Published: January 2024

La enfermedad de Alzheimer y la esclerosis múltiple son enfermedades neurodegenerativas de con tratamientos complejos y de costos elevados orientados a disminuir la progresión de la sintomatología. Sin embargo, a causa de la falta de terapias adecuadas y de los posibles efectos adversos ocasionados por tratamientos de primera línea, es necesario implementar mejores abordajes terapéuticos complementarios que no produzcan mayores efectos secundarios y mejoren la sintomatología de dichas patologías. La restricción calórica y el ayuno intermitente han demostrado ser estrategias novedosas y beneficiosas en enfermedades neurodegenerativas, a través de mecanismos inmunitarios, metabólicos y fisiológicos. Con el objetivo de determinar el uso del ayuno intermitente y la restricción calórica como tratamiento coadyuvante en esclerosis múltiple y enfermedad de Alzheimer, se realizó una revisión narrativa de artículos originales en revistas científicas, en idiomas inglés y español con una obsolescencia no mayor a cinco años. El uso de la restricción calórica y ayuno intermitente han generado cambios positivos produciendo disminución de estados proinflamatorios, estrés oxidativo y envejecimiento. Se consideran abordajes que modulan la progresión de la enfermedad y mejoran la función cognitiva por vías de señalización de monofosfato de adenosina cinasa, factor de crecimiento similar a la insulina, y la enzima sirtuina, generando un efecto neuroprotector.

Air quality is an important factor that affects the quality of people’s lives. With the development of the times, people’s health awareness is increasing. To truly enhance the well-being of all mankind, the author wants to figure out possible influencing factors of PM2.5 and forecast the concentration of it. The author gathers data from 2015 to 2023 and uses 4 different ways in analyzing influencing factors, then the author applies ARIMA model and LSTM model in forecasting. The author finds out that O3, precipitation, average 2-minute wind speed, and average relative humidity are nearly irrelevant to PM2.5 concentration; average air pressure and average temperature have no certainty effect on PM2.5 concentration; PM10, SO2, NO2, CO have a greater impact on PM2.5 concentration, and they are all positively correlated. As for forecasting models, LSTM model is better when performing long-step forecasts while ARIMA model is more accurate when performing short-step forecasts. These conclusions can be used by governments when forecasting relative parameters and they can take more accurate actions in dealing with PM2.5 pollution with the given influencing factors and their magnitudes.
