Background: Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is one of the most important intradialytic complications and is thought to be associated with intradialytic food intake. Allowing intradialytic feeding is still unclear. This study aimed to determine the relationship between IDH and intradialytic food intake.
Methods: A nonrandomized experimental study was conducted to determine the effect of intradialytic food intake on blood pressure (BP) in hemodialysis patients. Each patient was assessed twice using an ambulatory BP monitor with and without intradialytic food intake.
Results: The study was completed with 54 patients. Intradialytic hypotension developed in 40 patients (74.1%) during the food intake session, while intradialytic hypotension developed in 22 participants (40%) in the no-food session. Repeated BP readings showed that eating 2 h or more after the start of hemodialysis significantly reduced BP.
Conclusions: Intradialytic food intake affects the development of IDH. Patients who ate during hemodialysis had a trend of higher of IDH than those who ate nothing during hemodialysis. Eating during dialysis is not recommended.

Unlike most rivers globally, nearly all lowland Amazonian rivers have unregulated flow, supporting seasonally flooded floodplain forests. Floodplain forests harbor a unique tree species assemblage adapted to flooding and specialized fauna, including fruit-eating fish that migrate seasonally into floodplains, favoring expansive floodplain areas. Frugivorous fish are forest-dependent fauna critical to forest regeneration via seed dispersal and support commercial and artisanal fisheries.

The physical abrasion of plastics from simple everyday entered the food chain, with associated risks recently emphasized. Although many studies have reported the adverse effects of microplastics (MPs) on human, the reproductive implications of continuous exposure to physically abraded polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-MPs remain unexplored. Ingestion of physically abraded PET-MPs (size range: 50-100 µm) in mice from 5 to 34 weeks of age at an annual intake relevant dose of MPs (5 mg week) significantly impaired male reproductive function.

Objective: Identify the most important sociodemographic and behavioral factors related to the diet of low-income adults with hypertension in order to guide the development of a community health worker (CHW) healthy eating intervention for low-income populations with hypertension.
Design: In this cross-sectional analysis, dietary recalls were used to assess Healthy Eating Index-2020 (HEI-2020) total (range: 0 to 100 [best diet quality]) and component scores and sodium intake. Self-reported sociodemographic and behavioral data were entered into a Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression model to determine the relative importance of factors related to diet quality.

Introduction And Aims: Existing therapies for Anorexia Nervosa (AN) have limited effectiveness, necessitating the development of novel therapies and interventions. Hypothesizing and targeting clear mechanisms of change within treatment offer potential opportunities to improve them. The SPEAKS program aimed to develop, trial, and evaluate a therapy which targets key emotional and social factors known to be relevant in the development and maintenance of AN.

Ghrelin, a peptide hormone primarily produced in the enteroendocrine cells of the gastrointestinal tract, plays a vital role in regulating food intake, and energy balance in avian species. This review examines the complex interactions between ghrelin and the central signaling pathways associated with hunger regulation in birds. In contrast to mammals, where ghrelin typically promotes feeding behavior, its effects in birds appear more nuanced, exhibiting anorexigenic properties under certain conditions.
