Background: The clinical efficacies of anticancer drugs are limited by non-selective toxic effects on healthy tissues and low bioavailability in tumor tissue. Therefore, the development of vehicles that can selectively deliver and release drugs at the tumor site is critical for further improvements in patient survival.
Methods: We prepared a CEC nano-drug delivery system, CEC@ZIF-8, with a zeolite imidazole framework-8 (ZIF-8) as a carrier, which can achieve the response of folate receptor (FR).

Background: Proactively preventing postpartum weight retention (PPWR) is one of the effective intervention strategies to reduce the occurrence of obesity in women. Population studies have shown that serum folate levels are closely related to body weight. The regulation of folic acid on lipid metabolism has been fully confirmed in both in vivo and in vitro studies.

This study selected three approved folate sources-folic acid (FA), L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate (MTFA), and calcium 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (CMTFA)-to explore their interaction mechanisms with soy protein isolate (SPI) through spectrofluorometric analysis and molecular docking simulations. We investigated how these interactions influence the structural and physicochemical stability of folates and SPI. Three folates spontaneously bound to SPI, forming complexes, resulting in a decrease of approximately 30 kJ·mol in Gibbs free energy and an association constant (K) of 10 L·mol.

Introduction: Anemia is a severe public health problem in India, affecting more than 50% of individuals across most age groups. The Anemia Mukt Bharat (AMB) program, with a target of a three-percentage point reduction in anemia prevalence per year, developed a monitoring mechanism based on a set of 18 indicators and six key performance indicators (KPIs) derived from routine reporting in the Health Management Information System (HMIS). The study's objective was to assess the status of anemia control measures in the district of Faridabad, Haryana, India, using AMB HMIS indicators from April 2018 to March 2019.
