Anxiety, depression, and their association with unintentional injury risk among older adult populations in Guangxi, China: a cross-sectional study.

Background: The aging population presents a significant public health challenge, particularly concerning mental health and injury prevention. Anxiety and depression are common among the older adult, affecting their quality of life and increasing the risk of unintentional injuries (UI). This study aims to explore the association between anxiety and depression and UI risk among the older adult in Guangxi, China, using data from the 2023 National Health Service Survey.

Glycan-Matchmade Multivalent Decoration of Enzyme Labels for Amplified Electrochemical Detection of Glycoproteins.

Glycoproteins are of significant value to liquid biopsy of human diseases. Herein, we present a universal electrochemical platform for the amplified detection of glycoproteins, taking advantage of the glycan-matchmade multivalent decoration of enzyme labels for the enzymatic signal amplification. Briefly, the glycan-matchmade multivalent decoration involves two steps, i.

Ginsenoside Rg1 improves hypoxia-induced pulmonary vascular endothelial dysfunction through TXNIP/NLRP3 pathway-modulated mitophagy.

Background: Vascular endothelial dysfunction (VED) is one of the main pathogenic events in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Previous studies have demonstrated that the ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) can ameliorate PAH, but the mechanism by which Rg1 affects pulmonary VED in hypoxia-induced PAH remains unclear.

Methods: Network pharmacology, molecular docking and other experiments were used to explore the mechanisms by which Rg1 affects PAH.

Valine metabolite, 3-hydroxyisobutyrate, promotes lipid metabolism and cell proliferation in porcine mammary gland epithelial cells.

Improving mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation through nutrition is an important approach for enhancing sow milk production and piglet growth. An intermediate metabolite of valine, 3-hydroxyisobutyrate (3-HIB), regulates cellular lipid metabolism. In the present study, we investigated the effects of 3-HIB on porcine mammary gland epithelial cells proliferation and lipid metabolism.

Effect of microwave treatment on the structural and physicochemical properties of amylose partially removed sorghum starch.

This study aimed to probe the influence of amylose in starch granules on starch modification. Part of the amylose from sorghum starch was removed through warm water leaching, and the samples were then microwaved. The effects of treatments on starch structure, physicochemical properties, and digestibility were researched.
