Article Synopsis
- Dietary guidelines suggest replacing animal protein with plant protein, but the optimal plant-to-animal protein ratio (P:A) for health benefits is still unclear.
- The study analyzed data from three large cohorts totaling over 200,000 participants and found that a higher P:A ratio was linked to a significantly reduced risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and coronary artery disease (CAD), although it did not affect stroke risk.
- Overall, the research indicates that increasing plant protein at the expense of animal protein can benefit heart health, particularly by substituting red and processed meats with plant-based options.
Article Synopsis
- This study focuses on enhancing empathy in telehealth visits (e-empathy) for Black American patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) to improve discussions about care goals and address racial disparities in healthcare.
- Using a qualitative case study design, the research involved semi-structured interviews and feedback from a Stakeholder Advisory Group, with data analyzed through thematic analysis.
- The findings emphasize the importance of e-empathy, respect, and effective communication in telehealth settings, recommending culturally targeted guidance while acknowledging limitations and calling for future efforts to address healthcare disparities.
Purpose: Significant disparities exist in cancer detection, treatment, and outcomes for racial/ethnic minoritized groups in the US. The objective of this study was to explore racial/ethnic disparities in healthcare utilization, cancer care experiences, and beliefs about cancer in patients diagnosed with cancer among diverse racial/ethnic groups in the US.
Methods: Data from the Health Information National Trends Survey -Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (HINTS-SEER 2021) were analyzed for 1,108 cancer survivors.
Article Synopsis
- Mycotoxin contamination in corn is a significant risk factor for poultry production, with common mycotoxins including fumonisin (FUM), deoxynivalenol (DON), aflatoxin (AFB1), and zearalenone (ZEA) detected in all corn samples studied.
- Almost all samples (81.71%) contained multiple mycotoxins, with 38.41% showing two, 36.59% showing three, and 4.88% showing all four types of mycotoxins.
- The study found that different mycotoxins impacted the nutrient content of corn differently, affecting levels of fat, starch, protein, and moisture, indicating that co-contamination
Purpose: Prospective motion correction (PMC) with inductively-coupled wireless NMR markers has been shown to be an effective plug-and-play method for dealing with head motion at 7 Tesla [29,30]. However, technical challenges such as one-to-one identification of three wireless markers, generation of hyper-intense marker artifacts and low marker peak SNR in the navigators has limited the adoption of this technique. The goal of this work is to introduce solutions to overcome these issues and extend this technique to PMC for brain imaging at 3 Tesla.
