ABSTRACT Objective The albumin‐globulin ratio (AGR) is a biochemical marker reflecting nutritional and inflammatory status, with significant prognostic value in chronic conditions. This study examined its association with clinical/biochemical markers in adolescents with anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical AN (AAN).

Leptin Reduces Running in a Rodent Anorexia Nervosa Model via a Distributed Neural Network
ABSTRACT Objective Hyperactivity is a persistent and clinically relevant symptom in anorexia nervosa (AN). Hyperactivity is inversely correlated with leptin levels. While systemic leptin administration attenuates hyperactivity in rodent models, the specific brain regions mediating this effect remain unclear.

Effect of Dietary Phosphorus on Blood Phosphorus and Leukocyte Levels in Experimental Salmonellosis
SummaryGuinea pigs were fed purified diets containing either 0.4 or 1.0% phosphorus. The basal level was adequate to support maximal growth in noninfected guinea pigs. The higher phosphorus level slightly depressed the growth rate. Animals were inoculated with Salmonella typhimurium and observed for a period of 6 wk.

After collecting Musa paradisiaca leaves, some were dried and others were used to produce aqueous extracts. The extracts and powders were characterized and then administered to rats made anaemic by PHZ. After 14 days of administration of the two samples, the rats were euthanized and it was observed that after 9 days of treatment, the aqueous extract ...

Phosphorus digestibility response of broiler chickens to dietary calcium-to-phosphorus ratios
This study was conducted to evaluate the true digestibility of P in soybean meal (SBM) for broiler chickens fed diets with different dietary calcium-to-phosphorus ratios (Ca:P) using the regression method. The experiment used a 4 × 3 factorial arrangement with 12 diets formulated to contain combinations of 4 levels of dietary Ca:P: 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, or 2 ...

Boiling retained the nutrients and polyphenol compounds in Plectranthus esculentus tubers better than frying or roasting. A bioavailability study showed that the phytates and oxalates in the tuber may not affect the bioavailabilities of calcium, zinc, or iron in Plectranthus esculentus tubers when eaten.
