Indoor microbiome diversity among asthmatic and healthy children – Hidden life in bed dust
that may influence children’s respiratory health. Objective: The aim of this research was to compare microbiome diversity and abundance in bed dust samples from children with asthma and healthy children and to explore associations with household and environmental factors. Subjects and methods: Bed dust samples from 150 children (69 with asthma, 81 controls) were analyzed using 16S rRNA and ITS sequencing. Microbial diversity and community composi…
Stress, spirit and shape: Unpacking adolescent health in Zagreb high schools
Background: Adolescence is a critical period when stress may affect nutritional status and body composition. Spirituality, defined as meaningful connections with oneself, others, nature, and something beyond the self that promote purpose, joy, and inner peace, may support coping with stress and healthier lifestyles. However, its relationship with stress and nutritional status remains unclear. Objective: To examine the associations of perceived st…
Linking the bed dust microbiome with environmental factors and child respiratory health
Our results suggest significant differences in bacterial community composition between individuals with and without asthma and the interaction between indoor microbiome and asthma is mediated by environmental factors in the household
Linking infant size and early growth with maternal lifestyle and breastfeeding – the first year of life in the CRIBS cohort
Infant size and early growth in Croatia is in line with WHO standards and risk factors for obesity development were detectable in the first year of life, but not highly pronounced. However, more effective BMI monitoring and promotion of a healthy diet and lifestyle of women before and during pregnancy is needed
Machine Learning and Meteorological Normalization for Assessment of Particulate Matter Changes during the Covid-19 Lockdown in Zagreb, Croatia
In this paper, the authors investigated changes in mass concentrations of particulate matter (PM) during the Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) lockdown. Daily samples of PM 1 , PM 2.5 and PM 10 fractions were measured at an urban background sampling site in Zagreb, Croatia from 2009 to late 2020. For the purpose of meteorological normalization, the mass concentrations were fed alongside meteorological and temporal data to Random Forest (RF) …
