Associations of Plastic Bottle Exposure with Infant Growth, Fecal Microbiota, and Short-Chain Fatty Acids

MICROORGANISMS, 11(12).

author keywords: anthropometry; plastic; microbiome; short-chain fatty acids
TL;DR: Plastic bottle frequency at 3 months was not strongly associated with measures of adiposity or growth (save for length-for-age) over the first year of life, and while plastic bottle use was associated with some features of fecal microbiota and SCFAs in the firstyear, these findings were attenuated in multivariable models with infant diet.

Analysis of DNA methylation at birth and in childhood reveals changes associated with season of birth and latitude

CLINICAL EPIGENETICS, 15(1).

By: L. Kadalayil*, M. Alam*, C. White*, A. Ghantous*, E. Walton*, O. Gruzieva*, S. Merid*, A. Kumar* ...

author keywords: PACE; Meta-analysis; Birth season; DNA methylation; Differentially methylated regions (DMR); Latitude
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for associations between DNAm and season of birth that are unique for the seasons of the year (temporal effect) and latitude-dependent variations in the seasonal associations (spatial effect) and for DNAm could play a role in the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of birth season on adult health outcomes.
