This paper evaluates the deceptive labeling of high-glycemic carbohydrates as generic "carbohydrates" rather than "sugar" on non-dairy creamer sachets in Nigeria, quantifying their associated public health risks and proposing a mandatory regulatory framework with specific caps on glycemic carbohydrates and fats to guide NAFDAC and SON.
Despite high awareness of breastfeeding's importance among lactating mothers in Aden, Yemen, a significant gap persists between knowledge and practice due to socio-cultural norms and systemic barriers, underscoring the urgent need for targeted educational programs and strengthened support services.
This retrospective cohort study of 3,781 patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention demonstrates that a higher admission atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is independently associated with an increased risk of 3-year major adverse cardiovascular events and provides significant incremental prognostic value beyond traditional risk factors and the GRACE score.
This Phase I clinical trial demonstrates that combining in vitro ovarian activation with Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cell injections is a safe and promising regenerative strategy for restoring ovarian function and menstrual cycles in women with premature ovarian failure, warranting further investigation in larger controlled studies.
This study of 1,204 overweight or obese Indonesians reveals that socioeconomic status influences sustained physical activity through the mediating role of mHealth utilization, with these relationships being significantly stronger in urban areas than in rural ones, thereby highlighting the urgent need for policies addressing digital health inequality to improve obesity management.
Using data from the 2020 Somali Health and Demographic Survey, this study reveals that under-five children living in households with high environmental risks, such as inadequate water and sanitation, face significantly higher odds of experiencing co-occurring fever, cough, and diarrhea compared to those in lower-risk environments.
This paper proposes and implements a reusable, situation-based information architecture for patient education, demonstrated through the bilingual AD Navigator tool, which organizes atopic dermatitis resources around patient scenarios rather than disease taxonomies to improve accessibility, readability, and source transparency for Traditional-Chinese and English speakers.
This study demonstrates that consistent and diverse mass sport participation significantly reduces the severity of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and social phobia among war victims, suggesting it is an effective community-based intervention for mental health promotion in conflict-affected areas.
This county-level ecological study of Tennessee and Virginia reveals that while Appalachian regions initially appear to have higher colorectal cancer mortality, this disparity is largely explained by underlying socioeconomic and structural factors rather than geographic designation alone, suggesting that targeted interventions addressing education, insurance coverage, and healthcare access are more effective than geographically defined approaches.
This scoping review synthesizes evidence from 21 preclinical studies demonstrating that dietary polyphenols (curcumin, EGCG, resveratrol, and quercetin) exhibit multi-target anti-fibrotic potential against oral submucous fibrosis by converging on key molecular pathways like the ROS/HIF-1α/TGF-β1-Smad axis, yet their clinical translation remains hindered by low bioavailability and a lack of human trials.
