Micronutrient intake and status in Central and Eastern Europe compared with other European countries, results from the EURRECA network
(Cambridge Univ Press, Cambridge, 2013)
Objective: To compare micronutrient intakes and status in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) with those in other European countries and with reference values. Design: Review of the micronutrient intake/status data from open ...
Consumption of pomegranate juice decreases blood lipid peroxidation and levels of arachidonic acid in women with metabolic syndrome
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
BACKGROUNDPomegranate juice is a rich source of polyphenols and is thus a promising dietary antioxidant with numerous health-promoting effects. These include a beneficial impact on cardiovascular health that could be partly ...
Effect of n-3 fatty acids on nutritional status and inflammatory markers in haemodialysis patients
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2007)
Aims: Nutrition as an aetiological factor participates a great deal in premature atherosclerosis in haemodialysis (HD) patients. The basic mechanisms of end-stage renal disease and premature atherosclerosis are connected ...
Interlimb Asymmetries and Ipsilateral Associations of Plantar Flexors and Knee Extensors Rate-of-Force Development Scaling Factor
(MDPI, Basel, 2020)
Rate of force/torque development scaling factor (RFD-SF/RTD-SF) was recently introduced as a tool to quantify the neuromuscular quickness, and it could have potential for interlimb asymmetry identification. Moreover, ...
Improving the reporting quality of intervention trials addressing the inter-individual variability in response to the consumption of plant bioactives: quality index and recommendations
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2019)
Key messages The reporting quality of human studies on inter-individual variation in response to plant bioactives is generally low and should be significantly improved. There is no specific guidance for reporting studies ...
Long-Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Are Associated with Blood Pressure and Hypertension over 10-Years in Black South African Adults Undergoing Nutritional Transition
(MDPI, Basel, 2019)
Nutritional transition in Africa is linked with increased blood pressure (BP). We examined 10-year fatty acid status and longitudinal associations between individual long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), BP and ...
Gene expression profile of circulating CD34(+) cells and granulocytes in chronic myeloid leukemia
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2015)
Purpose: We compared the gene expression profile of peripheral blood CD34(+) cells and granulocytes in subjects with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), with the accent on signaling pathways affected by BCR-ABL oncogene. ...
Impact of depression on gait variability in Parkinson's disease
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2021)
Objective
The goal of this study was to analyze how depression associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD) affected gait variability in these patients using a dual-task paradigm. Additionally, the dependency of the executive ...
Novel approach to analysing large data sets of personal sun exposure measurements
(Nature Publishing Group, New York, 2016)
Personal sun exposure measurements provide important information to guide the development of sun awareness and disease prevention campaigns. We assess the scaling properties of personal ultraviolet radiation (pUVR) sun ...
Low O-2 concentrations enhance the positive effect of IL-17 on the maintenance of erythroid progenitors during co-culture of CD34+and mesenchymal stem cells
(John Libbey Eurotext Ltd, Montrouge, 2009)
Co-culture of haematopoietic cells with a stromal cell layer does not mimic the physiological, micro-environmental niche, whose major feature is a low oxygen (O-2) concentration. Thus, in order to study the effects of IL-17 ...
