Advancing functional food regulation
Authors: Martirosyan Danik , Stratton Sarah
Published: July 2023

The increasing demand for functional foods, stemming from the growing health consciousness among consumers and their preference for products that provide more than just basic nutrition, presents both opportunities and challenges for regulatory agencies, notably the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Functional foods lack a specific regulatory category, leading to uncertainties for manufacturers and consumers. Collaboration between the FDA and the Functional Food Center (FFC) is proposed as a solution to enhance functional food regulation. The FFC's expertise in biomedical sciences and its 17-step process for defining functional foods can contribute valuable scientific research and aid the FDA's evaluation process. By fostering collaboration, both organizations can ensure consumer protection and promote public health while meeting the growing demand for functional foods. Keywords:Functional foods, health claims, regulation, functional food definition, consumer demand, collaboration

Authors: Boszkiewicz Kamila , Piwowar Agnieszka
Published: July 2023

One third of breast cancer patients also suffer from diabetes, which is associated with a 40% higher risk of mortality. Patients undergoing anti-cancer treatment are also exposed to xenoestrogens present in everyday life, which may affect the effectiveness of the therapies used. The purpose of our study was to analyzed the effect of metalloestrogens (Al, Cr[III]) on the effectiveness of aromatase inhibitors (AIs) under high glucose conditions prevailing in the cellular model. On two human breast cancer cell lines—MCF-7 and MCF-7/DOX—a cell viability assay, a flow cytometer analysis of apoptosis, and protein activity of BAX, Bcl-2, and VEGF-A by ELISA were carried out. Results were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, followed post hoc by Tukey’s multiple comparisons tests. High glucose conditions reduced the effectiveness of AIs in both cell lines (decreased cytotoxicity, inhibition of apoptosis, increase in Bcl-2/BAX ratio and angiogenesis), regardless of the combination with metalloestrogens. Hyperglycemia may affect the effectiveness of AIs to a greater extent than metalloestrogens alone - the activity of drugs in the presence of high glucose concentrations was significantly lower, regardless of the combination with metalloestrogens, which indicates the key role of hyperglycemia in attenuating their activity. Therefore controlling hyperglycemia and individualized treatment regimens in cancer patients with diabetes may have important therapeutic implications.
Perception of Biodiversity versus Connection to Nature: Which Can Influence Wildlife Product Consumption in Vietnam?
Authors: Han Bingxue , Guan Hongyi
Published: July 2023

Wildlife product consumption (WPC) is a serious conservation challenge for biodiversity loss in Vietnam. A better understanding of socio-demographic factors, connection to nature (CTN) and perception of biodiversity (POB) behind WPC would improve wildlife protection. Using publicly available survey data, a preliminary investigation is conducted to explore the roles of socio-demographic factors, CTN, and POB in WPC. The computational outcomes of Bayesian logistic regressions indicate that POB and CTN are associated with consumption for bush meat, traditional medicine, and skin/leather/fur product, respectively. The structural equation models indicate that CTN mediates the association between POB and WPC. Based on the empirical results, financial penalties are advised to reduce WPC.

Skabies merupakan penyakit kulit disebabkan oleh infestasi dan sensitisasi Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis. Prevalensi skabies mencapai lebih dari 20% pada negara berkembang dan terutama menyerang anak-anak. Skabies lebih banyak ditemukan pada lokasi populasi padat dengan kontak langsung ataupun tidak langsung cukup tinggi, seperti di pondok pesantren. Kegiatan penyuluhan dan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk memberi informasi terkait penyakit skabies pada santri dan melakukan skrining faktor risiko skabies di Pondok Pesantren Darussalam Prabumulih. Hasil skrining dengan kesioner menunjukkan bahwa responden memiliki risiko infestasi skabies cukup besar berdasarkan penilaian dari 4 faktor risiko utama. Hasil anamnesis dan pemeriksaan fisik terhadap 49 santri menunjukkan 19 santri (38,7%) dengan infestasi skabies dan 30 santri (61,3%) bebas dari infestasi skabies. Penyuluhan ini diharapkan dapat membantu menurunkan angka infestasi skabies pada lokasi hunian padat, terutama di pondok pesantren.
Generációváltás Közép-Ázsiában: biztonság és stabilitás Mirzijojev és Tokajev hatalomra kerülése után
Authors: Szálkai Kinga
Published: July 2023

Az elmúlt öt év jelentősen átrajzolta Közép-Ázsia regionális biztonsági viszonyait, amiben kulcsfontosságú szerepet játszott, hogy a térség két vezető államában közel három évtized után először történt vezetőváltás: Üzbegisztán elnöki székében 2016 óta Savkat Mirzijojev ül, Kazahsztán vezetője pedig 2019 óta Kaszim-Zsomart Tokajev. A térség biztonságát és stabilitását nagymértékben meghatározza, hogy államainak autoriter vezetői milyen személyes döntéseket hoznak, illetve milyen prioritásrendszerek mentén gondolkodnak, a jelenleg zajló generációváltás így az öt köztársaság függetlenedése óta a legnagyobb jelentőségű átalakulást indította meg a régióban. Jelen tanulmány célja, hogy áttekintse és értékelje a Mirzijojev és Tokajev hatalomra jutása által hozott legfontosabb változásokat, azok regionális hatásait, illetve korlátait. A tanulmány elsőként az üzbegisztáni és kazahsztáni belső reformokat elemzi, majd rátér a regionális együttműködés eredményeinek áttekintésére, végül a térségben érdekelt nagyhatalmakkal való viszony változásaira fókuszál.

Published: July 2023

Purpose: The current research aims to examine the effect of taping on the feedforward activity of the lower limb muscles in elite volleyball players with and without chronic ankle instability while performing single-leg jump-landing. Methods: The electromyographic activities of the lateral gastrocnemius, tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, rectus femoris, gluteus medius, and vastus lateralis of the non-dominant leg were registered before and after taping in 26 volleyball players while performing the spike skill with single-leg landing. These volleyball players entered the research by purposive sampling. The root mean square (RMS) was employed to compute muscle activity before and after taping. The multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) test at P≤0.05 was utilized to analyze the data. Results: The results of the multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) test demonstrated that the groups did not have a significant factor in any of the variables in the feedforward phase, except for the maximum root mean square (RMS) of the peroneus longus muscle (P=0.01). Conclusion: The results showed that taping cannot improve the feedforward activity of the selected muscles during single-leg landing in people with chronic ankle instability. Therefore, it is recommended to use other methods and exercises to improve the muscle feedforward activity in these individuals during the rehabilitation phases.

On daily practice, during the making of reports, anatomical variants often appear, as well as injuries and different pathologies of the central nervous system (CNS) in which it is necessary to take some kind of measurements, to make an accurate diagnosis. These measurements allow the practicing physician to program and perform minimally invasive therapeutic methods or others that request a surgery of greater relevance. In this paper, we describe the most common measurements in the CNS by using computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Juvenile Ovarian Granulosa Cell Tumor - A Case Report
Authors: Quero Rubí , Camacho Manuel , Mundaraín Yubisay
Published: July 2023

The granulosa cell tumor is an unusual ovarian tumor, even more so in pediatric age. The literature indicates that the prevalence and the incidence is more higher in patients after the fifth decade of the life with a frequency of 3.4 % of all ovarian malignancies, since most of them correspond to the benign pathologies. The tumor produces symptoms derived from the secretion of the estradiol. The granulosa cell tumor has been described as better prognosis, less aggressive than other ovarian neoplasms and the natural history was longer. Surgery is the main diagnostic, staging and therapeutic approach. The adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended only in the early stages with risk factors or in the advanced stages, as it can improve disease-free and relapse-free survival rates, such as radiation therapy. So far, the most commonly used regimens are bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin, with a high reaction rate. Whenever possible, surgical rescue is proposed.
Surface Engineering - Application on Wear
Authors: Martinez Pérez Francisco
Published: July 2023

In this article, engineering surface application is introduced as a new concept. The basis of this concept is the understanding that different surface technologies are applied to the design of existing engineering components, but, it is necessary to know that surface engineering would cover only part of the design of the component, the surface treatment to be applied should also be known. This is because, surfaces with a high index of hardening due to deformation, are resistant to severe adhesive wear, abrasion and pickling, but they should not have the same resistance to other types of wear. It means that a correlation must be established between the surface quality and the pickling resistance. In this article, it is shown that the use of high compatibility metallic materials is preferred and that a correlation can be established between the surface quality and the pickling resistance by a simple number. The selection of materials and methods of obtaining the engineering surfaces for tribological applications, depends to a large extent on the mechanism and particular type of predominant wear. Therefore, the selection of materials resistant to wear will be analyzed depending on the type of wear in question.

Authors: Deulofeu Eduardo Rafael Álvarez
Published: July 2023

This paper evaluate the influence of the dead load reduction in the seismic design of a public building to be built at the zone of bigger seismic hazard of Cuba on a soil type D by Cuban seismic code NC 46:2017. The evaluation was carried out by comparing the structural design of a heavy and a lightened variant, based on the design of the critical sections of the superstructure including the joints. The seismic solicitations by static equivalent method are offered by computers program SAP 2000NL version and combined with gravitational loads by actual Cuban code. The structural design was carried out by the limit resistant capacity method, using the Excel Workbook DISRESPLAS and consulting the design formulations in international reference standards. Finally, it is shown that a moderate reduction of dead load significantly rationalizes the structural design and simplifies the construction details, in particular, the joints.
