Background: Few studies have explored the relationship between macronutrient intake and sleep outcomes using daily data from mobile apps.
Objective: This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the associations between macronutrients, dietary components, and sleep parameters, considering their interdependencies.
Methods: We analyzed data from 4825 users of the Pokémon Sleep and Asken smartphone apps, each used for at least 7 days to record objective sleep parameters and dietary components, respectively.

Introduction: A strong and well-known association exists between salt consumption, potassium intake, and cardiovascular diseases. MINISAL-SIIA results showed high salt and low potassium consumption in Italian hypertensive patients. In addition, a recent Italian survey showed that the degree of knowledge and behaviour about salt was directly interrelated, suggesting a key role of the educational approach.

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are a cornerstone of guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), offering significant benefits in reducing mortality and hospitalizations. However, their use is often constrained by the risk of hyperkalemia, particularly in patients with chronic kidney disease. Patiromer and sodium zirconium cyclosilicate (SZC), two novel potassium binders, have emerged as highly effective and safe tools for managing hyperkalemia and enabling the optimization of MRA therapy.

The aim of the present study was to obtain new metal complexes of citrus pectin with cobalt ions based on potassium polygalacturonate and to prepare a new pharmacological composition (PC) PGKCo: PGNaCo (1:1) with antitumor activity based on potassium cobalt polygalacturonate (PGKCo) and sodium cobalt polygalacturonate (PGNaCo). The study of the effect of PGKCo, PGNaCo and PC on the cell viability of tumor cell lines of different genesis in vitro showed that the obtained compounds are soluble in water and exhibit selective cytotoxic activity against the tumor cell lines of human lung carcinoma A549, breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 and cervical carcinoma M-HeLa, with no significant toxic effect on normal human cells. The possible mechanism of action of the investigated PC on M-HeLa cancer cells was investigated.
