Salivary inflammatory burden in pre‐ and postmenopausal women: Associations with body mass index, patient‐reported health, serum cytokines, and periodontal parameters

Journal of Periodontology, 2023
AbstractBackgroundThe decline of estrogen levels during menopause impacts weight, mood, and overall health, both orally and systemically. This study assessed salivary levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF‐α), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), IL‐10, and IL‐7 in postmenopausal (PMW) and regularly menstruating premenopausal (RMPW) women, while considering serum

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.
