Biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of nitrous oxide intoxication: objectives and methodology of the SFBC Working Group.

The recreational use of nitrous oxide (N2O) is an emerging public health issue. Chronic N2O abuse may result in various clinical symptoms, encompassing neurological, psychiatric and cardiovascular outcomes. Despite the difficulties for the laboratory investigation of N2O intoxication, there is currently no guidelines in France to help both clinicians and biologists use appropriate biomarkers for the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with clinical symptoms potentially related to N2O intoxication.

Efficacy of oral manganese and D-galactose therapy in a patient bearing a novel TMEM165 variant.

TMEM165-CDG has first been reported in 2012 and manganese supplementation was shown highly efficient in rescuing glycosylation in isogenic KO cells. The unreported homozygous missense c.928G>C; p.

Are sprint accelerations related to groin injuries? A biomechanical analysis of adolescent soccer players.

Groin injuries have one of the highest incidences in soccer and can be career threatening, especially for adolescents, due to their high recurrence rate. Quick accelerations have been connected to groin injuries along with kicking and change of directions. Purpose of this study was to examine the hip joint kinematics, kinetics and the muscle forces of adductor longus and gracilis during first ground contact of a linear sprint acceleration performed by adolescent soccer players.

[Review of nutritional components in Covid-19: what about micronutrients?].

Nutritional status is an important protection factor against viral infections. Both undernutrition and malnutrition cause deficits in micronutrients, trace elements and vitamins necessary for various physiological functions and the appropriate functioning of the immune system. These deficiencies and infectious diseases often coexist, with complex interactions.
