Shared Lifestyle-Related Risk Factors of Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer: Evidence for Joint Prevention
ScientificWorldJournal. 2023 Jul 22;2023:2404806. doi: 10.1155/2023/2404806. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTCardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer are leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide and are the major focus of the World Health Organization's joint prevention programs. While, diverse diseases, CVD and cancer, have many similarities. These include common lifestyle-related risk factors and shared environmental, metabolic, cellular, inflammatory, and genetic pathways. In this review, we will discuss the shared lifestyle-related and environmental risk factors central to both diseases and how the strategies common...

Fractionation and Antibacterial Evaluation of the Surface Compounds from the Leaves of < em > Combretum zeyheri < /em > on Selected Pathogenic Bacteria
In conclusion, C. zeyheri leaf surface compounds exhibited antibacterial activity. The crude extract and the pooled fractions showed concentration-dependent inhibition of growth on S. aureus. Results from this study indicate the potential of C. zeyheri as a source of lead compounds that may be further developed into antibacterial drugs.PMID:37520845 | PMC:PMC10382245 | DOI:10.1155/2023/2322068 (Source: The Scientific World Journal)
