Aim: The aim of this study was to test mf Odondovis Calcium® as a food supplement in a 3-month product evaluation study measuring how the low jaw bone density, could be improved. The upper jaw density was tested with an ultrasound method, evaluating the grey scale median of the images (GSM).
Methods: Seventy nine subjects were enrolled; 22 normal subjects (group A) and 57 with upper jaw osteoporosis (according to DEXA values). Patients were divided into 2 groups (group B and C, respectively 28 and 29 cases). These subjects were treated with what was considered the' best treatment' and in the group B only was added mf Odontovis Calcium®, consisting of calcium salts, Vitamin D and physiological modulators with antioxidant activity. This treatment continued for 3 months.
Results: The GSM of osteoporotic patients was significantly lower in comparison with GSM in normal subjects. No changes were observed (between the inclusion and 3 month values) in normal subjects and minimal, non-significant changes were observed in control osteoporosis patients. Before-after treatment values of GSM in treatment patients showed a significant increase (P<0.022) at 3 months. The increase in GSM in these patients was significantly higher (P<0.05) in comparison with control patient with osteoporosis. The Tolerability of the product was very good and the compliance corresponded to 98%.
Conclusion: the jaw density in patients with osteoporosis is increased in only 3 months with supplementation with mf Odontovis Calcium®. Long-term clinical implications should be observed in more prolonged studies.

Background: Intertemporal choices are the process by which people make choices about losses or gains at different points in time (near or far). To explore the relationship between font color and intertemporal choice and to examine the serial mediation of time perception and intradimensional difference comparison on the association between font color and intertemporal choice on the basis of attribute-based choice models.
Methods: We randomly assigned subjects to the intertemporal choices questionnaire in a specific font color (blue vs.

Background: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) can study the susceptibility values of brain tissue which allows for noninvasive examination of local brain iron levels in both normal and pathological conditions.
Purpose: Our study compares brain iron deposition in gray matter (GM) nuclei between cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) patients and healthy controls (HCs), exploring factors that affect iron deposition and cognitive function.
Materials And Methods: A total of 321 subjects were enrolled in this study.
The prediction model of academic achievement based on cardiorespiratory fitness and BMI status for ninth-grade students.

The purpose of this study was to predict an academic achievement model based on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and body mass index (BMI) in ninth-graders. The study sample included 6 530 adolescents from 341 public schools in Slovakia. Criterion-referenced competency tests measuring academic performance in mathematics and mother language (Slovak), CRF, and BMI were assessed in the academic year 2022-2023.

Background: The carbon sequestration potential and water retention capacity of peatlands are closely linked to the growth dynamics of Sphagnum mosses. However, few studies have focused on the response of Sphagnum moss growth dynamics to UV-B radiation, and existing research has emphasized species differences. In this study, Sphagnum palustre L.

Primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) is a motor neuron disease (MND) which mainly affects upper motor neurons. Within the MND spectrum, PLS is much more slowly progressive than amyotrophic laterals sclerosis (ALS). `Classical` ALS is characterized by catabolism and abnormal energy metabolism preceding onset of motor symptoms, and previous studies indicated that the disease progression of ALS involves hypothalamic atrophy.
