With the full implementation of the cosmetic formula ingredient registration system and the standardized management of labels and identification, the ingredients registered and declared on the label must be consistent with the actual ingredients contained in the product. Further, cosmetic manufacturers require accurate determination of the ingredients in cosmetics for formula analysis. Therefore, a method for the simultaneous determination of six polyhydroxyl compounds, Pro-Xylane, xylitol, sorbitol, mannitol, sucrose, and inositol, in cosmetics and toothpaste was established.

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of collaborative pain management by healthcare providers on sleep quality and self-efficacy in perioperative lumbar disc herniation patients. A total of 300 lumbar disc herniation patients admitted to our hospital from February 2022 to February 2023 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into a study group (receiving collaborative pain management by healthcare providers) and a control group (receiving conventional pain management), with 150 patients in each group.

Elevated body iron stores are associated with hypertension progression, while hypertension is associated with elevated plasma catecholamine levels in patients. However, there is a gap in our understanding of the connection between catecholamines and iron regulation. Hepcidin is a key iron-regulatory hormone, which maintains body iron balance.

In female, inadequate iron supply is a highly prevalent problem that often leads to iron-deficiency anemia. This study aimed to understand the effects of pregnancy and lactation on iron metabolism. Rats with different days of gestation and lactation were used to determine the variations in iron stores and serum iron level and the changes in expression of iron metabolism-related proteins, including ferritin, ferroportin 1 (FPN1), ceruloplasmin (Cp), divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1), transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1), and the major iron-regulatory molecule-hepcidin.

Background And Aim: The body's requirement for iron is different at different developmental stages. However, the molecular mechanisms of age-dependent iron metabolism are poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated the expression of iron transport proteins in the duodenum of Sprague-Dawley rats at five different age stages.

Studies have shown that men and women exhibit significant differences regarding iron status. However, the effects of sex on iron accumulation and distribution are not well established. In this study, female and male Sprague-Dawley rats were killed at 4 months of age.

Recycled iron from reticuloendothelial macrophages to erythroid precursors is important to maintain the iron homeostasis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying iron homeostasis in macrophages are poorly understood. In this study, male Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo, 500 IU/day, s.
