Ongoing outbreak of the novel coronavirus infectious disease 2019 (COVID- 19) constitutes a major global pandemic health care system challenge. Shortly following outbreak, like SARS-CoV virus, all affected countries are implementing various preventive and control measures to mitigate spread disease. Optimizing public during COVID-19 requires not only advanced medical biological sciences knowledge, but also human related social, as well nutritional behavior, lifestyle practices.
Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a type of systemic autoimmune condition triggered by gluten consumption among genetically predisposed individuals. Aim: To assess the knowledge, awareness, and practices pertaining to CD associated conditions dietitians in Jordan. Method: A cross-sectional web-based survey was carried out between April October 2023. The an internet-based questionnaire with closed-ended questions. Results: majority answered correctly that caused due immunological reaction...
Although increased carotid intima-media thickness (cIMT), soluble adhesion molecules and proinflammatory biomarkers are strongly implicated in the development of atherosclerotic lesions, role obesity metabolic syndrome (MetS) atherogenicity inflammation among schoolchildren is not well investigated.To determine levels cIMT, endothelial dysfunction inflammatory a group with MetS.Eighty-seven (age 10-15 years) were categorised into three groups: normal bodyweight group, obese severely MetS (17...
Background Increased carotid intima-media thickness is one of the predictors future cardiovascular diseases. However, it still unknown which body composition parameter or anthropometric measure best predictor for change among children and young adolescents. Objective To investigate associations measures with a group obese normal bodyweight schoolchildren. Methods A total 125 schoolchildren (10–15 years) were recruited from four public schools in Amman, Jordan. Of them, 60 (29 boys 31 girls)...
The objectives of this study were to determine the extraction yield and phytochemical composition different Artemisia herba-alba (AHA) extracts, as well investigate in-vitro their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-glycation, antibacterial activities. Four solvents with polarities used prepare AHA extracts. was determined using gravimetric method. qualitative analysis performed standard methods. quantitative analysis, anti-inflammatory activities estimated colorimetric anti-glycation...
Recently, significant attention has been given to the effects of obesity-inducing neuroinflammation on hypothalamus, particularly activation glial cells and neurodegenerative sequences. Understanding how high-fat diets provoke is essential propose preventative or management strategies combined with medication interventions such as liraglutide. Scientific studies related obesity diet (HFD) in adult humans rodents published PubMed, Science
This study was to determine serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D), the complement 3 (C3), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, their association with risk of insulin resistance (IR). A case-control carried out among 134 participants body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2 BMI=18.5-24.99 kg/m2. Anthropometric composition indicators were measured. Serum levels C3, CRP, 25(OH)D, insulin, glucose also IR assessed by homeostasis model assessment (HOMA-IR). HOMA-IR higher in obesity than that controls...
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the association between endogenous antioxidants and oxidative stress selected risk factors in obese children without co-morbidities.Methodology: A total of 121 school (58 63 normal weight), aged 10 15 years old were recruited from public schools Amman, Jordan.Levels antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration was used as a biomarker for measured.Fasting Blood Glucose...
