Background: Whether medium-term increased water intake alone, or in combination with co-adjuvant nonexercise interventions aimed to expand blood volume (BV), improve the human cardiovascular phenotype and cardiorespiratory fitness remains unexplored.
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the medium-term impact of increased (+40%) fluid (water) intake (IFI) or IFI plus head-up sleep (IFI + HUS) on BV and the cardiovascular phenotype in healthy individuals.
Methods: Healthy adults (n = 35, age 42 ± 18 years, 51% female) matched by sex, age, body composition, physical activity, and cardiorespiratory fitness were randomly allocated to IFI or IFI + HUS for 3 months.

Tanimilast is an inhaled phosphodiesterase-4 inhibitor currently in phase III clinical development for treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. This trial aimed to characterize the pharmacokinetics, mass balance, and metabolite profiling of tanimilast. Eight healthy male volunteers received a single dose of nonradiolabeled tanimilast via powder inhaler (Chiesi NEXThaler [3200 μg]), followed by a concomitant intravenous infusion of a microtracer ([C]-tanimilast: 18.

This study aimed to investigate the thermal plasma treatment of sewage sludge as an alternative waste management solution. Samples were collected from a sewage treatment facility in São Paulo, Brazil, and subjected to thermal treatments in a furnace at temperatures of 400, 600, 800, and 900 °C to assess moisture content, mass loss, and ash composition. Subsequently, the samples were processed in a thermal plasma reactor operating at an average power of 30 kW.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the leading health problems in the world. It is silent in the early stages and gradually progresses, inducing renal physiological and structural alterations. Moreover, CKD is associated with impaired life quality, increased risk for cardiovascular diseases, and reduced life expectancy.

Interleukin-1β is one of the major cytokines involved in the initiation and persistence of airway inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the association between plasma interleukin-1β and lung function decline remains unclear. We aimed to explore the association between plasma interleukin-1β and lung function decline.
