This work reports the association between oxidative stress-related SNVs (-rs1050450, rs17650792, -rs4880, and -rs769217), BMD, and antioxidant nutrient intake.

Hypoxia Induces Alterations in the Circadian Rhythm in Patients with Chronic Respiratory Diseases.

The function of the circadian cycle is to determine the natural 24 h biological rhythm, which includes physiological, metabolic, and hormonal changes that occur daily in the body. This cycle is controlled by an internal biological clock that is present in the body's tissues and helps regulate various processes such as sleeping, eating, and others. Interestingly, animal models have provided enough evidence to assume that the alteration in the circadian system leads to the appearance of numerous diseases.

Dietary Patterns Are Associated with the Gut Microbiome and Metabolic Syndrome in Mexican Postmenopausal Women.
