Novel flavonolignans from the roots of Indigofera stachyodes.

Two pairs of new enantiomeric flavonolignans, ±stachyols A and B (±1 and ± 2), along with two novel isoflavanelignans, stachyols C and D (3 and 4) were isolated from the roots of Indigofera stachyodes. Their chemical structures and absolute configurations were determined using nuclear magnetic resonance and comparison of experimental and theoretical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, as well as quantum chemical calculations. Of those compounds, 1 and 2 represented the first examples of flavonolignans with 5-deoxyflavonoids adduct phenylpropanoids.

Adolescents completed a 12-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) and oral health assessment.

Cultural Adaptation, Validation, and Primary Application of a Questionnaire to Assess Intentions to Eat Low-Glycemic Index Foods among Rural Chinese Women.

Different lines of evidence indicate that knowledge of low-glycemic index (GI) foods and the practice of eating them play important roles in blood glucose management and preventing T2DM in women with prior gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). According to the theory of planned behavior (TPB), intention is a critical factor in complying with health-related behaviors. However, an instrument for assessing the intention to eat low-GI foods is lacking in China.
