Despite a large number of studies examining the impact of saffron supplementation on OS, inflammation, and renal and liver function parameters, no systematic review or meta-analysis has been conducted to compile the outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Objective: The current systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to investigate the effect of saffron or crocin intake on OS, inflammation, and renal and liver function parameters in patients with T2DM.
Article Synopsis
- * Herbal medicine, particularly curcumin from turmeric, shows promise as a source of anti-cancer products due to its various health benefits, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
- * Recent research indicates that curcumin can influence noncoding RNAs (like lncRNAs and circRNAs) in cancer, suggesting a mechanism by which it supports tumor suppression and may guide future cancer therapies.
Background: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) offers substantially improved function for patients with severe osteoarthritis, but long-term success can be overshadowed by aseptic loosening, a complication with a multifactorial etiology. This study aims to investigate the association between BMI and the rate of aseptic loosening and other complications in patients undergoing primary TKA.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined 354 TKA patients, evenly categorized by BMI (≤ 30 kg/m² and > 30 kg/m²).
