The prospective associations of 24-hour movement behaviors and domain-specific activities with executive function and academic achievement among school-aged children in Singapore by Padmapriya, Natarajan, Bernard, Jonathan Y., Tan, Sarah Yi Xuan, Chu, Anne H. Y., Goh, Claire Marie Jie Lin, Tan, Shuen Lin, Shek, Lynette P., Chong, Yap Seng, Tan, Kok Hian, Chan, Shiao-Yng, Yap, Fabian, Godfrey, Keith M., Lee, Yung Seng, Meaney, Michael J., Eriksson, Johan G., Tan, Chuen Seng, Law, Evelyn C., Müller-Riemenschneider, Falk

“…Background: Physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior (SB), and sleep are collectively referred to as 24-h movement behaviors, which may be linked to cognitive development in children. However, most of the evidence was based on cross-sectional studies and/or solely relied on parent-reported information on children’s behaviors, and it remains uncertain whether all domains/contexts of PA and SB are similarly associated with executive function and academic achievement. …”

ESBL and AmpC β-lactamase encoding genes in E. coli from pig and pig farm workers in Vietnam and their association with mobile genetic elements by Hounmanou, Yaovi Mahuton Gildas, Bortolaia, Valeria, Dang, Son Thi Thanh, Truong, Duong, Olsen, John E., Dalsgaard, Anders

“…The isolates carrying the plasmids, even those with plasmids of similar types, showed wide genetic variation with high number of SNPs, suggesting horizontal spread of plasmids into different clonal lines. Their virulence profiles did not confirm to known pathotypes, suggesting that unrelated commensals are a main reservoir for ESBL and AmpC β-lactamases in both humans and pigs. …”
