Article Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess whether regular consumption of cranberry juice results in elevations in urinary salicylate concentrations in persons not taking salicylate drugs. Two groups of healthy female subjects (11/group) matched for age, weight, and height consumed 250 mL of either cranberry juice or a placebo solution three times a day (i.e., 750 mL/day) for 2 weeks. At weekly intervals, salicylic acid and salicyluric acid (the major urinary metabolite of salicylic acid) concentrations were determined in urine by HPLC with electrochemical detection. Concentrations of salicylic acid in plasma were also determined. Consumption of cranberry juice was associated with a marked increase (p < 0.001) of salicyluric and salicylic acids in urine within 1 week of the intervention. After 2 weeks, there was also a small but significant (p < 0.05) increase in salicylic acid in plasma. The regular consumption of cranberry juice results in the increased absorption of salicylic acid, an anti-inflammatory compound that may benefit health.

Objective: To determine the polyphenols and multi-elements in the 11 not from concentrated fruit juices on the market, understand their content characteristics and evaluate their nutrient value.
Methods: The contents of total anthocyanins, total polyphenols and 16 multi-elements in fruit juice were determined by pH differential method, colorimetric method using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and direct mercury analysis. The polyphenols and multi-elements in the fruit juices were analyzed by nutrient density(ND) and index of nutrient quality(INQ).

Food components and herbal substances can inhibit or enhance the therapeutic effects of drugs, thus influencing their efficacy and safety. As relatively little in known of these interactions, the aim of this review is to shed further light on the potentially dangerous influences that food and herbs may have on cytochrome P450 enzyme (CYP) and monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity in the first stage of drug biotransformation. The review includes documented cases in which such interactions have led to health complications in patients.

Objective: Several therapeutic modalities for the prevention of calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones have been studied, but only a select few of these modalities have been incorporated into the American Urological Association guidelines. Our study aimed to organize and interrogate existing research that may be promising for CaOx prevention.
Methods: A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE and Embase from inception to November 16, 2022.

Study Aims: Wheelchair athletes may be at risk of urinary tract infections, especially those with spinal cord injury. A urinary tract infection can lead to a loss of training hours and reduced performance in athletes. We assessed the self-reported occurrence of urinary tract infections and the impact of urinary tract infections on training and performance in elite wheelchair athletes.
