Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how lifestyle habits like physical activity, screen time, sleep, and diet affect abdominal obesity and various health biomarkers in adolescents with Down syndrome.
- Researchers analyzed data from 83 adolescents and categorized them into three groups based on their lifestyle compliance: low, medium, and high.
- Findings showed that those with higher compliance had lower levels of unhealthy biomarkers and abdominal obesity, indicating that better lifestyle choices lead to improved health outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- * By September 2023, 17 countries in the Americas had reported cases of H5N1, with Argentina confirming its first case in wild birds in February 2023, which later affected local poultry and sea lions.
- * Epidemiological data indicate the avian virus likely entered Argentina multiple times, primarily through migratory birds, making ongoing surveillance and preparedness essential for public health safety.
Introduction: People with HIV (PWH) with poor immune response despite adequate antiretroviral treatment (ART) are susceptible to non-AIDS-related health issues. This study seeks to evaluate bone quality in Immunological Non-Responders (INRs) in comparison to those with proper immune response (IRs) using in vivo microindentation to quantify bone quality, in addition to conventional bone mineral density (BMD) evaluations.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Hospital del Mar in Barcelona from January 2019 to June 2023.
Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for maize ( L.) growth and development. Therefore, generating cultivars with upgraded P use efficiency (PUE) represents one of the main strategies to reduce the global agriculture dependence on phosphate fertilizers.

PAH are lipophilic and highly toxic environmental pollutants that accumulate in human and animal tissues. Environmental factors related to climate change, such as an increase in frequency and intensity of wildfires or enhanced strength of hurricanes or tropical cyclones, may lead to redistribution of these toxicants and enhanced human exposure.
