Assessment of maternal knowledge of infant movement and nutrition guidelines in Canada: The survey study (hysical activity, est, xercise and nutrition alues for ducation of ew moms with ype 2 diabetes/gestational diabetes).

Infants born to mothers with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and gestational diabetes (GDM) are at an increased risk of being overweight/obese. Modifiable lifestyle factors play a role in prevention of overweight and obesity. In 2017, the Canadian 24 h Movement Guidelines for the Early Years (CMG) were released.

Comparison of seven popular structured dietary programmes and risk of mortality and major cardiovascular events in patients at increased cardiovascular risk: systematic review and network meta-analysis.

Objective: To determine the relative efficacy of structured named diet and health behaviour programmes (dietary programmes) for prevention of mortality and major cardiovascular events in patients at increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Design: Systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials.

Data Sources: AMED (Allied and Complementary Medicine Database), CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials), Embase, Medline, CINAHL (Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature), and ClinicalTrials.

Ivermectin compared with placebo in the clinical course in Mexican patients with asymptomatic and mild COVID-19: a randomized clinical trial.

Background: Despite the development and application of vaccines against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) around the world, the scientific community is still trying to find some therapies to avoid or ameliorate the fatal evolution of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Since the publication of the potential use of ivermectin as a treatment against the disease, a pleiad of information about it has been published. However, the evidence is not strong or weak enough to conclude its usefulness in the clinical evolution of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Criteria for the Classification of the Interradicular Septum Shape in Maxillary Molars with Clinical Importance for Prosthetic-Driven Immediate Implant Placement.

The aim of this study was to use cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) to evaluate the morphometric properties of the interradicular septum (IRS) in the maxillary molar region that may be indicative for prosthetic-driven implant placement. Following the repetitive algorithm based on the visual identification of IRS shapes, we described the following IRS shapes: arrow, boat, drop, and palatal and buccal convergence. The incidence of IRS shapes showed significant differences for the first and second maxillary molars (the highest frequency for the arrow shape, and the lowest for the drop shape) with no significant difference between the molars.

Variable neuroprotective role of Filipendula ulmaria extract in rat hippocampus.

We evaluated the influence of an antioxidant-rich extract of Filipendula ulmaria L. on anxiety levels induced by nano-sized particles of different calcium phosphates. Rats in experimental groups were administered with either nano-sized hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, or amorphous calcium phosphate in the presence of Filipendula ulmaria extract.

The Antioxidant Supplementation with Extract Attenuates the Systemic Adverse Effects of Nanosized Calcium Phosphates in Rats.

The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the systemic toxicity of three nanosized calcium phosphates (CaPs): hydroxyapatite (HA), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) in rats. Since those metallic compounds are widely used as bone replacement materials, including their use in oral surgery, CaPs were applied () equimollary (17.8 mg/kg, 11 mg/kg, and 9.

Antimicrobial Activity of Selected Essential Oils against Selected Pathogenic Bacteria: In Vitro Study.

The worldwide problem of infectious diseases has appeared in recent years, and antimicrobial agents are crucial in reducing disease emergence. Nevertheless, the development and distribution of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains in pathogenic bacteria, such as , , and , has become a major society health hazard. Essential oils could serve as a promising tool as a natural drug in fighting the problem with these bacteria.

The Beneficial Role of Extract in Prevention of Prodepressant Effect and Cognitive Impairment Induced by Nanoparticles of Calcium Phosphates in Rats.

Mineral components of dental composites are used in many medical and dental applications, including preventive, restorative, and regenerative dentistry. To evaluate the behavioural alterations induced by nanosized particles of novel dental composites, by means of depressive level and cognitive functions, experimental groups of rats were chronically administered with nanosized hydroxyapatite (HA), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) with or without simultaneous application of L. (FU) methanolic extract.

Analysis of the economic situation of the South East European pharmaceutical industry.

The pharmaceutical industry in the countries of Southeast Europe is still underdeveloped. Despite experience and tradition as well as significant research efforts and innovation potential, there are still big differences among the companies in the pharmaceutical sector of the SEE countries. It is for this reason that the subject of the study is the analysis of the comparative advantage in exports of the pharmaceutical sector of the SEE countries.

Optimization of a DPI Inhaler: A Computational Approach.

Alternate geometries of a commercial dry powder inhaler (DPI, i.e., Turbuhaler; AstraZeneca, London, UK) are proposed based on the simulation results obtained from a fluid and particle dynamic computational model, previously developed by Milenkovic et al.

Objectively measured physical activity levels of young children with congenital heart disease.

Unlabelled: Physical activity tends to be lower in school-age children with congenital heart disease than in healthy controls. To the best of our knowledge, objectively measured physical activity levels of preschool-age children with congenital heart disease have not been studied.

Methods: A total of 10 children with either coarctation of the aorta (n=6; age 3.
