Tea consumption and risk of bone health: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis.

Introduction: Current research evaluating the association between tea consumption and bone health still has inconsistent findings.

Materials And Methods: The electronic databases of Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were systematically searched from inception until December 2022 to identify eligible studies. The calculation of summary relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was carried out using random-effects models.

Coffee, Green Tea Intake, and the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies.

Several studies suggest an inverse relationship between coffee intake and risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), but the association between green tea intake and the risk of HCC is still inconclusive. We performed a meta-analysis of observational studies to clarify the association. We identified eligible studies published from January 1, 1992, to February 28, 2022, by searching PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE.

Meat Intake and the Risk of Bladder Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies.

The evidence for the association between meat intake and the risk of bladder cancer (BC) is still inconclusive. A total of 29 studies involving 1,475,125 participants and 18,836 cases of BC were included in the meta-analysis. Among these studies, 11 reported total meat intake, 20 reported red meat intake, 19 reported processed meat intake, 15 reported white meat intake, and 15 reported fish intake.

Aqueous extract of Polygonatum sibiricum ameliorates glucose and lipid metabolism via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in high-fat diet and streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice.

This study was aimed to investigate the protective effects and elucidate the mechanisms of aqueous extract of Polygonatum sibiricum (PSAE) on glucolipid metabolism during the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). C57BL/6J mice fed with 60% high-fat diet (HFD) combined with streptozotocin (STZ) injection to simulate the occurrence process of T2DM. PSAE was administered daily by oral gavage during the experiment.

Meat Intake and the Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Meta-Analysis of Observational Studies.

The association between meat intake and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk is still unclear. We conducted a meta-analysis with observational studies to clarify this relationship. A total of 17 studies involving 2,915,680 participants and 4,953 cases of HCC were included in the meta-analysis.

Effect of F11R Gene Knockdown on Malignant Biological Behaviors of Pancreatic Cancer Cells.

F11R receptor (F11R/junctional adhesion molecule-A/F11R-A) is preferentially concentrated at tight junctions and influences epithelial cell morphology and migration. Numerous studies have shown that the aberrant expression of F11R contributes to tumor progression including pancreatic cancer. However, the significance of F11R in various tumors is controversial, and the role of F11R in regulating the malignant behaviors of human pancreatic cancer is unknown.
