Recurrent sports injuries present complex challenges that extend beyond the playing field, impacting athletes' physical well-being, mental resilience, and financial stability. This review outlines a comprehensive framework designed to prevent and manage these setbacks, empowering athletes to achieve sustained performance and recovery. This multidimensional issue requires an integrative approach encompassing physical rehabilitation, psychological resilience, and nutritional strategies.

Background/objectives: Frailty is a complex geriatric syndrome resulting in decreased physiological reserve. While genetics plays a role, the underlying mechanisms remain unsolved. Metallothioneins (MTs), metal-binding proteins with high affinity for zinc, an essential mineral for many physiological functions, are involved in processes including oxidative stress and inflammation.

Male infertility is a common complication of diabetes. Diabetes leads to the decrease of zinc (Zn) content, which is a necessary trace element to maintain the normal structure and function of reproductive organs and spermatogenesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of metformin combined with zinc on testis and sperm in diabetic mice.

A Scanning Photoelectron Microscopy (SPEM) experiment has been applied to ZnO:N films deposited by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) under O-rich conditions and post-growth annealed in oxygen at 800 °C. spatial resolution (130 nm) allows for probing the electronic structure of single column of growth. The samples were cleaved under ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions to open atomically clean cross-sectional areas for SPEM experiment.

Background: This work focused on the study of the indirect fortification of Mexican tortillas made from nixtamalized masa (NM) with nixtamalized commercial corn flour (NCC-F) fortified with Zn, Fe, vitamins and folic acid.
Methods: The chemical proximate values (CPV), ash content, mineral composition by inductively coupled plasma, in vitro protein digestibility (PD), protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score (PDCAAS), the total starch content, the resistant starch (RS) content in nixtamalized corn tortillas (NC-T) and nixtamalized commercial corn flour tortillas (NCCF-T) and the contribution of tortillas prepared with a mixture of NM and NCC-F (75:25 and 50:50, NM:NCC-F) to the recommended dietary intake (RDI) of minerals and vitamins were determined.
Results: No significant differences ( < 0.
