Abstract
Maternal educational attainment (MEA) shapes offspring health through multiple potential pathways. Differential DNA methylation may provide a mechanistic understanding of these long-term associations. We aimed to quantify the associations of MEA with offspring DNA methylation levels at birth, in childhood and in adolescence. Using 37 studies from high-income countries, we performed meta-analysis of epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) to quantify the associations of completed years of MEA at the time of pregnancy with offspring DNA methylation levels at birth (n = 9 881), in childhood (n = 2 017), and adolescence (n = 2 740), adjusting for relevant covariates. MEA was found to be associated with DNA methylation at 473 cytosine-phosphate-guanine sites at birth, one in childhood, and four in adolescence. We observed enrichment for findings from previous EWAS on maternal folate, vitamin-B12 concentrations, maternal smoking, and pre-pregnancy BMI. The associations were directionally consistent with MEA being inversely associated with behaviours including smoking and BMI. Our findings form a bridge between socio-economic factors and biology and highlight potential pathways underlying effects of maternal education. The results broaden our understanding of bio-social associations linked to differential DNA methylation in multiple early stages of life. The data generated also offers an important resource to help a more precise understanding of the social determinants of health.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the impact of ablative fractional carbon dioxide laser (AFCO2L) on patient-reported outcomes measures, subjective scar appearance, dermal architecture, and gene transcription in early burn scars. METHODS Fifteen adult patients with a burn-related scar were recruited. Inclusion criteria were two non-contiguous scar areas of 1% total body surface area, similar baseline Vancouver scar scale (VSS) score and 3months since the time of injury. All participants acted as their own control. Scars were randomized to treatment or control. Treatment scars received three AFCO2L treatments at 6-week intervals. Outcome measures were recorded at baseline, 3, 6, and 12-months post-treatment. Measures included blinded VSS, Patient Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS), Brisbane Burn Scar Impact Profile (BBSIP), blinded scar photo assessment, histological tissue analysis, and RNA sequencing analysis. RESULTS No significant difference was found in VSS, scar erythema, or pigmentation. Patient POSAS improved in scar thickness and texture following AFCO2L. All elements of BBSIP improved in control and laser groups. AFCO2L-treated scars were scored better than control scars by blinded raters. RNA sequencing illustrated that AFCO2L induced sustained changes in fibroblast gene expression. CONCLUSIONS AFCO2L treated scars had significantly altered scar thickness and texture 6 months post-laser and were rated better than controls on blinded photo analysis after 3 treatments. RNASeq results suggest laser treatment alters the transcriptome of treated fibroblasts for at least 3 months after treatment. Expansion of this research to study in more depth fibroblast changes in response to laser, as well as assessing the impact on daily activity and quality of life, will be beneficial.

Abstract
Characterizing genetic influences on DNA methylation (DNAm) provides an opportunity to understand mechanisms underpinning gene regulation and disease. In the present study, we describe results of DNAm quantitative trait locus (mQTL) analyses on 32,851 participants, identifying genetic variants associated with DNAm at 420,509 DNAm sites in blood. We present a database of >270,000 independent mQTLs, of which 8.5% comprise long-range (trans) associations. Identified mQTL associations explain 15-17% of the additive genetic variance of DNAm. We show that the genetic architecture of DNAm levels is highly polygenic. Using shared genetic control between distal DNAm sites, we constructed networks, identifying 405 discrete genomic communities enriched for genomic annotations and complex traits. Shared genetic variants are associated with both DNAm levels and complex diseases, but only in a minority of cases do these associations reflect causal relationships from DNAm to trait or vice versa, indicating a more complex genotype-phenotype map than previously anticipated.

Abstract
Over the last 35 years, researchers from the Laboratory of Biological Anthropology at the University of Kansas have been working with Mennonite communities to better understand evolutionary patterns of fission-fusion in relationship to their genetic history and population structure. In this study, short tandem repeat (STR) markers from the nonrecombining region of the Y chromosome (NRY) provided increased resolution of the molecular population structure for these groups. NRY is known to be informative for determining paternal genetic ancestral patterns in recently derived human populations. Mennonites represent a branch of the Anabaptist movement that began in northern and central Europe in the 16th century and maintain a well-documented migration and genealogical history. Provided this historical information, we investigated the genetic relationship of 15 NRY STR loci within five Mennonite communities from Kansas (Goessel, Lone Tree, Garden View, and Meridian) and Nebraska (Henderson). We sought to determine if patterns of fission/fusion along familial lines persisted with paternal genetic information as evidenced through other classical genetic polymorphisms and molecular markers. NRY haplotype information was obtained for 94 individuals, and genetic variation was analyzed and compared across the five study populations and comparative Anabaptist and European populations. NRY haplogroups were assigned using a Bayesian allele frequency approach with 14 STR loci. A total of 92 NRY haplotypes were detected, with none shared across these communities. The most prevalent NRY haplogroup was R1b, which occurred in 56% of the entire sample. Eight additional NRY haplogroups (E1b1b, G2a, I1, I2, J2a1, L, Q, and R1a) were detected in smaller frequencies. Principal component analysis of NRY data, in contrast to mitochondrial DNA data, displayed no patterns of population subdivision of these congregations into communities. These NRY genetic profiles provide additional information regarding the recent migratory history of Mennonite communities and additional evidence for fission along paternal lines after migration to the United States.

Abstract
Age is well-known to be a significant factor in both disease pathology and response to treatment, yet the molecular changes that occur with age in humans remain ill-defined. Here, using transcriptome profiling of healthy human male skin, we demonstrate that there is a period of significantly elevated, transcriptome-wide expression changes occurring predominantly in middle age. Both pre and post this period, the transcriptome appears to undergo much smaller, linear changes with increasing age. Functional analysis of the transient changes in middle age suggest a period of heightened metabolic activity and cellular damage associated with NF-kappa-B and TNF signaling pathways. Through meta-analysis we also show the presence of global, tissue independent linear transcriptome changes with age which appear to be regulated by NF-kappa-B. These results suggest that aging in human skin is associated with a critical mid-life period with widespread transcriptome changes, both preceded and proceeded by a relatively steady rate of linear change in the transcriptome. The data provides insight into molecular changes associated with normal aging and will help to better understand the increasingly important pathological changes associated with aging.

Abstract
Mitochondrial DNA of Yakuts has been compared to those of other Asian populations that belong to the Turkic, Mongolic, and Manchu-Tungusic linguistic groups. Haplogroups C and D proved to be the most frequent ones in Yakuts. In contrast to other Asian populations, subcluster D5a is major in Yakuts. The results have demonstrated that Yakuts are close to Tuvinians and Altaians in maternal lineage.

Abstract
Newspapers and television daily attest to the fact that violence is a pervasive element in our society, especially among our youth. We have come to a point in this nation where we see violence everywhere. It is on the streets, in the workplace, and especially in the schools. How did this happen to our society? Is this unrivaled period of juvenile violent crime a new phenomenon? Our society demands that children have a safe environment in which to learn and grow, yet continued reports of youth violence indicates that our efforts have not been successful. Is violence prevention a myth or reality? Since children are our future, how can we provide them with the skills that will afford them the opportunity to become productive members of society?

Abstract
A study of isokinetic exercise and isotonic variable- resistance training divided 12 individuals into four groups: 1) control; 2) isotonic variable-resistance training; 3) low-speed isokinetic (5, 10, and 15 rpm); and 4) high-speed isokinetic training (30, 40, and 50 rpm). All exercised groups showed good gains in strength when tested isometrically, isotonically, and isokinetically. However, when the individuals were tested for motor performance, the high-speed isoki netic group dominated (5.38% gain in the vertical jump versus 3.87% for the slow isokinetic, and 1.57% for the isotonic variable resistance; 9.14% gain in the standing broadjump versus 0.42% and 0.28%; and 10.11% gain in the 40-yard dash versus 1.12% and 1.35%). Training should be specific in all training and reha bilitation programs, with the athlete/patient training in the manner most similar to his athletic event or per formance.

Abstract
A simplified test for endotoxemia was evaluated in parallel with 198 blood cultures from 115 neonates requiring transitional or intensive care. The Limulus assay disclosed endotoxemia in seven of eight patients with gram-negative bacteremia tested on one or two occasions. It was not specific for bacteremia, especially during the first week of life, when 37 of 112 tests from nonbacteremic infants (33%) were positive. In older infants, positive tests were obtained in only ten of 55 without bacteremia (18%) (P less than 0.07), six of whom had necrotizing enterocolitis as the likely source of endotoxemia. Gram-negative bacteremia existed in 5% of infants (two of 39) less than or equal to 7 days with positive tests and in 37% of older infants (six of 16) (P less than 0.01). Endotoxemia appears to be frequent among infants appearing to have sepsis and may contribute to neonatal morbidity. The Limulus assay may be a useful diagnostic test for coliform bacteremia and necrotizing enterocolitis beyond the first week of life.
