There are several different categories into which the etiology of pancreatic disease can be subdivided, including inflammation, neoplasia, endocrine dysfunction, and genetic disorders. A comprehensive understanding of the pathogenesis of pancreatitis is necessary for the development of appropriate management methods and therapies, as the disorder has a complicated underlying pathophysiology. Complications such as Read More

The process known as “programmed cell death” is referred to as “apoptosis,” a term frequently used in scientific research. Typically, the body's own system eliminates damaged cells by identifying defective ones and activating their destruction in response to various signals. However, if its precise mechanisms are understood, apoptosis can also be intentionally induced by external factors. Herbal substances have been foun Read More

Luteolin, a flavonoid, has gained attention for its anti-obesity benefits. Luteolin has been shown to regulate multiple aspects of adipose tissue biology, including adipocyte differentiation and adipokine secretion. It prevents the formation of adipocytes by interfering with the expression of important transcription factors, such as PPAR-γ and C/EBP-β. Furthermore, luteolin possesses anti-inflammatory properties, inhibiting the Read More

The reduction in sugar consumption has led to increased use of low-calorie artificial sweeteners. This coincides with an increase in infertility rates, suggesting that low-calorie artificial sweeteners may negatively affect reproductive health. Low-calorie sweeteners may affect oxidative stress, glucose regulation, and the microbiota, which are associated with reproductive health. Therefore, a review was conducted to examine t Read More

BackgroundMetabolic syndrome, which is characterized by a constellation of well-known risk factors, including obesity, hyperlipidemia, insulin resistance, and hypertension, is associated with an elevated risk of developing diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Given the lifestyle change, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome has been growing worldwide in recent years. Accordingly, the pivotal role of diet in the progression o Read More

BackgroundIn Côte d’Ivoire, sorghum was most commonly used to produce beer. However, the population must focus on other sorghum uses. Sorghum possesses numerous health and nutritional benefits that must be explored, such as its involvement in diabetes management and prevention. Globally, the prevalence of diabetes is rising. Understanding the glycemic index (GI) is crucial for managing and preventing it Read More

BackgroundThe study was set up to investigate the toxicological effects of the aqueous extract of onion (Allium cepa L.) peel (OP) in rats, in vivo.MethodsA total of 30 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups. Acute oral toxicity was investigated using three different doses of OP, where the first group of rats was given distilled water and served as -ve control, the three rest groups given (250, 500 and 1000 mg/kg) of OP d Read More

AimThe present study aimed to investigate the awareness of practicing dietetic professionals regarding the nutritional management of cancer cachexia.BackgroundDue to the rising rates of cancer cachexia-related mortality, dietetic professionals have taken on an essential role in identifying and managing its associated symptoms through nutrition to reduce its escalating side effects.ObjectiveTo assess knowledge a Read More

BackgroundGambier leaf tea contains antioxidant compounds, but its astringent taste makes this tea less popular. The addition of coffee leaf powder and stevia not only reduces the astringent taste of this tea but can also increase the content of antioxidant compounds.ObjectiveThis research aimed to investigate the physical, chemical, functional, and organoleptic properties of gambir leaf tea incorporated with coffee Read More

BackgroundPostbiotics, also called biogenics, metabiotics, or Cell-Free Supernatants (CFS), are soluble compounds produced by live probiotic microorganisms or released after the lysis of probiotics that could provide beneficial health effects to the host.ObjectiveThis study was conducted with the aim of investigating the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, antioxidant, and cytotoxic effects of postbiotics derived from Lactobacillus aci Read More

BackgroundA blend of creatine nitrate and creatinine has demonstrated promising bioavailability; however, prior studies have not thoroughly examined its pharmacokinetics and safety profiles, particularly its impact on kidney stress indicators, such as serum cystatin C.ObjectiveThis study aimed to assess the effects of varying doses of creatine nitrate-creatinine intervention on pharmacokinetics and safety in healthy huma Read More
