Article Abstract
Commonsense epidemiology-how lay people think about diseases and their causes and consequences-can influence how people respond. We examined three lay epidemiological beliefs about 20 triggers and 19 symptoms among 349 caregivers of children with asthma. Our findings contradicted the (perceived prevalence and seriousness correlate negatively). The data partially supported the (perceived prevalence and asthma control correlate negatively). We found weak support for the (perceived seriousness and asthma control correlate negatively). These findings suggest boundary conditions on the application of commonsense epidemiological beliefs.

Hardness of meat is one of the most important textural properties noted while eating. Bromelain, found in pineapples, is an enzyme that degrades collagen, a factor that affects meat hardness. The latter is generally evaluated based on shear strength and texture; however, such methods are destructive.

The study was conducted to investigate the religious coping and psychological resilience levels of women survivors of the earthquake living in temporary shelters after the devastating earthquakes that struck southern and eastern Turkey in 2023. In this cross-sectional study conducted between July 24, 2024, and September 24, 2024, 386 women living in a temporary shelter in a province in the eastern part of Turkey were included. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Religious Coping Scale, and Brief Resilience Scale.

The fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus (Wiedemann) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is one of the main pests in apple orchards. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) are tools with good ability to predict phenomena such as the seasonal dynamics of pest populations. Thus, the objective of this work was to determine a prediction model for the seasonal dynamics of A.

The complex interplay between circulating metabolites and immune responses, which is pivotal to disease pathophysiology, remains poorly understood and understudied in systematic research. Here, we performed a comprehensive analysis of the immune response and circulating metabolome in two Western European cohorts (534 and 324 healthy individuals) and one from sub-Saharan Africa (323 healthy donors). At the metabolic level, our analysis revealed sex-specific differences in the correlation between phosphatidylcholine and cytokine responses following ex vivo stimulation.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between tissue bridges and bladder and bowel outcomes in chronic cervical spinal cord injury (SCI).
Methods: Between July 2020 and January 2024, 44 patients with chronic cervical SCI were retrospectively included in this cross-sectional study at a specialized SCI center. Lesion severity was assessed by tissue bridges, lesion length, lesion width, and lesion area.
