Herein, we report the abundance and prevalence of HMO-metabolizing genes, specifically those of Bifidobacterium infantis, in fecal samples from human infants. Forty dyads were enrolled, and each mother collected a fecal sample from her infant at six months of age. Genomic DNA was extracted, and quantitative real-time PCR was used to determine gene abundance. The mode of delivery was not associated with gene abundance. Several gene regions, Sia (a sialidase), B. inf (16S), and GH750 (a glycoside hydrolase), were more abundant in the feces of human milk-fed infants (p < 0.05). Others, Sia and HC bin (16S), tended to be less abundant when a larger percentage of an infant’s diet consisted of solids (p < 0.10). When accounting for solid food intake, human milk exposure was positively associated with Sia and B. inf (p < 0.05) and tended to be related to the abundance of the GH750 and HC bin (p < 0.10) gene regions. With further development and validation in additional populations of infants, these assays could be used to group samples by dietary exposure even where no record of dietary intake exists. Thus, these assays would provide a method by which infant human milk intake can be assessed quickly in any well-equipped molecular biology laboratory.

Directives for the development of a 4-dimensional theory of human behaviour are formulated and discussed. The 3 spatial dimensions length, height and depth, and time are used as points of departure from which psychic analogues are defined as fundamental constructs of human behaviour. The psychological sphere described by these 3 psychic dimensions together with orientation towards time are then used as a basis of typifying and classifying human behaviour. Possibilities for the further development and validation of the theory as well as some of its practical applications are discussed. Opsomming Riglyne vir die ontwikkeling van 'n 4-dimensionele teorie van menslike gedrag word geformuleer en bespreek. Die 3 ruimtelike dimensies naamlik hoogte, breedte en diepte en tyd word as vertrekpunt geneem en die psigiese analoë daarvan word as fundamentele konstrukte van menslike gedrag geformuleer en logies uitgebou. Die psigologiese ruimte (sfeer) wat deur die 3 psigiese dimensies (asse) beskryf word en die mens se tydoriëntasie word as basis gebruik vir die tipering en klassifisering van menslike gedrag. Enkele praktiese aanwendingsmoontlikhede en riglyne vir die verdere ontwikkeling en validering van die teorie word aan die hand gedoen.

Aim: The use of health-related social media forums by patients is increasing and the size of these forums creates a rich record of patient opinions and experiences, including treatment histories. This study aimed to understand the possibility of extracting treatment patterns in an automated manner for patients with renal cell carcinoma, using natural language processing, rule-based decisions, and machine learning. Patients & methods: Obtained results were compared with those from published observational studies. Results: 42 comparisons across seven therapies, three lines of treatment, and two-time periods were made; 37 of the social media estimates fell within the variation seen across the published studies. Conclusion: This exploratory work shows that estimating treatment patterns from social media is possible and generates results within the variation seen in published studies, although further development and validation of the approach is needed.

The overall aim of the current investigation was to develop and validate the initial version of the Minnesota Inference Assessment (MIA). MIA is a web-based measure of inference processes in K–2. MIA leverages the affordances of different media to evaluate inference processes in a nonreading context, using age-appropriate fiction and nonfiction videos coupled with questioning. We evaluated MIA’s technical adequacy in a proof-of-concept study. Taken together, the results support the interpretation that MIA shows promise as a valid and reliable measure of inferencing in a nonreading context for students in Grades K–2. Future directions involve further development of multiple, parallel forms that can be used for progress monitoring in K–2.
