This study examined the unique effects of four variable groups on changes in older adults' depressive symptoms for a 2-year period: (1) baseline health and disability status, (2) changes in health and disability since baseline, (3) stability and changes in marital and caregiving status and in work and volunteering, and (4) stability and changes in health-related behaviors. With data from the 1998 and 2000 interview waves of the Health and Retirement Study, the authors used gender-separate multistep (hierarchical) residualized regression analyses in which the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression scale (CES-D) score at follow-up is modeled as a function of the effect of each group of independent variables. As hypothesized, changes in health, disability, marital, and caregiving status explained a larger amount of variance than the existing and stable conditions, although each group of variables explained a relatively small amount (0.3-3.4%) of variance in the follow-up CES-D score.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of freezing duration and matcha concentration on the rheological properties, moisture distribution, and multiscale structure of dough. The results indicated that both freezing and high concentrations of matcha (≥1 %) significantly reduced the stiffness of the dough matrix, restricted its ability to expand during fermentation, and disrupted the structure of gluten protein. Furthermore, freezing induced moisture redistribution within the dough.

Microplastics (MPs) are known as substantial environmental and health threats because of their pervasive existence and potential function in human diseases. This study is the first research in which a comprehensive analysis of various impacts of MPs on cancer cells is performed through pharmacological and in silico approaches. Moreover, our results demonstrate that MPs have both promotive and suppressive impacts on cancer cells, changing some of the important features of these kinds of cells including cellular viability, migration, metastasis, and apoptosis.

All women go through menopause at some point in their lives, but because of the nature of their jobs, teachers have it harder than other female employees. This study aimed to assess middle-aged teachers' knowledge, attitudes, and quality of life-related to menopause after receiving education on health-promoting lifestyle modification. A quasi-experimental Time Series design with pre-intervention, immediate, post-intervention, and a three-month follow-up was employed in this study.
