CNS Mitochondria‐Derived Vesicle in Blood: Potential Biomarkers for Brain Mitochondria Dysfunction
ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's (PD). Our goal was to develop practical, noninvasive methods to assess mitochondrial status through the detection of mitochondria‐derived vesicles (MDVs).

A study on four feeding strategies of 100% organic origin for piglets concerning performance, health status, losses and economy in organic agriculture [PDF]
Organic agriculture is defined as a low-external-input-system but piglets’ necessity for high quality diets seems to contradict low-external-input feeding strategies.

Coffee Consumption Is Associated With Later Age‐at‐Onset of Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Observation studies suggest that coffee consumption may lower the risk and delay the age‐at‐onset (AAO) of Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of this study was to explore the causal relationship and genetic association between coffee consumption and the AAO, risk, and progression of PD. Using Mendelian randomization, we identified a significant

Variation in the apparent faecal digestibility of macronutrients and urinary energy excretion for three diets varying in fat and fibre content-- assessment of the Atwater factors and related energy conversion factors : a thesis presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Nutritional Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Background: Current systems to estimate dietary metabolisable energy (ME), often based on Atwater factors, assume that diet ME can be accurately predicted based on a few chemical components and that the ME of components is constant across foods ...

Diet quality in older age: the influence of childhood and adult socio-economic circumstances. [PDF]
Socio-economic gradients in diet quality are well established. However, the influence of material socio-economic conditions particularly in childhood, and the use of multiple disaggregated socio-economic measures on diet quality have been little studied ...

Before entering the special domain of the neurotic and discussing his proper diet, it will be necessary to devote a few minutes to the general subject of diet and the value of foods. The value of foods may be considered as three-fold: 1, the production of energy; 2, the repair of tissue; 3, the increase of adipose tissue to serve as a protection and ...

Objective Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a known comorbidity of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) and is associated with PsA disease activity. We aimed to explore the association between MetS and radiographic features (peripheral and axial) in PsA. Methods We included patients with PsA followed at our prospective observational cohort for the period between 1978 ...
