This experiment proposed to study the efficiency omega 3 fatty acid on behavioural phenotype of Parkinson's disease (PD) in mice. Totally 7 groups (each group 6 mice) were used in this assessment, each groups were treated with saline (control), MPP+, L-DOPA, Omega 3 oil, Omega 3 oil (three different concentrations) +MPP+ separately. The behavioral assessments such as bar test, open field test, maze test, hang test were noted on 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th day. After the examination period, the tested animals' midbrains and frontal cortex were dissected to analyze TBARS, GSH, Catalase, Superoxide Dismutase and Glutathione Peroxidase assay. In the bar test, 500mg omega 3 fatty acid administrated mice showed a high cataleptic scores. In open field Test, significant reductions in behavior analysis were observed from the tested mice group. Maze test and hang test doesn't show much difference. In biochemical test, tested groups showed promising results compared to control group. The result strongly proved that the omega 3 fatty acid has remarkable abilities to control the neurodegenerative diseases.

Background: The authors aimed to explore the association of fatty acids with periodontitis and its severity and to assess causality using Mendelian randomization (MR) analyses.
Methods: Data for participants with complete data were extracted from the 2009-2014 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Weighted logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between dietary fatty acids and periodontitis and its severity.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women worldwide. Highly targeted therapies have been developed for different subtypes of breast cancer, including hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer. However, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and metastatic breast cancer disease are primarily treated with chemotherapy, which improves disease-free and overall survival, but does not offer a curative solution for these aggressive forms of breast cancer.

Background: Normothermic ex situ heart perfusion (ESHP) has emerged as a valid modality for advanced cardiac allograft preservation and conditioning prior to transplantation though myocardial function declines gradually during ESHP thus limiting its potential for expanding the donor pool. Recently, the utilization of dialysis has been shown to preserve myocardial and coronary vasomotor function. Herein, we sought to determine the changes in myocardial metabolism that could support this improvement.

Purpose Of Review: Malnutrition is a significant comorbidity in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), contributing to disease progression and reduced quality of life. This narrative review examines the role of nutritional therapy in the prevention and management of malnutrition in COPD, emphasizing evidence-based approaches and their clinical implications.
Recent Findings: COPD patients face increased metabolic demands, systemic inflammation, and reduced dietary intake, resulting in muscle wasting, sarcopenia, and cachexia.

Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune pigmentation disorder shaped by a complex interplay of genetic predispositions and environmental triggers. While conventional therapies-phototherapy, corticosteroids, and immunosuppressants-can be effective, their benefits are often partial and temporary, with recurrence common once treatment stops. As such, there is increasing interest in exploring complementary approaches that may offer a more sustainable impact.
