Neurotropic viruses are the most common cause of infectious encephalitis and highly target neurons for infection. Our understanding of the intrinsic capacity of neuronal innate immune responses to mediate protective antiviral responses remains incomplete. Here, we evaluated the role of intercellular crosstalk in mediating intrinsic neuronal immunity and its contribution to limiting viral infection.

We have previously described the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil extracted from the wild olive tree (Olea europaea var. sylvestris, acebuche, ACE) against hypertensive ocular damage.

Objective: Low Glycemic Index (GI) diets improve cardiometabolic risk (CMR) specifically in those with insulin resistance. However, the prospective association between pasta (a low GI staple) consumption and CMR is unclear. We evaluated the longitudinal association of pasta consumption with CMR (after 2 y: body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), blood pressure (BP); after 1 y: fasting blood glucose, HbA1c, HDL-cholesterol and triglycerides) in ∼6000 older adults (50% women) at high CMR.

Few studies have analysed whether the pandemic negatively impacted patients with head and neck malignant tumours diagnosed during this period. This study aims to determine if there were differences in oncological outcomes between patients diagnosed during the pandemic and those diagnosed previously.
