Metabolic syndrome during menopause can lead to diabetes, cardiovascular problems, and increased mortality rates. Hormone replacement therapy is recommended to manage climacteric complications, but it has serious adverse effects. This study, therefore, investigated the potential of supplementing some minerals, vitamins, and natural products like boric acid, magnesium, vitamin D3, and extra virgin olive oil on metabolic status of menopausal ovariectomized rats.

Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is prevalent in patients hospitalized with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and is correlated with worse cardiovascular outcomes. Hypomagnesemia has been found to be associated with an elevated risk of AKI in various patient populations. Nonetheless, the relationship between hypomagnesemia and AKI incidence in patients with STEMI has not been fully elucidated.

Objective: To compare the mineral levels in umbilical vein and artery serum and to analyze the relationship between newborn birth weight and the mineral levels in umbilical vein and artery serum by measuring the mineral levels in umbilical vein and artery serum.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted to recruit 101 pairs of maternal and newborn who were hospitalized in Danyang People's Hospital, Jiangsu Province from June to September 2021 as the participants. After delivery, umbilical vein and artery blood were collected, and the levels of manganese(Mn), iron(Fe), cobalt(Co), copper(Cu), zinc(Zn), selenium(Se), magnesium(Mg) and calcium(Ca) in umbilical vein and artery serum were detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrum(ICP-MS).

Introduction: Myocardial protection with cardioplegia is a crucial approach to mitigate myocardial damage during coronary bypass grafting surgery (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The major component of the del Nido cardioplegia solution, Plasma-Lyte A, is difficult to obtain in Iran due to high cost. The objective of the current study was to study if the lactated Ringer's solution as the base for del Nido solution (LR DN) usage is a viable option as a substitute for Plasma-Lyte A in adult patients presenting for CABG surgery.

Bioresorbable scaffolds (BRS) were developed as an innovative solution to overcome the limitations of metallic stents. While polymeric BRS initially demonstrated comparable clinical outcomes to drug-eluting stent (DES) in clinical trials, subsequent large-scale studies revealed that patients implanted with polymeric BRS experienced higher rates of scaffold thrombosis (ScT) and target lesion failure compared to those with metallic stents. Resorbable magnesium scaffolds (RMS) have emerged as a promising alternative owing to magnesium's natural degradability and favorable mechanical properties.
