If we are living in a city where we are sure that the tap water is pure this still does not mean that the water is “pure”.

    on March 11, 2024

    A new study of how high school students respond to a program designed to increase the frequency and quality of conversations about race in school finds that the anti-racist intervention did not cause stress or feelings of alienation among study participants. The finding rebuts concerns that anti-racist programs are harmful to children and teens.

  • Blood-based marker developed to identify sleep deprivation
    on March 10, 2024

    A blood test that can accurately detect when someone has not slept for 24 hours has been developed.

  • COVID-19 virus can stay in the body more than a year after infection
    on March 8, 2024

    The COVID-19 virus can persist in the blood and tissue of patients for more than a year after the acute phase of the illness has ended, according to new research that offers potential clues to why some people develop long COVID.

  • New study reveals molecular fingerprint of biological aging
    on March 8, 2024

    Researchers have uncovered blood-based markers linked with healthy and rapid aging, allowing them to predict a person’s biological age — how fast a person’s cells and organs age regardless of their birth date.

  • Research sheds light on new strategy to treat infertility
    on March 8, 2024

    New research describes the science behind a promising technique to treat infertility by turning a skin cell into an egg that is capable of producing viable embryos. The technique could be used by women of advanced maternal age or for those who are unable to produce viable eggs due to previous treatment for cancer or other causes. It also raises the possibility of men in same-sex relationships having children who are genetically related to both parents.

  • ‘Double life’ of key immune protein reveals new strategies for treating cancer and autoimmune diseases
    on March 8, 2024

    Insights into the workings of an immune cell surface receptor, called PD-1, reveal how treatments that restrict its action can potentially be strengthened to improve their anticancer effect, a new study shows. The same findings also support experimental treatment strategies for autoimmune diseases, in which the immune system attacks the body, because stimulating the action of PD-1, as opposed to restricting it, can potentially block an overactive immune response.

  • Mutation solves a century-old mystery in meiosis
    on March 8, 2024

    A team deciphers complicated mechanism underlying genetic diversity.

  • Contribution of plant-based dairy and fish alternatives to iodine nutrition in the Swiss diet: a Swiss Market Survey
    on March 7, 2024

    CONCLUSION: Only four out of 477 plant-based alternative products are iodine fortified in the Swiss market. Thus, the risk for consumers to miss out on the ca. 25% of the RDA for iodine by consuming plant-based alternatives is high, placing them at a risk for inadequate iodine intake.

  • Popular Diets and Kidney Stones
    on March 7, 2024

    Popular diets often influence dietary patterns, which have different implications for kidney stone risk. Despite the wide variety of popular diets, some general principles can be gleaned from investigating their potential impact on nephrolithiasis. Plant-based diets, including Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, Mediterranean, flexitarian, and vegetarian diets, may protect against nephrolithiasis when they consist largely of unprocessed plant foods, while carbohydrate-restricted diets…

  • A whole-food, plant-based randomized controlled trial in metastatic breast cancer: weight, cardiometabolic, and hormonal outcomes
    on March 6, 2024

    CONCLUSION: WFPB dietary changes during treatment for metastatic breast cancer are well tolerated and significantly improve weight, cardiometabolic and hormonal parameters. Longer studies are warranted to assess the durability of changes. Trial registration First registered at Clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03045289) on February 7, 2017.

  • Plant-Based Diets and Risk of Hip Fracture in Postmenopausal Women
    on February 29, 2024

    CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Findings of this cohort study indicated that long-term adherence to healthful or unhealthful plant-based diets as assessed by hPDI and uPDI scores was not associated with hip fracture risk. Future research should clarify whether the associations observed with recent dietary intake are due to short-term effects of these dietary patterns, reverse causality, or both.

  • Profiles of Serum Fatty Acids in Healthy Women on Different Types of Vegetarian Diets
    on February 24, 2024

    CONCLUSION: The analysis of serum FAs and CRP levels in vegetarians and vegans suggests that factors other than diet alone influence inflammation and overall health status. Further research on long-term plant-based diet users is needed to better understand this issue, and supplementation with EPA and DHA is worth considering in vegans and vegetarians.
