Hesperetin (Hst) is a common citrus fruit flavonoid with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-neurodegenerative effects. To explore the antioxidant and anti-aging effects and mechanisms of Hst, we induced chronic oxidative stress in using low-concentration HO and examined its effects on lifespan, healthy life index, reactive oxygen species (ROS), antioxidant enzymes, and transcriptomic metrics. Hst significantly prolonged lifespan, increased body bending and pharyngeal pumping frequency, decreased ROS accumulation, and increased antioxidant enzyme activity in normal and stressed .

Methods: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Scopus databases were explored to identify relevant observational studies that reported incidences of OSA in CABG patients, and assessed OSA using standard objective methods such as polysomnography (PSG). The primary outcomes of interest were risk of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) and all-cause mortality.
