The influence of traceability label trust on consumers' traceability pork purchasing behavior: Based on the moderating effect of food safety identification.

Based on 908 consumer questionnaire data from 15 urban areas in Shanghai, we use the binary logit model to empirically analyze the impact of traceability label trust on consumers' traceable pork purchase behavior and the moderating effect of food safety identification. After constructing the theoretical analysis framework, this paper verifies it from the two aspects of statistical analysis and econometric analysis and tests the robustness of the final results. The results show that: first, traceability label trust has a significant positive impact on consumers' traceability pork behavior. Second, food safety identification can significantly strengthen and promote this process. Third, consumers' purchasing behavior is significantly positively affected by traceable pork consumption scenarios and price labels, but the permanent elderly in the composition of family members significantly negative impact on it. Therefore, we put forward relevant policy suggestions, such as strengthening the knowledge popularization and publicity based on the advantageous commodity attributes of traceable pork, carrying out food safety knowledge popularization education, and enhancing consumers' risk perception and food safety identification ability.

Understanding the Gut-Kidney Axis in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis: An Analysis of Gut Microbiota Composition.

Increasing evidence suggested that gut microbiota played critical roles in developing autoimmune diseases. This study investigated the correlation between gut microbiota and antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) with kidney injury. We analyzed the fecal samples of 23 AAV patients with kidney injury using a 16s RNA microbial profiling approach. The alpha-diversity indexes were significantly lower in AAV patients with kidney injury than healthy controls (Sobs P < 0.001, Shannon P < 0.001, Chao P < 0.001). The beta-diversity difference demonstrated a significant difference among AAV patients with kidney injury, patients with lupus nephritis (LN), and health controls (ANOSIM, p = 0.001). Among these AAV patients, the Deltaproteobacteria, unclassified_o_Bacteroidales, Prevotellaceae, Desulfovibrionaceae Paraprevotella, and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group were correlated negatively with serum creatinine, and the proportion of Deltaproteobacteria, unclassified_o_Bacteroidales, Desulfovibrionaceae, Paraprevotella, and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group had a positive correlation with eGFR. In conclusion, the richness and diversity of gut microbiota were reduced in AAV patients with kidney injury, and the alteration of gut microbiota might be related with the severity of kidney injury of AAV patients. Targeted regulation of gut microbiota disorder might be a potential treatment for AAV patients with kidney injury.
