Exploring Exercise-induced Long QT: A Scoping Review of Reversibility Through Detraining and Distinction from Long QT Syndrome.

Exercise-induced long QT may mimic congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS), risking misdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment. This scoping review explores its reversibility through detraining and differentiation from congenital LQTS. A systematic search of five databases identified six studies involving 196 subjects.

Sub-acute polyethylene microplastic inhalation exposure induced pulmonary toxicity in wistar rats through inflammation and oxidative stress.

Plastic waste, particularly polyethylene (PE) plastic bags and bottles, poses a significant environmental problem and health risk when degraded into microplastics. Recent atmospheric microplastic pollution increases inhalation exposure, necessitating a study on toxicity in the lungs. However, the inhalation toxicology of PE microplastics is poorly understood.

Determining the Risk of Type 2 Diabetes for rs1801133 Genotypes in Multiethnic Populations: A Global Meta-Epidemiological Study.

The rs1801133 (C677T) polymorphism of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene has been linked to type 2 diabetes (T2D) risk. This study aimed to assess the association between rs1801133 genotypes (CC, CT, TT) and T2D across multiethnic populations and to identify genotype- and region-specific risks. A global meta-epidemiological analysis was conducted using data from 19 studies comprising 6479 participants from Asia, Africa, Europe, and America.

The forgotten link: how the oral microbiome shapes childhood growth and development.

Childhood stunting, defined as impaired linear growth and development, remains a significant global health challenge with long-term consequences on cognitive and physical well-being. Emerging evidence highlights the pivotal role of the oral microbiome-a dynamic microbial ecosystem-in influencing nutritional status, immune response, and overall systemic health. This review explores the intricate interplay between the oral microbiome and stunting, emphasizing mechanisms such as microbial dysbiosis, its impact on nutrient absorption, and immune modulation.
