Effects of portable pedal machines at work on lipoprotein subfraction profile in sedentary workers - the REMOVE study
CONCLUSIONS: Lipoprotein profile was improved after a 12-week PPMs intervention at work in healthy administrative workers. Changes were mainly showed for LDL and LDL subfractions. Lipoprotein profile was worsened by stress at work, BMI and age.TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT04153214.PMID:38616275 | DOI:10.1186/s12944-024-02098-w (Source: Atherosclerosis)

Effects of portable pedal machines at work on lipoprotein subfraction profile in sedentary workers – the REMOVE study
Sedentary behaviour at work is a major cause of atherosclerosis, particularly in tertiary workers. However, no studies have ever assessed the effect of active workstation on lipoprotein subfraction profile. Th... (Source: Lipids in Health and Disease)

The carbon footprint of a surgical pathology laboratory in France
CONCLUSIONS: The pathology laboratory's carbon footprint was equivalent to the yearly carbon impact of 11 French inhabitants. This footprint is dominated by inputs and associated freight. This suggests an urgent need to develop ecodesign and self-sufficiency in our routine practices.PMID:38470223 | DOI:10.1093/ajcp/aqae022 (Source: American Journal of Clinical Pathology)

Determination of the volatile chemical profile of < em > Momordica charantia < /em > (bitter melon) leaf and fruit by GC-MS
Nat Prod Res. 2024 Mar 5:1-8. doi: 10.1080/14786419.2024.2325595. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe plant Momordica charantia (Cucurbitaceae), popularly known as bitter melon, snake fruit, Saint Vincent's herb, or little melon, is an African species that has developed in tropical and subtropical biomes in various parts of Brazil. The fruit is used in various traditional medicinal applications. The study aimed to identify the compounds of the essential oil of the leaves obtained by hydrodistillation and in the fruit through Solid-Phase Microextraction by headspace mode (HS-SPME) coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectromet...

Gastropod Slime-Based Gel as an Adjustable Synthetic Model for Human Airway Mucus
Biomacromolecules. 2023 Dec 20. doi: 10.1021/acs.biomac.3c01043. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAirway mucus works as a protective barrier in the human body, as it entraps pathogens that will be later cleared from the airways by ciliary transport or by coughing, thus featuring the rheological properties of a highly stretchable gel. Nonetheless, the study of these physical barrier as well as transport properties remains limited due to the restricted and invasive access to lungs and bronchi to retrieve mucus and to the poor repeatability inherent to native mucus samples. To overcome these limits, we report on a biobased synth...

A new declaration for feet's sake: Halving the global diabetic foot disease burden from 2% to 1% with next generation care
Diabetes Metab Res Rev. 2023 Nov 24:e3747. doi: 10.1002/dmrr.3747. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe 1989 Saint Vincent Declaration established a goal of halving global diabetes-related amputation rates. A generation later, this goal has been achieved for major but not minor amputations. However, diabetic foot disease (DFD) is not only a leading cause of global amputation but also of hospitalisation, poor quality of life (QoL) and disability burdens. In this paper, we review latest estimates on the global disease burden of DFD and the next generation care of DFD that could reduce this burden. We found DFD causes 2% of the ...
