Bioactive-rich Sideritis scardica tea (mountain tea) is as potent as Camellia sinensis tea at inducing cellular antioxidant defences and preventing oxidative stress
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2013)
BACKGROUNDIn several countries, tea (hot-water infusions of dried Camellia sinensis (CS) leaves) is a major source of antioxidant flavonoids, and its consumption has been associated with several favourable outcomes. Other ...
Effect of iron intervention on growth during gestation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence: a systematic review with meta-analysis
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2013)
To evaluate the effect of iron intervention on physical growth in fetuses, infants, children, and adolescents up to 18 years of age, a systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was conducted. ...
EURRECA-Principles and Future for Deriving Micronutrient Recommendations
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
The EURopean micronutrient RECommendations Aligned (EURRECA) Network of Excellence (NoE) explored an approach for setting micronutrient recommendations, which would address the variation in recommendations across Europe. ...
BRCA1 and TOP2A gene amplification and protein expression in four molecular subtypes of breast cancer
(Srpsko biološko društvo, Beograd, i dr., 2013)
We studied TOP2A amplification (using FISH methods), and TOP2A and BRCA1 protein overexpression (immunohistochemistry) in four molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Of 53 patients, 32 showed TOP2A and 38 showed BRCA1 ...
EURRECA-Estimating Iron Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Currently, a factorial approach is used to derive reference values for iron. Calculations include the use of a bioavailability factor to convert the physiological requirement, derived from obligatory losses and requirements ...
EURRECA-Estimating Zinc Requirements for Deriving Dietary Reference Values
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2013)
Zinc was selected as a priority micronutrient for EURRECA, because there is significant heterogeneity in the Dietary Reference Values (DRVs) across Europe. In addition, the prevalence of inadequate zinc intakes was thought ...
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 ...
Globin gene expression in correlation with G protein-related genes during erythroid differentiation
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2013)
Background: The guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate cell growth, proliferation and differentiation. G proteins are also implicated in erythroid differentiation, and some of ...
Trunk muscle activation patterns in subjects with low back pain
(Vojnomedicinska akademija - Institut za naučne informacije, Beograd, 2013)
Diet and Physical Activity for the Prevention of Noncommunicable Diseases in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: A Systematic Policy Review
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2013)
Background: Diet-related noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) are increasing rapidly in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) and constitute a leading cause of mortality. Although a call for global action has been resonating ...
