Curcumin, a natural product, has exhibited promising effects in both animal models and clinical trials, interacting with multitude of factors linked to Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). These encompass cytokines, oxidative stress-associated enzymes, modulation the intestinal microbiota. Notably, curcumin demonstrated therapeutic potential colitis, wherein it exerts negative regulatory influence on pivotal signaling pathways such as PI3/Akt, JAK/STAT, β-catenin. Moreover, inhibits expression...
The objectives of the study were to investigate whether health conditions mothers with short stature differed from those normal stature, and establish if these aspects associated offspring. Data relating socio-economic, demographic anthropometric collected a probabilistic sample population consisting 1180 1511 children ( < 10 years) living in semi-arid region State Alagoas, Brazil. Mothers categorised according 1st quartile being defined as 4th serving reference for comparison variables...
The development and course of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are significantly influenced by inflammation oxidative stress. Antioxidant therapy is a promising therapeutic option to enhance the clinical results these individuals in this particular scenario. purpose study assess impact curcumin, with or without piperine, on cytokines, fecal calprotectin (CalF), stress enzymatic non-enzymatic indicators patients IBD.
The aim of the present study was to describe use tapering, carbohydrate (CHO) supercompensation, and supplementation strategies self-reported by athletes in Olympic triathlon category. A total 72 triathletes (61 males 11 females) answered an online questionnaire about their training performance, supercompensation strategies, supplementation, supplements other ergogenic substances. information summarized subjected descriptive analysis. Shapiro-Wilk test applied check data normality. t-test...

Objetivou-se identificar a prevalência e os fatores associados à insegurança alimentar (INSAN) em famílias do norte de Alagoas. Para isso, realizou-se estudo transversal com amostra probabilística 1.444 famílias. A INSAN (leve, moderada ou grave) foi definida segundo Escala Brasileira Insegurança Alimentar. Utilizou-se razão (RP), calculada por regressão Poisson, para avaliar associação da + grave as variáveis independentes, tanto na análise bruta como ajustada. Nesta, foram incluídas que...
malnutrition and sarcopenia are prevalent in individuals with cirrhosis, but their diagnosis remains challenging due to limited access suitable methods across different levels of healthcare. This study aimed identify the most effective method for diagnosing outpatients liver cirrhosis evaluate concordance between subjective objective diagnostic methods. patients aged ≥ 18 years a (regardless etiology) under outpatient care were included. Exclusion criteria were: a) neoplasia, b) acute...
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn's (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), lacks a known etiology. Although clinical symptoms, imaging, colonoscopy are common diagnostic tools, fecal calprotectin (FC) serves as widely used biomarker to track activity. Metabolomics, within the omics sciences, holds promise for identifying progression biomarkers. This approach involves studying metabolites in biological media uncover pathological factors. The purpose of this study was explore...

This study aims to evaluate the effects of diets deficient in choline and/or cystine on hepatocellular injury animal models (young male Wistar rats, aged 21 days), by monitoring some oxidative stress biomarkers and expression RAGE, TNF- α , IL-1 β . The animals were divided into 6 groups (<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"><mml:mi>n</mml:mi><mml:mo>=</mml:mo><mml:mn>10</mml:mn></mml:math>) submitted different over 30 days: AIN-93 diet (standard, St), (CD) (CCD)...
Lipoic acid (LA) and N ‐acetylcysteine (NAC) are antioxidant anti‐inflammatory agents that have not yet been tested on mild ulcerative colitis (UC). This study aims to evaluate the action of LA and/or NAC, oxidative stress inflammation markers in colonic hepatic rat tissues with UC, induced by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) (2% w/v). NAC (100 mg·kg·day −1 , each) were given, once a day, diet, pretreatment phase (7 days) during UC induction (5 days). Colitis was confirmed histological...
