Change Meat Resistance: Systematic Literature Review on Consumer Resistance to the Alternative Protein Transition.

Consumer resistance significantly impedes the transition from animal-derived proteins to alternative protein sources through a dual mechanism: consumer reluctance to change entrenched meat-eating habits and hesitation among policymakers, marketers, and practitioners due to anticipated resistance. The concept of resistance is intricate and viewed diversely across research disciplines. We conducted an extensive systematic literature review supplemented by an artificial intelligence-based approach.

Recovery from kidney failure associated with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension following pulmonary thomboendarterectomy.

The occurrence of renal failure in pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an ominous sign and implies excessive adverse hemodynamic factors. Pharmacologic agents to treat the PH are the mainstay of management, whereas diuretics assist in management of fluid overload. However, when such measures fail, dialysis and ultrafiltration (UF) become necessary to manage progressive azotemia and hypervolemia.

Acetylated oligopeptide and N-acetylcysteine protect against iron overload-induced dentate gyrus hippocampal degeneration through upregulation of Nestin and Nrf2/HO-1 and downregulation of MMP-9/TIMP-1 and GFAP.

Iron accumulation in the brain causes oxidative stress, blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, and neurodegeneration. We examined the preventive effects of acetylated oligopeptides (AOP) from whey protein on iron-induced hippocampal damage compared to N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). This 5-week study used 40 male albino rats.
