Participants received stool collection kits prior to their clinic visits and were instructed to collect three stool samples on three separate days on two timepoints (week 0 and week 8). Each stool collection kit contained three flushable stool collection sheets, three DNA/RNA Shield Fecal Collection tubes (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA) one biohazard bag, and detailed instructions for stool collection. Participants were asked to record the date and time of stool collection on each tube and store the tubes at room temperature until their clinic visit appointments. The time between collection of stool samples and the clinic visits ranged between one and six days. DNA was extracted from the frozen stool samples with the DNeasy PowerLyzer PowerSoil Kit (Qiagen, Germantown, MD, USA) per manufacturer’s protocol. A NanoDrop One (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Madison, WI, USA) was used to measure DNA concentration and diluted to 10 ng/μL. Next-generation sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene was performed. Amplicon PCR was performed on the V4 region of 16S rRNA using the forward (5′-GTGCCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA-3′) and reverse (5′-GACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT-3′) primers. PCR amplicons were barcoded and pooled in equal concentrations using the SequalPrep Normalization Plate Kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). qPCR was used to quantify and consolidate libraries using the Kappa Library Quantification Kit (Roche, Indianapolis, IN, USA), and the quality of the library will be determined by an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Positive and negative controls were sequenced for quality control. The ZymoBIOMICS™ Microbial Community Standard (Zymo Research, Irvine, CA, USA) were used to provide a commercial community DNA for a positive control, and DNA extraction and PCR amplification provided the negative controls. Sequencing was performed in a pair-end modality on the Illumina MiSeq 500 platform rendering 2 x 150 bp paired-end sequences (Illumina, San Diego, CA, USA)). Sequencing reads after quality control were denoised using Deblur integrated with QIIME2 (2022.02 released), alignment against a 16S reference database (SILVA v132), and clustering into amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) with 100% identity threshold. A total of 515 fecal samples were extracted for DNA and processed into QIIME2 pipeline. After filtering and denoising, 484 samples were retained for microbiome analysis. All biological samples were processed and stored at -70C until analysis. Blood was collected in two 8-mL tubes and left at room temperature for 30 minutes before centrifugation at 25C for 10 minutes at 1400 rpm. Serum was transferred to 1.5 mL cryogenic tubes in 1-mL aliquots. C-reactive protein (CRP) (RandD Systems, Minneapolis, MN - Cat#DCRP00), Angiopoetin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) also known as Fiaf (RandD Systems, Minneapolis, MN - Cat#DY3485), Oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) (RandD Systems, Minneapolis, MN – Cat#DY1798) and trimethylamine oxide (TMAO) (AFG Bioscience, Northbrook, IL - Cat#EK715704) were measured with commercial ELISA kits. Lipopolysaccharide Binding Protein (LBP) was measured by a Pierce LAL chromogenic endotoxin quantitation kit (Cat#88282, ThermoFisher Scientific, Waltham, MA). All analyses were conducted in the laboratory of Dr. Arikawa at the University of North Florida.

Abstract Background The role of dietary intake on precocious puberty remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between the amount and frequency of dietary intake and the risk of precocious puberty in Chinese girls. Methods In this case-control study, we enrolled 185 precocious puberty girls and 185 age-matched controls. Their dietary intake was assessed through a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire. Their sociodemographic and lifestyle data were collected. The associations between dietary intake and risk of precocious puberty were assessed by conditional logistic regression models. Results After multivariate adjustment, consuming a higher amount of red meat was associated with higher precocious puberty risk (OR = 2.74, 95% CI: 1.25–6.02), while a higher frequency of fruit ( P for trend = 0.024) and amount of vegetable intake was associated with a lower risk of precocious puberty (P for trend = 0.002). The high vegetable and protein dietary pattern was significantly negatively associated with precocious puberty (OR = 0.78, 95% CI: 0.63–0.97), whereas the high animal food and fruits dietary pattern was remarkably positively associated with precocious puberty (OR = 1.36, 95% CI: 1.09–1.69), after adjusting for age and body mass index. Conclusions High vegetable and protein dietary pattern is a protective factor against precocious puberty, while high animal food and fruits dietary pattern is a risk factor for precocious puberty in Chinese girls. Attentions should be paid to a reasonable intake of red meat, eggs, and fruits in children’s daily diet, increase their intake of vegetables, in order to reduce the risk of precocious puberty.

Bhatia, Lim and Yamazaki obtained results on the norm minimality of the Kubo-Ando Heinz means of positive semidefinite matrices. Namely, they proved that |||A♯αB+A♯1−αB|||≤|||AαB1−α+A1−αBα|||,for α∈(0,1), in the case of the Schatten 1-norm or 2-norm. In this article, we refine these results via the matrix function in the definition of the Rényi divergence. We show that four different types of inequalities hold, under certain conditions, for Schatten 1- and 2-norms.
