Folates in various African foods: Contents, Food processing and matrix effects
Int J Vitam Nutr Res. 2022 Jun 29. doi: 10.1024/0300-9831/a000759. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACT Poor folate status is implicated in a wide variety of health disorders including megaloblastic anaemia, neural tube defects, and cardiovascular diseases. Human diet remains the main provider par excellence. Despite several public-health options to overcome this micronutrient deficiency, dietary folate intakes of women of childbearing age and children are still below recommendations in many African countries. Therefore, this review aims at presenting the current knowledge on folate contents in various African foods, and on fola...

Thromboembolic complications of recreational nitrous oxide (ab)use: a systematic review
We report on the thromboembolic complications, a less known side effect, associated with recreational inhalation of nitrous oxide. An extensive literature search was performed for publications reporting on the thromboembolic complications associated with recreational nitrous oxide abuse. Data about sex, age, location of thrombosis, laboratory findings, therapy and outcome were collected. A total of 13 case reports or case series were identified comprising a total of 14 patients. The reported thromboembolic side effects included deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, mesenterial-, portal and splenic vein thrombosis, ce...

Frequency and utility of bone marrow examination in relapsed/ refractory immune thrombocytopenia
CONCLUSIONS: While routine BME is frequently performed in relapsed/refractory ITP, abnormal findings are rare. Future prospective studies are needed to help identify a subgroup of relapsed/refractory ITP who may benefit from BME.PMID:35751575 | DOI:10.1111/jth.15802 (Source: Thrombosis and Haemostasis)
