The authors looked at how storage temperature of potatoes can impact the sweetness of potatoes (due to the break down of the starch into simple sugars).

Using machine learning to predict the risk of algae bloom

This study used an improved CMS-seq method to profile 5hmC in ormalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from HNC tumors and adjacent normal tissues, identifying three genes (PRKD2, HADHA, and AIPL1) with promising potential as biomarkers for Head and neck cancer (HNC) diagnosis.

The authors looked at soil quality of former military sites where chemical disposal was known to have occurred. Along with testing for heavy metals, the authors also looked for the presence (and number) of earthworms present in topsoil samples as a marker of soil health.

The authors looked at the ability of Spirulina platensis to reduce contaminants in wastewater in order to develop a more accessible treatment option. They found that S platensis did reduce the concentration of pollutants present within simulated agricultural wastewater.

The authors investigate the relationship between self-esteem, social desirability, and emotion regulation in children and adolescents.

The authors examine the relationships between race, racist beliefs, and perceptions of beauty across cultures and generations.

The authors surveyed individuals diagnosed with coronary artery disease about their mental health to study a potential connection between coronary artery disease and depression.

The authors survey adolescents about aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic to explore perspectives that may give rise to cognitive dissonance.

Chronic wounds pose a serious threat to an individual’s health and quality of life. However, due to the severity and morbidity of such wounds, many pre-existing treatments are inefficient or costly. While the use of skin grafts and other such biological constructs in chronic wound healing has already been characterized, the use of umbilical cord tissue has only recently garnered interest, despite the cytokine-rich composition of Wharton’s jelly (cord component). Our current study aimed to characterize the use of an umbilical cord derived conditioned medium (UC-CM) to treat chronic wounds.
