Article Abstract
Hygienic behavior (HB) emerges as a pivotal trait, impacting colony resistance to diseases. This study aimed to understand the behavioral traits of colonies, with a focus on HB and other key characteristics crucial for colony health, and to screen and identify colonies with superior hygienic behavior and better performance to combat prevailing diseases and pests. This research spans a comprehensive field analysis with different seasons and locations, encompassing the distinct environmental and management factors that influence honey bee behavior. The inclusion of colonies from various locations provides a novel perspective, offering valuable insights regarding the hygienic behavior of . Several statistical analyses, including descriptive statistics, principal component analysis (PCA), and Aligned Rank Transformation-Analysis of Variance (ART-ANOVA) for repeated measures, shed light on the distribution of hive metrics, emphasizing the significance of considering seasonality and location-specific factors. PCA highlights unique characteristics in Tirupur and Coimbatore colonies, while correlation analyses uncover relationships among HB, honey, pollen, brood area, and adult population. Moreover, the study's nuanced findings gave the status of hygienic behavior of colonies and identified colonies with better colony performance, which will be useful for future breeding programs with .

Oral cancer is a major global health burden, ranking sixth in prevalence, with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) being the most common type. Importantly, OSCC is often diagnosed at late stages, underscoring the need for innovative methods for early detection. The oral microbiome, an active microbial community within the oral cavity, holds promise as a biomarker for the prediction and progression of cancer.

Objectives: Socioeconomic status (SES) has a significant effect on the burden of early childhood caries (ECC), yet addressing SES disparities remains challenging. This study aimed to identify and quantify the most impactful mediator linking SES effect to the occurrence of ECC using advanced causal mediation analysis, to inform targeted interventions that reduce SES-related disparities in ECC.
Methods: Data were drawn from the Study of Mothers' and Infants' Life Events, a cohort of 2,182 mother-child dyads recruited from Adelaide's 3 largest public hospitals (2013-2014).

Purpose: The high frequency of urinary disorders and their complications among school-aged children is common but few studies have investigated their predictors such as poor urinary hygiene habits, inappropriate use of school toilets, and deteriorated school toilets conditions. The question is whether individual factors (behaviors) conditioned by environmental factors (toilet conditions) play a role in functional urinary disorders.
Materials And Methods: We performed an electronic cross-sectional observational study from October 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024, in the department of Vienne (France), among children's parents.

Background: Vaccine confidence is crucial for achieving high vaccination rates against COVID-19, yet vaccine confidence varied significantly throughout the pandemic. This study assessed the trajectories and predictors of COVID-19 vaccine confidence from prior to the vaccine rollout to mass vaccination.
Methods: It is a population-based cohort study with nine waves of longitudinal data from September 2020 to February 2023, spanning the pre-vaccine rollout to COVID-19 mass vaccination in Hong Kong.

Background: Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD), yet few studies have combined objective and subjective measures. The objectives of this study were to evaluate sleep patterns and sleep hygiene in children with ADHD and ASD compared age-matched typically developing children, using both parent-reported questionnaires and actigraphy, to assess the concordance between these measures, and to determine the clinical applicability of actigraphy in this population.
Methods: Sixty children with NDD (30 ASD, 30 ADHD) and 40 typically developing controls, matched for age, underwent seven nights of actigraphic recording.
