Article Synopsis
- The study explores the impact of replacing animal protein with black soybeans on metabolic health in individuals with prediabetes and obesity, focusing on advanced glycation end products (dAGEs).
- A 16-week randomized trial involved participants consuming either pork or black soymilk, which led to a significant reduction in dAGE intake and improvements in oxidative stress and gut microbiota health.
- Results indicated that black soymilk consumption lowered blood AGE levels and oxidative stress markers compared to pork, suggesting potential dietary changes to improve metabolic disorders.
Understanding the biological underpinning of relapse could improve the outcomes of patients with psychosis. Relapse is elicited by multiple reasons/triggers, but the consequence frequently accompanies deteriorations of brain function, leading to poor prognosis. Structural brain imaging studies have recently been pioneered to address this question, but a lack of molecular investigations is a knowledge gap.

Background: Several studies have reported the relevance between serum vitamin D and allergic immunoglobulin E (IgE) responses and atopic diseases. However, a metabolomics-based approach to the impacts of vitamin D on allergic reactions remains unclear.
Methods: A total of 111 children completed a 3-year follow-up were enrolled and classified based on longitudinal vitamin D status (≥ 30 ng/ml, n = 54; 20-29.
