Micro‐ and nanoplastics in gastrointestinal disorders: Mapping the translational gap between exposure, biomonitoring, and pathogenic mechanisms

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights critical “translational gaps” in understanding micro‐ and nanoplastics impacts on gastrointestinal diseases, bridging exposure, detecting, and mechanistic toxicology. Abstract Micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) have become pervasive environmental contaminants with increasing evidence linking them to adverse health outcomes.

Randomized crossover comparison between the i-gel and the LMA-Unique in anaesthetized, paralysed adults [PDF]

, 2009
<b>Background</b>: The i-gel differs from other supraglottic airway devices, in that it has a softer, non-inflatable cuff. This study was designed to compare the performance of the i-gel and the LMA-Unique (LMA-U) when used during anaesthesia

Restrict for Health or for Thinness? Liking but Not Approach Bias Differentiates Orthorexic Eating Behavior From Anorexia Nervosa in Responses to High‐Caloric Healthy vs. High‐Caloric Unhealthy Foods

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Individuals with high levels of orthorexic eating behavior (OEB) show a (pathological) fixation on healthy eating. Shared characteristics of OEB with individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) raised debate over whether orthorexia nervosa constitutes a distinct disorder. Distinctions may lie in preference for and approach behavior toward
