Abstract:
... Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a global health concern. Vascular dysfunction is an aspect of CVD, and novel treatments targeting vascular physiology are necessary. In the endothelium, eNOS regulates vasodilation and mitochondrial function; both are disrupted in CVD. (–)-Epicatechin, a botanical compound known for its vasodilatory, eNOS, and mitochondrial-stimulating properties, is a potential the ...

Abstract:
... The ability to comprehensively assess the diet of infants is essential for monitoring adequate growth; however, it is challenging to assess dietary intake with a high level of accuracy. Infants rely on surrogate reporting by caregivers. This study aimed to determine if surrogate reporters (e.g., caregivers) could use an image-based mobile food record adapted (baby mFR) to record infants’ eating oc ...

Abstract:
... Few studies have investigated the influence of infant formulas made with added corn-syrup solids on the development of child eating behaviors. We examined associations of breastmilk (BM), traditional formula (TF), and formula containing corn-syrup solids (CSSF) with changes in eating behaviors over a period of 2 years. Feeding type was assessed at 6 months in 115 mother–infant pairs. Eating behavi ...

Abstract:
... Previous observational studies have highlighted associations between adipokines and hyperuricemia, as well as gout, but the causality and direction of these associations are not clear. Therefore, we attempted to assess whether there are causal effects of specific adipokines (such as adiponectin (ADP) and soluble leptin receptors (sOB-R)) on uric acid (UA) or gout in a two-sample Mendelian randomiz ...

Abstract:
... In diabetic patients, the metabolism of excess glucose increases the toxicity of the aldehyde group of sugar. Aldehydes, including glyceraldehyde (GA), react with intracellular proteins to form advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), which deteriorate bone quality and cause osteoporosis. One of the causes of osteoporotic fractures is impaired osteoblast osteogenesis; however, the cytotoxic effects ...
