The hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis is affected by acute exercise, but the mechanisms underlying thyroid function changes after exercise remain to be defined. The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of a session of acute exercise on the treadmill at 75% of maximum oxygen consumption on thyroid function of rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into five groups: control (without exercise), and killed immediately after (0 min) or 30, 60, and 120 min after the end of the exercise session. A significant increase in serum tri-iodothyronine (T(3)) occurred immediately after the exercise, with a gradual decrease thereafter, so that 120 min after the end of the exercise, serum T(3) was significantly lower than that in controls. Total thyroxine (T(4)) increased progressively reaching values significantly higher than that in the control group at 120 min. T(3)/T(4) ratio was significantly decreased 60 and 120 min after the exercise, indicating impaired T(4)-to-T(3) conversion. Liver type 1 deiodinase activity (D1) significantly decreased at 60 and 120 min, while pituitary D1 increased progressively from 30 to 120 min after the exercise, and thyroid D1 was increased only immediately after the end of the exercise. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) type 2 deiodinase activity (D2) was significantly lower at 30 min, but pituitary D2 remained unchanged. No change in serum thyrotropin was detected, while serum corticosterone was significantly higher 30 min after the exercise. Our results demonstrate that decreased liver D1 and BAT D2 might be involved in the decreased T(4)-to-T(3) conversion detected after an exercise session on the treadmill.

In this research, activated carbon from banana peel (BPAC) was prepared by calcination (600 °C) method. Nano composites MO@BPAC (MO=NiO, CuO and ZnO) were prepared and then were characterized by XRD, FTIR, FESM, EDX, BETand TGA methods. Formation of MO@BPAC nanocomposites was confirmed by analysis methods.

Introduction: The relationship between physical activity (PA) and nutritional status on the prognosis of cancer survivors remains underexplored. We aimed to investigate the combined effects of PA and Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) on prognostic assessment of survival outcomes in US cancer survivors.
Methods: 2,619 subjects were screened from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database from 1999 to 2018.

Introduction: Cortisol is an essential stress hormone and failure of its production, known as adrenal insufficiency (AI), is associated with significant mortality due to adrenal crisis. The Short Synacthen Test (SST) is the current diagnostic test of choice for AI, but it is both invasive and resource intensive. Globally, there is an unmet need for a non-invasive, cost-effective test.

A set of nCN/WO composites was synthesized through a simple thermal treatment for gold recovery from the simulated effluent of a non-cyanide-based plating bath. The obtained results exhibited that all nCN/WO composites demonstrated a higher photocatalytic activity for gold recovery than their pristine components due to the formation of nanocomposites which paved a convenient pathway for charge transfer. Among all synthesized composites, the 5.
