Objective: Previous studies have suggested that patients with aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) have a high likelihood of alcohol intolerance. The purpose of this systematic review is to identify if there is sufficient evidence to confirm this correlation and the impact of medical therapy on subsequent alcohol tolerance.
Data Sources: PubMed, EMBASE, SCOPUS, EBSCO, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, and Grey literature. We also performed snowballing on the identified observational studies (OS) for additional data.
Review Methods: A systematic review was conducted from 1968 to 2022 to identify those studies describing AERD symptomatology triggered by alcohol intake. The primary outcome was to analyze the current literature for the association between alcohol intolerance and AERD symptoms. The secondary outcome looked for improvement in alcohol tolerance after aspirin desensitization or biological therapy.
Results: A total of 775 studies were identified and 40 abstracts were evaluated. From these, 5 studies met the inclusion criteria. Of the 5 manuscripts, there was 1 case-control, 2 cohort, and 2 cross-sectional studies. A total of 522 participants with AERD and a history of alcohol consumption were included, with 52.8% reporting at least 1 sinopulmonary exacerbation after alcohol intake. One of 3 studies noted improvement in alcohol tolerance after medical therapy with aspirin desensitization.
Conclusion: The current literature suggests that patients with AERD have a high risk of alcohol intolerance. Additionally, aspirin desensitization may improve alcohol tolerance in this patient population.

Background: Sengers syndrome is an autosomal recessive mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome characterized by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, congenital cataracts, skeletal myopathy, exercise intolerance, and lactic acidosis. Dysfunction of acylglycerol kinase (AGK) is responsible for the disease, and several AGK gene variants have been reported.
Methods: We employed a comprehensive genomic analysis approach, including whole-genome sequencing and RNA sequencing, combined with various bioinformatics tools.

Sake brewed using the kimoto-style exhibits high antioxidant capacity and is expected to inhibit the deterioration of sake quality due to oxidation. However, the antioxidant capacity of the added lactic acid bacteria has not been explored. We aimed to screen the lactic acid bacterium, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, with excellent brewing and antioxidant capacity, to develop sake with high antioxidant capacity.

Background: Myelofibrosis (MF) is a clonal haematopoietic disease, with median overall survival for patients with primary MF only 6.5 years. The most frequent gene mutation found in patients is JAK2, causing constitutive activation of the kinase and activation of downstream signalling.

Edible legume sprouts have been proposed as a promising plant-based source of the enzyme diamine oxidase (DAO), which plays a key role in degrading histamine at an intestinal level and preventing the development of histamine intolerance symptoms. However, the temperature and humidity conditions required for seed germination can also favor the rapid growth of yeast and mold, potentially compromising sprout yield and quality. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different seed disinfection treatments on both the germination rate and DAO enzymatic activity in sprouts of four species.
