Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation was measured in vitro to determine intraindividual variability and to relate oxidation to linoleic acid enrichment. Intraindividual variability was determined for eight subjects on 3 consecutive days after 14 d on a fixed diet. Coefficients of variation were 7.49 +/- 1.50%, 6.58 +/- 1.16%, and 4.58 +/- 0.77% for oxidation rate, lag time, and diene concentration, respectively. In the second study 12 normolipidemic men consumed a daily diet supplement containing 35 g linoleate-rich oil in one period and 35 g oleate-rich oil in the other period (2 x 3 wk crossover). LDL oxidized faster after the linoleate diet than after the oleate diet (mean +/- SE: 16.42 +/- 0.85 and 13.16 +/- 0.68 nmol diene.mg LDL protein-1.min-1, respectively, P < 0.02) and produced more conjugated diene (416 +/- 12.60 and 379.29 +/- 11.06 nmol/mg protein, respectively, P < 0.05) in proportion to the increase in LDL linoleate (r = 0.698, P < 0.001 and r = 0.618, P < 0.01 for rate and diene concentration, respectively). Lag time before onset of oxidation was not significantly altered by the linoleate-rich diet.

Lipid variability (LV) has been studied and proposed as a potential predictor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), and increased LV may contribute to adverse clinical outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the association of various LV parameters with the risk of long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) among the Thai population. The study used data from the CORE-Thailand Registry, a prospective multicentre study of adults with high cardiovascular risk or established CVD.

Introduction: The use of medicinal plants in Algeria is an ancestral practice that remains relevant today. The population relies on plants to treat various diseases and everyday ailments, which can be dangerous, especially when taking medication [1,2]. The interaction between plants and medication can lead to a modification of the plasma concentrations of the latter, which can impact its therapeutic effectiveness and be responsible for toxicity or therapeutic failure [1,2].

Background: In clinical practice, several radiopharmaceuticals are used for PSMA-PET imaging, each with distinct biodistribution patterns. This may impact treatment decisions and outcomes, as eligibility for PSMA-directed radioligand therapy is usually assessed by comparing tumoral uptake to normal liver uptake as a reference. In this study, we aimed to compare tracer uptake intraindividually in various reference regions including liver, parotid gland and spleen as well as the respective tumor-to-background ratios (TBR) of different F-labeled PSMA ligands to today's standard radiopharmaceutical Ga-PSMA-11 in a series of patients with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer who underwent a dual PSMA-PET examination as part of an individualized diagnostic approach.

Background: People with diabetes often have increased blood pressure (BP) variability because of autonomic dysfunction and arterial stiffness, making it a critical factor in predicting clinical outcomes. We investigated the reproducibility of long-term visit-to-visit BP variability (VVV) and the minimum number of BP readings to reliably determine VVV in people with diabetes.
Methods: This multicenter retrospective study used data from electronic health records of the Korea University Medical Center database.
Characterizing Cognitive Dispersion and its Correlates Across the Adult Lifespan in MIDUS.

Objectives: Although research has shown that higher levels of within-person variability across cognitive tasks (dispersion) are associated with cognitive decline in clinical samples, little is known about dispersion in comparatively younger, non-clinical, and national samples. A better understanding of dispersion is needed to elucidate for whom and under what circumstances dispersion can be used as a reliable indicator of cognitive health.
Method: We used data from the Midlife in the United States Study (MIDUS; n = 2,229; Mage = 56 years, range = 33-83; 56% female) to: (a) characterize dispersion and its cross-sectional correlates in a non-clinical, adult lifespan sample and (b) examine changes in dispersion over time to determine for whom changes in dispersion may reflect better or worse cognitive aging.
