The objective of the researchers of this study is to evaluate the effect of the Carbohydrate Quality Index (CQI) in the diet of university students living in dormitories on the severity of premenstrual symptoms. The researchers applied a survey to the students, including questions about their sociodemographic characteristics and eating habits, Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and Premenstrual Symptom Scale (PMSS). A total of 606 female students were included as participants in the study. CQI value of students with PMS was found to be lower ( < 0.05). It was observed that increasing the CQI could reduce the PMSS score [ (-0.228 (0.18-0.007) 95%CI] ( < 0.05).

This study introduces an innovative bio-based sorbent bead crafted by integrating chitosan (CS) biopolymers, Fe(NO3)3 and polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) via glutaraldehyde crosslinking. The primary focus of this study was the concurrent separation of diverse tetracycline antibiotics (TCs), followed by rigorous reversed-phase liquid chromatography analysis. The fabricated CS/Fe@PDA sorbent beads were comprehensively characterized using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, revealing a surface rich in active carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) moieties.

Background: Findings have demonstrated that mitochondrial dysfunction is vital to Alzheimer's Disease (AD) pathogenesis and progression. This study explored an innovative treatment strategy involving transfer of polymer-functionalized, healthy mitochondria to AD neurons. We hypothesized that this organelle transplantation approach would restore mitochondrial function and bioenergetics, preventing aberrant neuronal dynamics associated with AD.

Background: Individuals with early stages of cognitive decline face a significant stagnation in their financial capacity, leading to a decrease in quality of life. However, whether changes in brain function are associated with financial capacity remains unclear. Here, we evaluate the association between financial capacity and brain glucose metabolism.
