Amazonian Guarana‐ and Açai‐Conjugated Extracts Improve Scratched Fibroblast Healing and Eisenia fetida Surgical Tail Amputation by Modulating Oxidative Metabolism

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Previous studies have suggested that guarana (Paullinia cupana) and açai (Euterpe oleracea) have antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and proliferative properties, indicating their potential therapeutic action in wound healing. We produced a conjugated guarana‐açai (GA) extract and tested its healing action on earthworms (Eisenia fetida ...

Mortality in Elderly Patients Taking Furosemide: Prospective Cohorts Study

International Journal of Hypertension, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Objectives. Low blood pressure (BP) has been proposed as a risk factor of death in elderly patients. However, this association could be partially accounted for by the deleterious effects of BP‐lowering drugs. We analyzed whether these drugs are associated to an increased risk of death in elderly patients taking multiple potential confounders into ...

Bedside cognitive screening to detect dementia and predict poor outcomes in hospitals. [PDF]

Alzheimers Dement
Abstract INTRODUCTION Cognitive impairment in hospitalized older adults without delirium is often undiagnosed. We evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value of two brief bedside screening tools—the 10‐point Cognitive Screener (10‐CS) and Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire (SPMSQ).

Superoxide imbalance triggered by Val16Ala‐SOD2 polymorphism increases the risk of depression and self‐reported psychological stress in free‐living elderly people

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2020., 2020
Our results showed that the VV‐SOD2 genotype significantly increased the risk for depression and psychological stress in the elderly subjects. VV‐subjects also had a higher daily intake of antidepressants, anxiolytics, and anti‐inflammatory drugs.

Oxidative Stress Indexes for Diagnosis of Health or Disease in Humans

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Oxidative stress (OS) is the imbalance between oxidant and antioxidant molecules, in favor of oxidants, that causes aging and disease. Many studies have been published that demonstrate the relationship between OS and human health and disease; however, the following questions arise: (i) how are we sure that the OS is present in a biological process? (ii)

Tai Chi Exercise Increases SOD Activity and Total Antioxidant Status in Saliva and Is Linked to an Improvement of Periodontal Disease in the Elderly

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of Tai Chi on biological markers of oxidative stress in saliva and its relationship with periodontal disease (PD) in older adults. We carried out a quasi‐experimental study with a sample of 71 sedentary volunteers with PD who were divided into a control group of 34 subjects and an experimental group of ...

Effect of Tai Chi versus Walking on Oxidative Stress in Mexican Older Adults

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
It has recently been reported that the practice of Tai Chi reduces oxidative stress (OxS), but it is not clear whether walking or Tai Chi produces a greater antioxidant effect. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the practice of Tai Chi and walking on markers for OxS.
