A balance between stability and flexibility: Adaptive patterns of self‐regulated learning processes shape game‐based learning

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract To ensure learning efficiency in game‐based learning (GBL), learners must regulate cognitive, affective, metacognitive and motivational (CAMM) processes, collectively known as self‐regulated learning (SRL). SRL is dynamic and non‐linear, characterized by regulatory patterns and CAMM interactions that lead to macro‐level SRL behaviours. In this

The mortality gradient in town and country: Social class and childhood mortality in Sweden at the turn of the twentieth century

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines social‐class and urban–rural differentials in childhood mortality in Sweden from 1880 to 1910, a period of steady mortality decline, ongoing industrialization, and urbanization. Urbanization brought improvements in water quality and sanitation but also increased risks from overcrowding, pollution, and infectious diseases ...

Impacts of coal smoke on infant mortality: Evidence from industrializing Japan

The Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the health consequences of coal smoke during Japan's early industrialization. Using fixed‐effects models and a prefecture‐level panel dataset on actual coal consumption and infant mortality from 1899 to 1910, this study finds that higher coal consumption was positively associated with infant mortality.

Induction of Cell Cycle and NK Cell Responses by Live-Attenuated Oral Vaccines against Typhoid Fever

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
The mechanisms by which oral, live-attenuated vaccines protect against typhoid fever are poorly understood. Here, we analyze transcriptional responses after vaccination with Ty21a or vaccine candidate, M01ZH09.

Over diagnosis of typhoid and malaria co-infection by health care workers in north central Nigeria: a cross-sectional study

Nigerian Journal of Medicine, 2020
Introduction: Typhoid and malaria are significant causes of morbidity and mortality, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. Typhoid and malaria co-infection may occur as superinfection or even simultaneous infections. However, it appears to be rather rare. It

Simultaneous modification of Thermotoga maritima encapsulin subunits to produce multivalent nanoparticle vaccines for non‐typhoidal Salmonella enterica

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study investigates the modularity of encapsulin—a protein nanoparticle—by simultaneously inserting up to four distinct Salmonella epitopes within the encapsulin subunit. The encapsulin variants were transiently expressed in plants where they assembled into nanoparticles; however, their accumulation and stability varied depending on the ...

Differences in perception of dysentery and enteric fever and willingness to receive vaccines among rural residents in China.

, 2006
BACKGROUND: Enteric diseases including dysentery and enteric fever remain significant public health problems in China. While vaccines offer great potential in controlling these diseases, greater understanding of factors influencing acceptance of vaccines

The YrbE phospholipid transporter of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi regulates the expression of flagellin and influences motility, adhesion and induction of epithelial inflammatory responses

Gut Microbes, 2020
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi is the etiologic agent of typhoid fever, a major public health problem in the developing world. Moving toward and adhering to the intestinal epithelium represents key initial steps of infection by S. Typhi.

A spatiotemporal analysis of Salmonella bacteraemia in Queensland, 2010–2019

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Salmonellosis contributes to a significant burden on global healthcare systems. The impact of this foodborne bacterium is more pronounced when the infection is invasive, leading to bacteraemia and sepsis. Studies on invasive salmonellosis are few, and there is an urgent need to understand the spatial distribution of bacteraemia and ...
