Nutritional potentialities of some tree leaves based on polyphenols and rumen gas production.

Aim: The study was conducted to evaluate eight tree leaves based on polyphenolic content and rumen incubation and gas production technique (RIVIGPT) for their nutritive potentiality.

Materials And Methods: Eight selected tree leaves, namely , , spp., , , , , and , were selected for proximate composition, forage fiber fractions, total phenolics (TPs), non-tannin phenols (NTPs), total tannins (TTs), condensed tannins (CTs), and hydrolysable tannins (HTs); RIVIGP with and without polyethylene glycol (PEG); and dry matter digestibility (IVDMD) (modified two stage) analysis was conducted.

Smokeless Tobacco-associated Lesions: A Mobile Health Approach.

Aim: Globally, India accounts for the highest number of oral cancer cases. The survival rates are about 30% lower than those in developing countries. The main reason for these dismal figures is the late presentation of patients.

Studies on 3-methylhistidine metabolism in children with protein-energy malnutrition.

Twenty-four hour urinary excretion of 3-methylhistidine (3-MeHis) was determined in children suffering from severe and moderate degrees of protein-energy malnutrition before and after treatment. Excretion of 3-MeHis was decreased both in children with severe protein-energy malnutrition and during undernutrition and increased considerably after treatment. The results suggest that there is a quantitative as well as a qualitative change in 3-MeHis metabolism in protein-energy malnutrition.
