Background And Aims: Diabetes Mellitus (D.M.) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia due to insufficient or inefficient insulin secretory response that has become a widespread epidemic primarily due to the increasing prevalence and incidence of type 2 diabetes. Phytochemicals such as flavonoids and regular physical activity have recently attracted attention to developing new anti-diabetic drugs or alternative therapy to control diabetes. The aim of this study was to compare effects of dietary Flavonol consumption in white tea, with or without aerobic training, among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus as a randomized trial.
Methods: 49 women with T2D were randomly assigned into groups including control, white tea, aerobic training, and aerobic training + white tea. The interventions were carried out for six months. Weight, Body Mass Index (BMI), body Fat, peak oxygen consumption (VO2), and Blood Pressure were evaluated at both the first and last days of the research period. Blood samples were withdrawn on the same days via venipuncture to test blood glucose, insulin, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), cholesterol, and triglycerides (T.G.).
Results: Characteristics analysis showed significant improvements in treated groups. In addition, glucose, insulin, LDL, Cholesterol, and T.G. were significantly reduced while HDL was remarkably increased in treated groups compared to pre-experiment values or the diabetic control group.
Conclusion: Collectively, white tea combined with aerobic training favorably affects glycemic parameters, lipid profile, blood pressure, and VO2 in six months in women with T2D. Registered under Clinical Trials.gov Identifier no. NCT00123456.

White root rot disease caused by Rosellinia necatrix is a growing issue in orchards, and biochar pyrolyzed from the pruned branch residues of fruit trees has potential as a soil amendment agent with a number of benefits, such as long-term carbon sequestration. However, the effects of pruned branch biochar on white root rot disease remain unclear. Therefore, we compared direct antagonism against R.

Flavan-3-ol oligomers (FLOs), including proanthocyanidins (PAs) and theasinensins (TSs), contribute greatly to the flavor and bioactivity of the tea beverage. Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry has been widely used in profiling a wide range of compounds in tea. However, the detection and identification of FLOs with low concentration and high structural diversity remain meaningful yet challenging work.

Objective: In this clinical study, chlorhexidine gluconate (CHX) was chosen as the positive control group, and the clinical and biochemical efficacy of mouthwashes with green tea, white tea and essential oil (EO) as the active ingredients were aimed to be examined comprehensively.
Methods: A total of 112 participants with gingivitis were randomly assigned to four different groups and different mouthwashes were used for 4 weeks: CHX-MW group (as a positive control group), EO-MW group, GT-MW group and WT-MW group. The effects of the mouthwashes on plaque, inflammation and dental staining were evaluated by indexed scores at the beginning and 4th week.

Achieving deep-blue light with high color saturation remains a critical challenge in the development of white light-emitting diode (LED) technology, necessitating luminescent materials that excel in efficiency, low toxicity, and stability. Here, we report the synthesis of [N(CH)]CuI (TEACuI) single crystals (SCs), which exhibit deep-blue photoluminescence (PL) at 450 nm. These crystals are characterized by a significant Stokes shift of 180 nm, a long lifetime of 1.

The low degree of intelligence and standardization of tea bud picking, as well as laborious and time-consuming manual harvesting, bring significant challenges to the sustainable development of the high-quality tea industry. There is an urgent need to investigate the critical technologies of intelligent picking robots for tea. The complexity of the model requires high hardware computing resources, which limits the deployment of the tea bud detection model in tea-picking robots.
