Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the connection between diet-induced inflammation, measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII), and a heart failure biomarker (NT-proBNP) in a large population from NHANES (1999-2004).
- Results showed that an increase in DII correlates with higher NT-proBNP levels, especially significant in individuals without heart failure and those aged 50-75.
- The findings suggest that dietary choices may play a critical role in heart health, particularly in specific demographic groups such as older adults and those with pre-existing conditions like hypertension and diabetes.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the awareness of the epidemic among college students and their mental health as well as to explore the association between their awareness of the epidemic mental health and the daily mobile phone screen use time, in order to provide guidance for the publicity of school epidemic prevention and control knowledge and the psychological counseling of students.
Methods: A cross-sectional design was employed among 780 college students, The Pandemic Fatigue Questionnaire, epidemic prevention and control knowledge and the mental health Scale were used to collect data through an online survey.
Results: 1.
Background And Aim: The Healthy Eating Index (HEI) is a dietary index developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to determine whether a diet adheres to US dietary guidelines. Soluble Klotho (S-Klotho) is a protein with essential anti-aging properties. However, whether HEI is linked to S-Klotho plasma levels is still debatable.
