Self-disgust as a potential mechanism underlying the association between body image disturbance and suicidal thoughts and behaviours

This study examined whether self-disgust added incremental variance to and mediated the multivariate association between measures of body image disturbance and suicidal thoughts and behaviours. We hypothesized that self-disgust would be associated with suicidal ideation above the effects of body image disturbance, and that self-disgust would mediate the relationship between body image disturbance and suicidal…Continue Reading Self-disgust as a potential mechanism underlying the association between body image disturbance and suicidal thoughts and behaviours

Livestock microbial landscape patterns: Retail poultry microbiomes significantly vary by region and season

Microbes play key roles in animal welfare and food safety but there is little understanding of whether microbiomes associated with livestock vary in space and time. Here we analysed the bacteria associated with the carcasses of the same breed of 28 poultry broiler flocks at different stages of processing across two climatically similar UK regions over two seasons with…Continue Reading Livestock microbial landscape patterns: Retail poultry microbiomes significantly vary by region and season
