurity. Of the three populations, urban‐poor households in the Philippines were most food insecure, with at least 8 in 10 households worried about food the year before the pandemic, and at least 6 in 10 households food ...

Circular RNA Telomerase Reverses Endothelial Senescence in Progeria
TERT circRNA outperforms linear TERT mRNA in reversing the hallmarks of senescence. TERT circRNA more efficiently restores endothelial function and shows superior capability in enhancing mitochondrial function. ABSTRACT Telomeres shorten with each cell division, acting as a chronometer of cell age. The enzyme telomerase, primarily active in stem cells,

Abstract Given the recent, rapid urbanisation in Asia and the Pacific region, coupled with increases in the triple burden of malnutrition, we need to better understand maternal, infant and young child nutrition (MIYCN) for populations living in urban slum environments.

Phosphorylation of an RNA‐Binding Protein Rck/Me31b by Hippo Is Essential for Adipose Tissue Aging
Evolutionary conserved Hippo/Mst1 signaling non‐canonically regulates the stability of mRNAs through directly phosphorylating a subset of RNA binding proteins to stabilize lipolytic mRNAs. Hpo pathway contributes to the regulation of Drosophila lifespan by modulating the expression and activity of Me31b/RCK, which subsequently affects mRNA levels of ...

Political conflicts and food import refusals
Abstract We examine the impact of political conflicts on China's food import refusals using monthly data from 2010 to 2022. Our analysis reveals that political conflicts significantly contribute to increased food import rejections. Specifically, a one‐standard‐deviation rise in political tensions results in a .02% increase in the number of import ...

Navigating the Measurement Frontier: New Insights Into Small Farm Realities
ABSTRACT Measurement is not only a way of describing complex realities; it can also transform those realities by influencing policies. We live in an era of measurement innovation: new methods to deploy and new ways of adapting familiar, proven strategies to new contexts.

Rocking the Boat to Change the Debate: Identifying and Testing Conventional Wisdom
ABSTRACT This paper presents a method for and experiences with pioneering new research directions that challenge “conventional wisdom” and change policy and research debates. The method consists of four steps: (1) identify the conventional wisdom (CW); (2) ignore the CW and go to the field without pre‐conceived notions, and look long and hard at ...
