Background: Obesity is a global health issue influenced primarily by genetic variants and environmental factors. This study aimed to examine the relationship between genetic and lifestyle factors and their interaction with obesity risk among university students.
Methods: A total of 658 students from the same university participated in this study, including 531 females (mean age (SD): 21.
The C3f peptide is a by-product of regulation of the activated complement system with no firmly established function of its own. We have previously shown that C3f exhibits moderate antimicrobial activity against some Gram-positive bacteria . Presence of two histidine residues in the amino acid sequence of the peptide suggests enhancement of its antimicrobial activity at lower pH and in the presence of metal cations, particularly zinc cations.

- - The study compared digital phenotyping with traditional monitoring methods in 800 patients with arterial hypertension over three years, focusing on lifestyle interventions aimed at improving various health metrics.
- - Significant improvements were observed in the experimental group, including a notable reduction in systolic blood pressure (by 10 mmHg), heart rate (by 5 beats per minute), and stress levels, alongside increases in physical activity and sleep quality.
- - The research highlights the effectiveness of comprehensive lifestyle changes in managing hypertension and suggests the need for further studies to optimize these intervention strategies for better societal health outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- - Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a group of disorders where small blood vessel clotting causes organ damage, including conditions like thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS), each with unique causes and impacts on health.
- - In TMA, inflammation leads to endothelial damage and activates platelet and coagulation processes, often linked to low ADAMTS13 enzyme levels, particularly in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, which raises thrombotic risk by increasing the VWF/ADAMTS13 ratio.
- - Treatment focuses on diagnosing the specific cause and may include therapies to inhibit complement activation, supportive care, and plasmapheresis
The constant increase in the number of neurotraumas in the country leads to an increase in forensic examinations of a persons. In Russia, about 600 thousand people receive craniocerebral injuries annually, of which 50 thousand die, others are potentially will be in forensic examination during or after treatment. With an increase in the total number of such examinations, the number of erroneous conclusions is expected to increase.
