Article Synopsis
- This study looked at whether living in areas with healthier food options helps people eat better.
- It analyzed data from over 7,000 people aged 40-75 in Maastricht, Netherlands, using surveys to check their diet and the type of food stores nearby.
- The results showed that having healthier food shops nearby didn't really change what people ate, meaning there was no clear link between the food environment and diet quality.

Article Synopsis
- This study explored the link between autonomic function, indicated by lower heart rate variability (HRV), and beta cell function, assessed during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), using data from 2,007 participants in The Maastricht Study.
- Researchers found that lower HRV was significantly correlated with worse overall beta cell response, regardless of sex or glucose metabolism status.
- The findings suggest that autonomic dysfunction could play a role in beta cell dysfunction, potentially leading to issues with glucose metabolism, such as prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for many malignant hematological and non-hematological diseases. Survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) are at risk of long-term health problems and reduced quality of life related to previous treatments. Many studies about these long-term effects have been conducted over the last decades.
