Enhancing wine malolactic fermentation: Variable effect of yeast mannoproteins on Oenococcus oeni strains.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), principally Oenococcus oeni, play crucial roles in wine production, contributing to the transformation of L-malic acid into L-lactic acid during malolactic fermentation (MLF). This fermentation is influenced by different factors, including the initial LAB population and wine stress factors, such as nutrient availability. Yeast mannoproteins can enhance LAB survival in wine.

Recovery of Left Ventricular Function and Long-Term Outcomes in Patients With Takotsubo Syndrome.

Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a form of transient left ventricular (LV) dysfunction that usually resolves within days to weeks.

Anti-Cholinergic Effects of the Phenolic Extract from the Plant: A Computational and Network Pharmacology Study.

Investigations into cholinesterase inhibition have received attention from researchers in recent years for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Cholinesterase enzymes, namely, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), hold pivotal significance in Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment. In this study, we utilized the ethanolic extract of followed by liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESI-MS/MS) to separate and identify at least 21 compounds in the extract.

Material And Methods: Patients from the prospective nation-wide (RETAKO) registry were included and divided into quartiles of maximum creatinine (Cr) level during hospitalization.

Prognostic Utility of Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions Shock Stage Approach for Classifying Cardiogenic Shock Severity in Takotsubo Syndrome.

Background: Cardiogenic shock (CS) is a significant complication of Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), contributing to heightened mortality and morbidity. Despite this, the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI) staging system for CS severity lacks validation in patients with TTS and CS. This study aimed to characterize a patient cohort with TTS using the SCAI staging system and assess its utility in cases of TTS complicated by CS.

Cardiotoxicity Secondary to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors in the Elderly: Safety in Real-World Data.

Introduction: Immunotherapy represents a key pillar of cancer treatments, with high response rates and long survival. Its use is increasing, mainly at the expense of the geriatric population due to the ageing of this population. However, despite its benefit, its safety in certain areas such as cardiotoxicity is largely unknown.

Microplastic in industrial aquaculture: Occurrence in the aquatic environment, feed and organisms (Dicentrarchus labrax).

The increasing use of plastics and the growing concern about their impact on the environment and living beings makes it necessary to study how microplastics (MP) affect aquaculture systems. In order to gain an in-depth understanding of these systems, this study covers the water intake, the purification treatment at the inlet, the water in the culture tanks, as well as the feed used in the feeding and the organism itself. For this purpose, five samples were taken, both in the water line, feed and sea bass during the weeks of the experiment.

Comparison of volatile compounds during biological ageing and commercial storage of Cava (Spanish sparkling wine): The role of lees.

Cava is a sparkling wine produced using a traditional method that must be aged in contact with lees for a minimum period of nine months. The contact between wine and lees improves the quality of the final product, and aroma is one of the most important qualitative parameters of a wine. The aim of the work was to study the role of lees in the ageing of Spanish sparkling wine (Cava), by sampling at industrial scale the bottles, from 9 to 30 months of ageing, jointly with the winery and in real time.

Takotsubo Syndrome, Stressful Triggers, and Risk of Recurrence.

The risk of recurrence in takotsubo syndrome (TTS) appears to be low, although previous studies have shown conflicting results and factors associated with recurrences are unclear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the incidence and predictors of TTS recurrences. Adult patients included in the Spanish Multicenter REgistry of TAKOtsubo syndrome (RETAKO) between January 2003 and September 2019 were identified.

Tier-specific contextualised high-intensity running profiles in the English Premier League: more on-ball movement at the top.

The present study aimed to determine the physical-tactical profiles of elite football teams and individual players according to final league rankings. A total of 50 English Premier League matches (n = 100 match and 583 player observations) were analysed by coding the player's physical-tactical actions through synchronising tracking data and video. Final league rankings were categorised into Tiers: (A) 1-5 ranking (n = 25), (B) 6-10 ranking (n = 26), (C) 11-15 ranking (n = 26), and (D) 16-20 ranking (n = 23).

Socially assistive robots in health and social care: Acceptance and cultural factors. Results from an exploratory international online survey.

Aim: This study explored the views of an international sample of registered nurses and midwives working in health and social care concerning socially assistive robots (SARs), and the relationship between dimensions of culture and rejection of the idea that SARs had benefits in these settings.

Methods: An online survey was used to obtain rankings of (among other topics) the extent to which SARs have benefits for health and social care. It also asked for free text responses regarding any concerns about SARs.

Intermediate molecular phenotypes to identify genetic markers of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity risk.

Cardiotoxicity due to anthracyclines (CDA) affects cancer patients, but we cannot predict who may suffer from this complication. CDA is a complex disease whose polygenic component is mainly unidentified. We propose that levels of intermediate molecular phenotypes in the myocardium associated with histopathological damage could explain CDA susceptibility; so that variants of genes encoding these intermediate molecular phenotypes could identify patients susceptible to this complication.
