Hyperlipidemia, an elevated level of cholesterol and/or triglycerides, has become a major public health problem worldwide. Although drugs intervention is effective in treating hyperlipidemia, most of them have adverse side effects. Peptides from natural plants with high anti-hyperlipidemic activity and a strong safety profile have emerged as promising candidates to prevent and ameliorate hyperlipidemia.

Objective: The evidence for adopting the 3 robotic arm (RA) called the pulling RA rather than a uterine manipulator to manipulate the uterus in the robotic radical hysterectomy (RRH) for cervical cancer is still limited. We present a single-center retrospective experience comparing using the pulling RA to replace a uterine manipulator vs. using a uterine manipulator to manipulate the uterus in RRH.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common gynecological endocrine diseases for women of puberty and reproductive age. PCOS can affect women's health for the rest of their lives since the incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) may increase in the perimenopausal and senile periods among PCOS women compared with non-PCOS women.

Method: A literature retrieval based on the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) database.

The oligopeptide (ATO) was obtained by papain digestion and ultrafiltration membrane separation, and its anti-fatigue effects and mechanisms were evaluated using animal experiments on Kunming mice. Compared with the negative control group, the ATO extended the time to exhaustion in mice in a forced swim test by 0.81-1.

The oligopeptides derived from protein (ATO) are a class of small peptides with molecular weight <1 kDa and good bioactivity. This paper aimed to explore the hypouricemic, hepatoprotective, and nephroprotective effects of ATO and its potential mechanisms in hyperuricemia in mice induced by potassium oxonate. The results showed that ATO significantly reduced serum UA, serum creatinine levels, inhibited XOD and ADA activities in the liver ( < 0.

Background: Diet-related knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors (KABs) are important for building healthier dietary patterns. We conducted this study to (a) investigate diet conditions of Chinese adult residents from the perspective of knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors, and (b) assess the association between diet-related KABs and self-rated health.

Methods: We analyzed the 2015 China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) data.
