Consumption of a Probiotic Blend with Vitamin D Improves Immunity, Redox, and Inflammatory State, Decreasing the Rate of Aging-A Pilot Study.

There is evidence of the effect of probiotic intake on the immune system. However, the effect probiotics may have on the rate of aging is unknown. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of a probiotic blend on immunity, redox state, inflammation, and the rate of aging or biological age.

Human Supplementation with AM3, Spermidine, and Hesperidin Enhances Immune Function, Decreases Biological Age, and Improves Oxidative-Inflammatory State: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

The positive effect of AM3, spermidine, and hesperidin, which have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, on immunity is known, but their effect on the rate of aging, known as biological age (BA), is unclear. This work aims to test if the intake of a blend of AM3 (150 mg), spermidine (0.6 mg), and hesperidin (50 mg) for 2 months could decrease BA and improve immunity, redox, and inflammatory states.

The 100 most influential articles in mouth breathing. A bibliometric and altmetric analysis: 2002-2021.

Background: This study aimed to identify and analyze the most influential Mouth Breathing (MB) articles in children and adolescents with the highest relative citation rates (RCRs), through bibliometric and altmetric analysis, from 2002 to 2021.

Material And Methods: On March 27, 2023 a PubMed search was conducted to detect papers published about MB. From a total of 826 documents, the article data were downloaded from iCite database.

Concurrent validity of novel smartphone-based apps monitoring barbell velocity in powerlifting exercises.

The aim of this study was to determine the validity of three smartphone applications measuring barbell movement velocity in resistance training and comparing them to a commercially available linear transducer. Twenty competitive powerlifters (14 male and 6 female) completed a progressive loading protocol in the squat, bench press and deadlift (sumo or conventional) until reaching 90% of the highest load they had achieved in a recent competition. Mean velocity was concurrently recorded with three smartphone applications: Qwik VBT (QW), Metric VBT (MT), MyLift (ML), and one linear transducer: RepOne (RO).
