Wen Lighty, a leader in the Chinese American community in Jacksonville, Florida, has been a Republican for more than 10 years. As a small business owner, she said the party's ethos of fiscal conservatism and small government resonated with her. But last May, after Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill banning Chinese people from buying property in Florida, Lighty switched parties and began campaigning for local and national Democratic candidates. Ahead of Florida's Aug. 20 primary election, outrage over Senate Bill 264 has spurred a voter mobilization effort in the state's Chinese American community, driving conservatives away from the Republican…

In July, Russian seaborne exports of heating fuel oil and vacuum gas oil (VGO) to Asia reached 4.05 million tonnes, up 7% from the previous month.The increase was due to the restart of operations at Russian refineries after seasonal maintenance.Since the EU embargo in February 2023, Russia has been redirecting its exports to more receptive Asian markets, particularly China and Saudi Arabia. China, a major importer, saw its purchases of Russian fuel oil and VGO increase by 18% to 700,000 tonnes in July.This fuel oil is primarily used in the refining process, often in combination with Urals crude, allowing Beijing…

Researchers have developed a screening system that they say is about 80% accurate in children under the age of two, and say artificial intelligence could help experts identify young children who may have autism.The researchers say their approach, which is based on a type of AI called machine learning, could pay off.”Using AI models, we can leverage available information to identify individuals at high risk of autism earlier, enabling them to receive earlier diagnosis and support,” said Dr Christina Tamimis, study co-author from the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden.But, she added, “we want to stress that this algorithm cannot diagnose autism,…

Earlier this year, I outlined the potential impact of a President Trump presidency on Southeast Asian countries. I argued that if former President Trump went ahead with his plans to significantly toughen the U.S. stance against China, it could cause significant trade disruptions in Southeast Asia. Moreover, it could force many Southeast Asian countries that do not want to choose between the U.S. and China (which, according to a valuable new CSIS report, are becoming more receptive to Chinese soft power) to do so. Trump and his running mate, Ohio Senator J.D. Vance, have fallen back a bit in the…

写真: callipso88/Adobe Stock最近の研究では、生後数か月間のサラブレッドの子馬の腸内微生物群の構成から、3歳までの特定の病気のリスクを予測できることが明らかになりました。この研究では、これらの若い競走馬の細菌群構造が、将来の運動能力の予測因子でもあることもわかりました。1,2「この研究は初めて、幼少期の腸内細菌叢とその後の運動能力との関係を実証しており、これは人間を含むすべての種のアスリートにとって意味のあることだ」と研究の著者らは記している。1「幼少期の細菌群集構造が競走馬のリスクと運動能力を予測する」と題されたこの研究では、英国の研究者らが競走馬として飼育されたサラブレッドの子馬52頭を対象に縦断的研究を行った。研究者らは、438のサンプルからrRNA遺伝子配列を解析し、生後1年を通してこれらの子馬の幼少期の糞便細菌群集構造を9回分析した。さらに、各子馬の呼吸器、胃腸、整形外科、軟部組織の健康状態は誕生から3歳まで監視された。さらに、これらの馬は3歳まで規制された競馬に参加し、この期間中のすべてのレースでパフォーマンスデータが収集された。データによると、生後 28 日、90 日、365 日で糞便細菌多様性が低い子馬は、軟部組織および整形外科関連疾患に加えて、後年呼吸器疾患を発症するリスクが有意に高いことが示されました。1,2 具体的には、呼吸器疾患は、糞便中の Pseudomonadaceae の相対的存在量の増加と大きく正の相関関係がありました。軟部組織の損傷または疾患は、生後 8 日で糞便中の Streptococceae の相対的存在量、生後 14 日で Moraxellaceae の相対的存在量と正の相関関係がありました。胃腸疾患および疾患は、生後 90 日で糞便中の Rikenellaceae の相対的存在量と関連がありました。1運動能力の点では、この研究では、生後 28 日目の糞便微生物多様性と、これらの子馬の公式評価、平均賞金獲得額、および平均レース順位との間に有意な正の相関関係があることがわかりました。2「生後28日目の腸内微生物群が、なぜ将来の呼吸器の健康と運動能力にそれほど影響を与えるのかは不明だ」と研究の著者らは書いている。1「この時期の環境変化には、牧草地(関連する草と土壌微生物)への露出の増加と、子馬が乳を飲むだけでなく母親の食事を食べる傾向の増加が含まれる。免疫学的には、子馬の受動免疫は生後数週間で衰えていく」と著者らは続けている。この研究では、生後 1 か月以内に子馬を抗生物質にさらした場合の影響も調査され、抗菌治療が馬に悪影響を与えることが明らかになりました。この研究では、生後 1 か月以内に抗菌治療を受けた子馬は、生後 28 日時点で糞便中の細菌多様性が大幅に低下し、その後の呼吸器疾患のリスクが大幅に上昇したことが示されました。1,2 これらの参加者は、運動能力の指標である平均賞金も大幅に減少しました。1「私たちの研究は、幼少期の腸内細菌叢の影響を実証した初めての研究です。私たちの研究結果は、スポーツ科学の新たな重要な概念を導入するものです」と、著者らは研究の中で述べています。1参考文献Leng J、Moller-Levet C、Mansergh RI、他。競走馬の幼少期の腸内細菌群集構造が、病気のリスクと運動能力を予測する。Scientific Reports。2024;14(1)。https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-64657-6マイクロバイオームの多様性が若い競走馬の病気のリスクを予測する。ニュースリリース。アメリカ獣医師会。2024年8月14日。2024年8月19日にアクセス。https://www.avma.org/news/microbiome-diversity-predicts-risk-disease-young-racehorses?utm_source=delivra&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=todays-headlines-news Source link

Nearly one in three Americans – 96 million adults – have prediabetes, but only 2-3% receive help to prevent it from progressing to full-blown disease. The medical consequences of diabetes are, of course, significant – affecting vision, the circulatory system, and in severe cases, requiring amputation – but there are other consequences as well. Because so many healthcare resources are spent managing the myriad medical risks of diabetes, properly addressing and ideally preventing it could save American taxpayers enormous amounts of money. Remote patient monitoring holds great potential for improving the treatment and lives of people with chronic diseases, including…
