Barriers to oral health care for transgender and gender nonbinary populations
CONCLUSIONS: Discrepancies between TGNB patients' expectations and actual experiences suggest that their needs are often unmet in the dental setting, possibly contributing to gender identity-associated dental avoidance and oral health disparities.PRACTICAL IMPLICATIONS: Although these results need to be verified in larger and more diverse samples, they provide actionable information for improvement to this population's oral health and management.PMID:36973159 | DOI:10.1016/j.adaj.2023.02.009 (Source: Journal of the American Dental Association)

The Malaysian Muslim Community ’s Understanding of So-Called Prophetic Health and Cosmetic Products
AbstractThe present work aimed to identify and describe the Malaysian Muslim community ’s understanding of health and cosmetic products related to thesunnah of Prophet Muhammad which are available in the Malaysian market. The demographics of this understanding are examined with respect to gender, age, marital and working status, highest level of education, and monthly income earned. A survey was conducted in 2017. A structured questionnaire pertaining to such products was used to capture the relevant data. This survey implemented a multistage design stratified by state, proportionate to the size of the state population, ...

Effect of decontamination and processing on insecticide residues in grape (Muscat Hamburg)
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2022 Jun 3. doi: 10.1007/s11356-022-21165-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTField and laboratory experiments were conducted to study the effect of simple decontamination methods and processing on imidacloprid, dimethoate, and emamectin benzoate residues in grapes and their processed products by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Among the decontamination methods evaluated, washing with NaCl (2%) solution was effective for reducing imidacloprid (77.55%), dimethoate (83.27%), and emamectin benzoate (77.28%) residues in mature grapes. No metabolites (omethoate and 6-chloronicotinic acid) were ...

Insights into the ecology of Schizosaccharomyces species in natural and artificial habitats
Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek. 2022 Mar 31. doi: 10.1007/s10482-022-01720-0. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe fission yeast genus Schizosaccharomyces contains important model organisms for biological research. In particular, S. pombe is a widely used model eukaryote. So far little is known about the natural and artificial habitats of species in this genus. Finding out where S. pombe and other fission yeast species occur and how they live in their habitats can promote better understanding of their biology. Here we investigate in which substrates S. pombe, S. octosporus, S. osmophilus and S. japonicus are present. To this end abo...
