COVID-19, nutrition, and gender: An evidence-informed approach to gender-responsive policies and programs by Kalbarczyk, Anna, Aberman, Noora-Lisa, van Asperen, Bregje S. M., Morgan, Rosemary, Bhutta, Zulfiqar, Carducci, Bianca, Heidkamp, Rebecca, Osendarp, Saskia, Kumar, Neha, Lartey, Anna, Malapit, Hazel J., Quisumbing, Agnes R., Fabrizio, Cecilia

“…Our analysis and resultant evidence map illustrate how underlying inequitable norms such as gendered unprotected jobs, reduced access to economic resources, decreased decision-making power, and unequal gendered division of labor, were exacerbated by the pandemic's secondary containment efforts. Health and nutrition policies and interventions targeted to women and children fail to recognize and account for understanding and documentation of underlying gender norms, roles, and relations which may deter successful outcomes. …”

Ex-ante assessment of returns on research investments to address the impact of Fusarium Wilt tropical race 4 on global banana production by Staver, Charles, Pemsl, Diemuth E., Scheerer, Lars, Vicente, Luis P., Dita Rodriguez, Miguel Angel

“…As part of a multi-crop ex ante assessment of returns on research investments conducted by the CGIAR Research Program on Roots, Tubers, and Bananas (RTB) from 2012 to 2016, four FWB research options were assessed: (i) improved exclusion, surveillance, eradication, and containment (ESEC) measures to reduce Foc TR4 spread, (ii) integrated crop and disease management (ICDM) to facilitate production of partially FWB resistant cultivars on Foc-infested soils, (iii) conventional breeding of FWB-resistant cultivars (CBRC), and (iv) genetically modified (GM) FWB-resistant cultivars (GMRC). …”

Quantifying enteropathogen contamination along chicken value chains in Maputo, Mozambique: A multidisciplinary and mixed-methods approach to identifying high exposure settings by Lamar, F., Mucache, H.N., Mondlane-Milisse, A., Jesser, K.J., Victor, C., Fafetine, J.M., Saíde, J.Â.O., Fèvre, Eric M., Caruso, B.A., Freeman, M.C., Levy, K.

“…Exposure to enteropathogens in poultry feces increases the hazard of human infection and related sequela, and the burden of disease due to enteric infection in children < 5 y in particular is substantial. Yet, the containment and management of poultry-associated fecal waste in informal settings in LMICs is largely unregulated. …”

Bovine dendritic cell activation, T cell proliferation and antibody responses to foot-and-mouth disease, is similar with inactivated virus and virus like particles by Quattrocchi, Valeria, Bidart, Juan Esteban, Mignaqui, Ana Clara, Ruiz, Vanesa, Ferella, Alejandra, Langellotti, Cecilia Ana, Gammella, Mariela, Ferraris, Sergio, Carrillo, Jorge Ernesto, Wigdorovitz, Andres, Durocher, Yves, Cardillo, Sabrina Beatriz, Charleston, Bryan, Zamorano, Patricia Ines

“…Because of these disadvantages, investigations are being made to produce vaccines in low containment facilities. The use of recombinant empty capsids (also referred as Virus Like Particles, VLPs) has been reported to be a promising candidate as a subunit vaccine because it avoids the use of virus in the vaccine production and conserves the conformational epitopes of the virus. …”
