Time matters: an insight into the relationship between chrononutrition and diabetes.

Chrononutrition is a branch of chronobiology that evaluates nutrients and the pathways implicated in their regulation in accordance with circadian rhythms. Sleep deprivation and disturbances have been strongly associated with the progression of different metabolic alterations, and the time of food intake plays a fundamental role in maintaining metabolic homeostasis. It has been demonstrated that not only the components of food are important, but quantity and quality are also crucial elements of a healthy eating pattern.

Article Synopsis
- Vulnerable plaques in cardiovascular health are gaining attention, with imaging techniques such as MCTA, USG, and MRI providing structural insights but lacking in cellular evaluation.
- PET molecular imaging stands out by revealing cellular processes like inflammation and lipid oxidation, particularly through the use of the 18F-FDG radiotracer, which helps assess plaque characteristics and predict cardiovascular risks.
- Despite some limitations with 18F-FDG, including sensitivity issues, other tracers like 18F-NaF show potential, making PET imaging a valuable tool in preventing major cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

School of Rehabilitation Therapy, Queen's University, Kingston, Canada.
Purpose: We established the most commonly used clinician and patient-reported hip fracture outcome measures as of 2022, assessed their content validity using an International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework, and operationalized these results to contribute to an updated hip fracture core set.
Materials And Methods: A literature search was conducted to identify articles utilizing outcome measures related to hip fracture. A total of five outcome measures were identified, linked to the ICF, and assessed for content validity via bandwidth percent, content density, and content diversity.

Although significant progress relating to professional equality among men and women in medicine has been made over the past few decades, evidence derived from the medical literature suggests that inequity persists with respect to income, attainment of leadership positions, and professional advancement. These inequities have been observed to be more pronounced in gastroenterology. Literature relating to gender-specific barriers to professional equity in gastroenterology is limited.

Background: Ancient history mentions the dominance of men in nursing; however, now nursing has a feminine image, and globally more than 90% of nursing workforce is females. Recently, more number of males are attracted to nursing, but there is a paucity of literature on the attitude of people about men in nursing may be because of a lack of measurement scales available for this purpose. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a new scale measuring attitude of people toward men in nursing.
