Effects of source of supplementary trace minerals in pre- and postpartum diets on reproductive biology and performance in dairy cows Open
Our objectives were to evaluate the effects of complete replacement of inorganic salts of trace minerals (STM) with organic trace minerals (OTM) in both pre- and postpartum diets on ovarian dynamics, estrous behavior measured by sensors, p…

Dynamics of lipid droplets in the endometrium and fatty acids and oxylipins in the uterine lumen, blood, and milk of lactating cows during diestrus Open
Our objective was to investigate the lipid content of uterus, blood plasma, and milk at early, mid, and late diestrus. Lactating cows (n = 30) had the estrous cycle and ovulation synchronized by administration of exogenous hormones. Cows w…

Vitamin D-related Nutrigenetics and Cognitive Decline in an Elderly Population Open
Background and objectiveVitamin D has been linked to brain function. To date, there have been limited studies investigating vitamin D receptor (VDR) genetic polymorphisms and cognition. The objective of this study was, therefore, to examin…

InsuTAG: A novel physiologically relevant predictor for insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome Open
The aim of this study was to investigate whether a novel physiologically relevant marker, InsuTAG (fasting insulin × fasting triglycerides) can predict insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic syndrome (MetS). Data of 618 participants from th…

Temperature profiles of antibiotic-containing elastomeric infusion devices used by ambulatory care patients Open
Antibiotics administered to HITH patients via continuous infusion were frequently exposed to temperatures in excess of 25 °C. Specific patient behaviors and seasonal and chronological factors influenced temperatures. The findings challenge…
View article: Association between erythrocyte omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels and fatty liver index in older people is sex dependent
Association between erythrocyte omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid levels and fatty liver index in older people is sex dependent Open
Background/Objectives: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is highly prevalent in older people but currently no specific drugs are available for its treatment. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3PUFA), known for their lipid-lowe…
View article: Relationship between methylation status of vitamin D-related genes, vitamin D levels, and methyl-donor biochemistry
Relationship between methylation status of vitamin D-related genes, vitamin D levels, and methyl-donor biochemistry Open
Vitamin D is known for its role in the regulation of gene expression via the vitamin D receptor, a nuclear transcription factor. More recently, a role for vitamin D in regulating DNA methylation has been identified as an additional mechani…

Sex-dependent association between erythrocyte<i>n</i>-3 PUFA and type 2 diabetes in older overweight people Open
The association between n -3 PUFA intake and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is unclear, and studies relating objective biomarkers of n -3 PUFA consumption to diabetic status remain limited. The aim of this study was to determine whether erythrocyte…
