The objective of the present work was to examine the effect of incorporating spirulina powder (SP) in -type sausages made exclusively with camel meat, as well as to evaluate its physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory quality attributes and its prebiotic potential. The final purpose was to offer an innovative meat product to increase camel meat consumption. Several innovative fresh sausage formulations were developed using SP (00, 100, 250, and 500 mg/kg) and stored under vacuum conditions with refrigeration at 1 ± 1 °C for 35 days.

- Neonicotinoid pesticides, widely used to combat various insects, have shown to be toxic to invertebrates and possess potential non-acute toxicity in vertebrates, including rodents and possibly humans.
- A systematic review analyzed 99 studies on the health effects of seven specific neonicotinoids, revealing significant reproductive, liver, kidney, neurological, immune system, and oxidative stress effects, primarily on rodents, with some evidence for humans.
- Despite notable findings, the review calls for more research to deepen the understanding of the mechanisms behind neonicotinoid toxicity and the factors affecting their harmful effects.
The present work was framed to study the relationship between body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, and atherosclerosis risk factors on the basis of three lipid ratios in type 1 (T1D) and type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients. A prospective, comparative, and cross-sectional study was performed at the level of three health facilities in Sidi-Bel-Abbes city (north-western Algeria). Anthropometric parameters, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, and lipid profiles were assessed in adults T1D and T2D patients over a period of eleven months.

We assessed the utility of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in metabolic control for type 2 diabetic patients.
Methods: Fasting and postprandial blood samples were collected from 238 type 2 diabetic patients aged 57.
Aim: To assess the effect of Ramadan fasting on body weight and food consumption in type 2 diabetic obese women.
Materials And Methods: A total of 276 outpatient women receiving oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) (BMI = 34.63 +/- 3.
Objective: To examine the effect of fasting during Ramadan on certain serum components such as fasting serum glucose (FSG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs), high density lipoproteins (HDL-C), and low density lipoproteins (LDL-C) parameters in obese women patients with type 2 diabetes.
Methods: We conducted the study in Petit-Vichy Diabetology Center, Sidi-Bel-Abbes, Algeria from October 2003 to March 2004, on 60 obese outpatient women (BMI = 35.41 +/- 3.
