BACKGROUND: Honey is a vegetable and animal product which comes from nectar and / or honeydew. It is used in different nutritional and therapeutic fields. OBJECTIVE: Melissopalynology and physicochemical analysis of Algerian honeys, determination of their phenolic compounds and authenticity parameters and the evaluation of their antioxidant properties. METHODS: Twenty Algerians honey were studied for their physicochemical parameters (moisture, pH, proteins, proline, hydroxymethylfurfural, ash, color, electrical conductivity, and optical rotation), floral origin and phenolic compounds contents. Antioxidant activities were tested too. RESULTS: Melissopalynologycal analyses revealed that the studied honeys were twelve multifloral, seven Fabaceae, and one Myrtaceae. All honeys were acidic (3.65≤pH≤4.35) and most of them were low in moisture content. The electrical conductivity varied between 0.29 mS/cm and 1.78 mS/cm. Ash, protein and proline contents results showed that the majority of honeys were in agreement with the legislation and were authentic. The color varied from mimosa yellow to dark brown. The specific rotation was levorotatory in most honey samples and the hydroxymethylfurfural values (from 1.5 mg/kg to 34.73 mg/kg) agreed with the international requirements. Honeys were rich in total phenolic compounds, 22.41 (Honey11) to 96.16 (Honey15)  mg gallic acid equivalents/100 g, and flavonoids, 8.90 (Honey11) to 80.02 (Honey 02) mg quercetin equivalents/100 g. Honey samples 15,03, 05, 01, and 06 exerted more than 50% reduction of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) radicals and were able to reduce iron while honey samples 12, 18, 19, 14, and 11chelate efficiently iron. High significant correlations between physicochemical parameters and antioxidant activities were found. CONCLUSION: The Algerian honeys analyzed were authentic and variations in their quality parameters and phenolics composition were directly associated with their demonstrated antioxidant properties.

BACKGROUND: Borassus aethiopum fruit is claimed to be used for the management of diabetes without scientific validation. OBJECTIVE: This study seeks to evaluate the antihyperglycaemic activity of ethanol fruit extract of Borassus aethiopum in alloxan-induced diabetic rats. METHODS: 36 rats were placed in six groups (i-vi) (n = 6). Animals in group i (standard) were given 0.4 mls of distilled water (d.w) whereas the ones assigned to group ii, iii, iv, v and vi which were induced into diabetes (by intake of 140 mg/kg body weight [b.w] of alloxan) were also respectively given d.w, 50 mg/kg b.w of metformin, 25, 50 and 100 mg/kg b.w of ethanol fruit extract of Borassus aethiopum, once daily for 14 days. RESULTS: Flavonoid found in the extract (24.04 mg/ml) occurred the most with phenolic (0.35 mg/ml) being the least. While alloxan substantially (p <  0.05) increased the levels of some biological molecules and enzyme activity, it lowered those of others. The extract however significantly (p <  0.05) reversed all the alloxan-induced alterations, with the extract at 100 mg/kg b.w producing figures that compared (p >  0.05) well with those of the d.w treated non-diabetic animals and metformin-treated diabetic animals. The extract also renewed the wholeness of histological damage in the pancreas. CONCLUSION: The bioactive agents of B. aethiopum presented antihyperglycaemic property by preventing diabetes via reversal of alloxan-treatment alterations in the animals.
背景:在未经科学验证的情况下,有人声称Borasus aethiopum果实可用于治疗糖尿病。目的:本研究旨在评价四氧嘧啶诱导的糖尿病大鼠的高血糖作用。方法:将36只大鼠分为6组(i-vi)(n = 6) 。第i组(标准)的动物给予0.4 mls蒸馏水(d.w),而被分为第ii、iii、iv、v和vi组的蒸馏水被诱导为糖尿病(通过摄入140 mg/kg体重[b.w]的四氧嘧啶)也分别给予d.w,50 mg/kg b.w的二甲双胍,25、50和100 mg/kg b.w的水松乙醇果实提取物,每天一次,持续14天。结果:提取物中发现黄酮类化合物(24.04 mg/ml)与酚类(0.35 mg/ml)是最小的。而四氧嘧啶实质上(p <  0.05)增加了一些生物分子的水平和酶活性,而降低了其他生物分子和酶活性。然而,提取物显著(p <  0.05)逆转了所有四氧嘧啶诱导的改变,提取物为100 毫克/千克体重产生的数字与(p >  0.05)与d.w治疗的非糖尿病动物和二甲双胍治疗的糖尿病动物的那些相比良好。提取物还恢复了胰腺组织学损伤的完整性。结论:乙硫普的生物活性剂通过逆转动物四氧嘧啶治疗的改变来预防糖尿病,具有抗高血糖的特性。

BACKGROUND: Exclusive breastfeeding is the best form of nutrition for infants during the first 6 months of life. Nevertheless, the practice of breastfeeding is currently declining throughout the world. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) practice and its associated factors among mothers living in Marrakesh province, Morocco. METHODS: The data were collected using an interviewer administered questionnaire. Both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with exclusive breastfeeding practice. RESULTS: Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was 50.2%. Mothers with age more than 30 years, residing in rural area, receiving counseling related breastfeeding during antenatal follow up and having knowledge about duration of breastfeeding were more likely to practice exclusive breastfeeding than their counterparts. CONCLUSION: Although the prevalence of breastfeeding in Marrakesh was higher than the last national survey report but it is still insufficient. These findings have to stress authorities and deciders to sensitize mothers and future mothers to increase exclusive breastfeeding practice notably through the involvement of health professionals.
背景:纯母乳喂养是婴儿生命最初6个月的最佳营养形式。然而,目前全世界母乳喂养的做法正在减少。目的:本研究的目的是评估生活在摩洛哥马拉喀什省的母亲中纯母乳喂养(EBF)的流行程度及其相关因素。方法:采用问卷调查法收集资料。采用双变量和多变量logistic回归分析来确定与纯母乳喂养实践相关的因素。结果:纯母乳喂养的患病率为50.2%。年龄在30岁以上、居住在农村地区、在产前随访期间接受母乳喂养相关咨询并了解母乳喂养持续时间的母亲比其同行更有可能实行纯母乳喂养。结论:虽然马拉喀什母乳喂养的流行率高于上次全国调查报告,但仍然不足。这些发现必须强调,当局和决策者必须提高母亲和未来母亲的认识,特别是通过卫生专业人员的参与,增加纯母乳喂养的做法。

BACKGROUND: Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents are serious public health issues worldwide. A better understanding of the relationships between obesity and lifestyle factors is necessary for effective prevention and management of obesity in youth. AIMS: This study aimed to assess the prevalence of overweight/obesity and associated factors among schoolchildren aged 12–19 years at Beni Mellal city, Morocco. METHODS: A school based cross sectional study was carried out. A total of 516 children were included in the study. The nutritional status was classified according to the reference curves of WHO (2007). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with overweight/obesity. The association between dependent and independent variables were assessed using odds ratio with 95% confidence interval and p value <  0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS: The prevalence of overweight was 12.40% and that of obesity was 5.20%. Overweight and obesity were statistically associated with gender (Odds Ratio (OR) = 10.15[95% CI 1.37–3.81], p = 0.001); skipping breakfast (OR = 9.19 [95% CI 1.42–5.17], p = 0.002) and eating cake, pastry and biscuit 1 to 3 times per week (OR = 4.14 [95% CI 1.02–3.25], p = 0.04) and 4 or more times a week (OR = 7.83 [95% CI 1.31–4.66], p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed that prevalence of overweight/obesity among school-aged children in Beni Mellal city was high. Thus, promoting healthy dietary practices, particularly improving fruit and vegetable intake is essential to reduce the burden of overweight and obesity. Furthermore, it is important to strengthen nutrition education about avoiding junk food consumption and encouraging regular physical activity.
背景:儿童和青少年超重和肥胖是世界范围内严重的公共卫生问题。更好地了解肥胖与生活方式因素之间的关系是有效预防和管理青少年肥胖的必要条件。目的:本研究旨在评估摩洛哥贝尼梅拉尔市12-19岁学龄儿童中超重/肥胖的患病率及其相关因素。方法:以学校为基础进行横断面研究。共有516名儿童参与了这项研究。根据世界卫生组织(2007)的参考曲线对营养状况进行分类。采用多变量logistic回归分析确定与超重/肥胖相关的因素。因变量和自变量之间的相关性采用比值比评估,置信区间为95%,p值< 0.05认为有统计学意义。结果:超重患病率为12.40%,肥胖患病率为5.20%。超重和肥胖在统计学上与性别相关(优势比(OR) = 10.15[95% CI 1.37-3.81], p = 0.001);不吃早餐(OR = 9.19 [95% CI 1.42-5.17], p = 0.002),每周吃1至3次蛋糕、糕点和饼干(OR = 4.14 [95% CI 1.02-3.25], p = 0.04),每周吃4次或更多(OR = 7.83 [95% CI 1.31-4.66], p = 0.005)。结论:本研究揭示贝尼梅拉尔市学龄儿童超重/肥胖患病率较高。因此,促进健康的饮食习惯,特别是改善水果和蔬菜的摄入量,对于减轻超重和肥胖的负担至关重要。此外,加强有关避免垃圾食品消费和鼓励定期体育锻炼的营养教育也很重要。

BACKGROUND: Diarrhea in patients on enteral feeding is a common complication with serious clinical outcomes. In Eastern and Southern Mediterranean regions, using curd as a food for the treatment of diarrhea is a common practice. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether curd could reduce the duration or severity of diarrhea in critically ill tube-fed patients with head trauma. METHODS: A total of 42 patients on enteral feeding who had diarrhea after starting enteral feeding, admitted to the intensive care unit, were randomly assigned to either to receiving curd and standard enteral formula or standard enteral formula only groups. The intervention period for each patient was three days. The primary outcome was the duration of diarrhea, while the secondary outcomes were the frequency and weight of stool per day in each patient. RESULTS: This study showed a significantly higher stool weight in patients receiving enteral curd (588.76±266.88 vs 390.60±171.82 gr/day). There was no significant difference between the groups in duration of diarrhea (9 v 8 days) and episodes of diarrhea per day (2.20±1.00 vs 2.00±0.70) in intervention and control groups. incidence of liquid or loose stools on days 1–4 of the intervention (P1 = 0.43, P2 = 0.16, P3 = 0.45, P4 = 0.62). Feeding with curd did not change the APACHE score in intervention and control groups. This study showed no significant difference in 28 days of mortality in intervention and control groups. CONCLUSION: The findings showed that supplementary enteral feeding with curd did not improve diarrhea, the severity of the disease, or 28 days mortality in critically ill patients with diarrhea receiving enteral nutrition.
背景:肠内喂养患者腹泻是一种常见的并发症,具有严重的临床后果。在地中海东部和南部地区,使用凝乳作为治疗腹泻的食物是一种常见的做法。目的:本研究旨在探讨凝乳是否能减少头部外伤重症管饲患者腹泻的持续时间和严重程度。方法:将42例开始肠内喂养后出现腹泻的肠内喂养患者随机分为凝乳加标准肠内配方组和仅标准肠内配方组。每位患者的干预期为3天。主要结局是腹泻的持续时间,而次要结局是每个患者每天大便的频率和重量。结果:本研究显示,接受肠内凝乳治疗的患者粪便重量显著增加(588.76±266.88克/天vs 390.60±171.82克/天)。干预组和对照组腹泻持续时间(9天vs 8天)和每天腹泻次数(2.20±1.00次vs 2.00±0.70次)差异无统计学意义。干预第1 ~ 4天液体或稀便发生率(P1 = 0.43, P2 = 0.16, P3 = 0.45, P4 = 0.62)。饲喂凝乳对干预组和对照组的APACHE评分没有影响。本研究显示干预组与对照组28天死亡率无显著差异。结论:本研究结果表明,在接受肠内营养的重症腹泻患者中,补充肠内喂养凝乳并没有改善腹泻、疾病严重程度或28天死亡率。

BACKGROUND: Hyperlipidemia associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is a global health issue that can be alleviated by functional foods. OBJECTIVES: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of composite oil (CO) of sesame seed oil (SSiO) and Vicia faba seed oil (SVfO) on inflammatory factors, ROS generation level, and cell apoptosis level on high lipid diet (HLD) induced hyperlipidemic rat model. METHODS: Hyperlipidemic rat model was developed by feeding HLD to the experimental rats for eight weeks. Male albino rats weighing around 200–210 g were randomly divided into three equal groups: group I: control, received a normal diet; group II: received HLD for eight weeks, and group III: received the HLD with CO orally. After 60 days of treatment, the levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-10; tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, IL-18, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and cell apoptosis were serially assessed. RESULTS: After eight weeks of CO treatment, TNF- α, IL-18, CRP, and oxidative ROS generation significantly decreased in CO treated group (group III) compared to group II. On the other hand, IL-10 levels significantly increased in CO treated group compared to group II animals. It was also observed that the percentage of the late apoptotic cell reduced considerably in the CO treated group (group III) compared to HLD-fed animals (group II). CONCLUSION: The results indicate that the CO could prevent CVDs via suppressing oxidative stress, and ameliorating inflammation and apoptosis in hyperlipidemic rats.

BACKGROUND: Children’s dietary behaviors seem tract into adulthood and as a result preventing strategies to establish healthy behaviors from early stages of life are needed. Nutrition knowledge is essential for behavioral change. OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the status of parental health related to their children’s nutrition literacy level through their perceptions mainly of healthy eating attitudes METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Greece among 1,728 schoolchildren aged 10–12 years old. The sample was collected in the school setting during the school years of 2014–2016. Children completed anonymously a self-administered questionnaire about their knowledge and perceptions of a healthy diet while their parents completed another suitable questionnaire about family health status. RESULTS: Paternal BMI status and hypertension were inversely associated with the level of nutrition literacy of their children by b = –0.043 (95%CI: (–0.082, –0.003; p = 0.036) and by b = –0.600 (95%CI: –1.181, –0.019; p = 0.043), respectively. Parental health status, specifically, paternal diabetes and maternal dyslipidemia were associated with children’s higher level of nutrition literacy by b = 0.729 (95%CI: 0.002, 1.456; p = 0.049) and by b = 0.730 (95%CI: 0.086, 1.374; p = 0.026), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Parental health status partially affects, either negatively or positively, the level of nutrition literacy of their children. This impact depends on whether parents follow nutritional recommendations to improve their health.
背景:儿童的饮食行为似乎延伸到成年期,因此需要从生命早期阶段建立健康行为的预防策略。营养知识对行为的改变至关重要。目的:研究父母健康状况是否通过对健康饮食态度的认知与子女营养素养水平相关。方法:在希腊对1728名10-12岁学龄儿童进行横断面调查。样本于2014-2016学年在学校环境中采集。儿童匿名填写了一份关于他们对健康饮食的知识和看法的自我管理问卷,而他们的父母填写了另一份关于家庭健康状况的适当问卷。结果:父亲的BMI状况和高血压与其子女的营养素养水平呈负相关(95%CI: (-0.082, -0.003;p = 0.036)和b = -0.600(95%置信区间ci: -1.181, -0.019;P = 0.043)。父母健康状况,特别是父亲糖尿病和母亲血脂异常与儿童较高的营养素养水平相关,相关性为b = 0.729 (95%CI: 0.002, 1.456;p = 0.049)和b = 0.730(95%置信区间ci: 0.086, 1.374;P = 0.026)。结论:父母健康状况对子女的营养素养水平有一定的影响,可能是消极的,也可能是积极的。这种影响取决于父母是否遵循营养建议来改善他们的健康。

BACKGROUND: The present work stands as an endeavor to uncover the ideal harvesting time of leaves in which they exhibits the maximum contents of bioactive molecules such as essential fatty acids, tocopherols and carotenoids. METHODS: A large scale investigation was carried out for the leaves of Pistacia atlantica involving a large number of populations collected over a period of four months during the growing season. The antioxidant activity was evaluated using both DPPH and β-carotene assays. The chemical percentage variability of the fatty acids was investigated using statistical analysis methods (Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering “AHC”, also cited as CAH). OBJECTIVE: During the growth period, the effects of harvesting date on the total contents of lipids, tocopherols, carotenoids, fatty acids composition and also the antioxidant activities of the lipids were investigated. RESULTS: The content of myristic acid and other saturated fatty acids increased during leaf development, while linoleic, linolenic acids and unsaturated fatty acids decreased. The highest percentages of both linolenic C18:3 (27.25±5.92%) and linoleic acids C18:2 (17.68±3.80%) were obtained for the month of May at the first stage of leaves development (young leaves), but higher percentage levels of C18:1, were obtained for both consecutive months of August & September (28.83±6.50%; 27.79±8.63%, respectively) at intermediate developing stage. The lipids, tocopherols, carotenoids contents and the saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were dependent on the harvest time. The antioxidant activity showed higher powers at the first developing stage (May). Two main clusters and two sub-clusters of the fatty acids were distinguished and were also depending clearly on the period of the collection. CONCLUSIONS: The results showed that the FA were dependent on the period of collection of the leaves. The main result of this study illustrate the nutritional potential (richness in MUFA such as C18:1, 2, 3) of the oil of P. atlantica leaves, which can provide opportunities for rational exploitation in the food industries or for medicinal purposes.
背景:本研究旨在揭示植物叶片中必需脂肪酸、生育酚和类胡萝卜素等生物活性分子含量最高的理想收获时间。方法:对生长季节4个月采集的大量种群进行大面积调查。采用DPPH和β-胡萝卜素测定法评价其抗氧化活性。采用统计分析方法(AHC,也称为CAH)对脂肪酸的化学百分比变异性进行了研究。目的:研究不同采收期对黄芪生长过程中脂质总含量、生育酚、类胡萝卜素、脂肪酸组成及抗氧化活性的影响。结果:在叶片发育过程中,肉豆蔻酸和其他饱和脂肪酸含量增加,亚油酸、亚麻酸和不饱和脂肪酸含量减少。亚麻酸C18:3(27.25±5.92%)和亚油酸C18:2(17.68±3.80%)的含量在叶片发育第一阶段(嫩叶)的5月份最高,但连续8月和9月的C18:1含量均较高(28.83±6.50%);(27.79±8.63%)。脂质、生育酚、类胡萝卜素含量以及饱和和不饱和脂肪酸含量与采收期有关。抗氧化活性在第一个发育阶段(5月)表现出较高的水平。脂肪酸的两个主要簇和两个亚簇被区分开来,并且也明显取决于收集的时间。结论:结果表明,黄芪总FA与采收时间有关。本研究的主要结果说明了大西洋叶油的营养潜力(丰富的MUFA如c18: 1,2,3),这可以为合理开发利用提供机会在食品工业或药用。

BACKGROUND: The phytochemical contents of traditional foods are necessary to further elucidate the impacts of the Mediterranean diet on health. Çalkama is traditional food prepared by using wild green plants including chard (Beta vulgaris var.cicl), wild fennel (Foeniculum vulgare spp), common mellow (Malva sylvestris L), common poppy (Papaver rhoeas L), dock (Rumex spp), common nettle (Urtica dioica L), sow-thistle (Sonchus asper (L) Hill), common stork’s bill (Erodium circutarium (L)L Hér) and wild leek (Allium ampeloprasum L). OBJECTIVE: In this research, the antioxidant activity and the flavonoid and phenolic acid composition were separately analyzed for each plant and çalkama. METHODS: Total phenolic content, total flavonoid content and total antioxidant capacity of each plant and çalkama were measured spectrophotometric assays. Ultra-fast liquid chromatography (UFLC) was performed to detect specific flavonoid groups. RESULTS: It was detected that one portion of çalkama (100 g) contained approximately 250 mg of flavonoids. Particularly, quercetin and apigenin contributed to the main flavonoid source and chlorogenic acid was the major phenolic acid in çalkama. CONCLUSIONS: According to our findings, this food can be considered as a good phenolic and flavonoid source which protects its high antioxidant capacity through preparation and cooking processes.
背景:传统食物中的植物化学成分对进一步阐明地中海饮食对健康的影响是必要的。Çalkama是利用甜菜(Beta vulgaris var.cicl)、野生茴香(Foeniculum vulgare spp)、普通香醇(Malva sylvestris L)、普通罂粟(Papaver rhoeas L)、dock (Rumex spp)、普通荨麻(Urtica dioica L)、小蓟(Sonchus asper (L) Hill)、普通鹳嘴(Erodium circutarium (L)L h)和野生韭菜(Allium ampeloprasum L)等野生绿色植物制成的传统食品。在本研究中,分别分析了每种植物和碱类植物的抗氧化活性以及类黄酮和酚酸的组成。方法:采用分光光度法测定各植物总酚含量、总黄酮含量和总抗氧化能力。采用超快速液相色谱法(UFLC)检测特定的类黄酮基团。结果:测得1份(100 g) 烷酸ama中黄酮类化合物含量约250 mg。其中,槲皮素和芹菜素是主要的类黄酮来源,绿原酸是主要的酚酸。结论:该食品可作为一种良好的酚类和类黄酮来源,通过制备和烹饪过程保护其较高的抗氧化能力。

BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a lifelong metabolic disease with a high rate of mortality and morbidity. Uncontrolled and untreated diabetes results in serious complications that subsequently cause patients’ quality of life (QoL) to deteriorate. Adherence to Mediterranean diet (MD) may relieve the complications of diabetes, thereby improving the quality of life for these patients. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the QoL of DM patients who adhered to MD. METHODS: In this cross-sectional study, we examined the QoL and MD data of 106 DM II patients being treated at a primary health care clinic in Hebron. We used the SF-36 questionnaire to measure the patients’ QoL and the MEDAS tool to assess their MD adherence. We also recorded their anthropometric measurements, abdominal obesity, lifestyle habits and blood biochemical results. RESULTS: The sample comprised male and female DM II patients between the ages of 35 and 72, with their mean age being 55.8±10.24. Patients’ QoL scores showed a significant relationship with three BMI categories, i.e., total QoL score, physical function, and pain domains (p <  0.05). In terms of diet, high adherence to MD had a positive impact on all domains and on patients’ total QoL with significant differences in physical functioning, emotional well-being, social functioning and pain domains. CONCLUSION: Patients’ QoL domains were relatively low and highly affected by DM II. Patients with greater MD adherence reported higher scores in all QoL domains. Significantly higher scores were noted for the physical, social and pain domains. Hence, MD is a recommended dietary pattern for DM II patients to achieve a better QoL.
背景:糖尿病(DM)是一种死亡率和发病率都很高的终身代谢性疾病。未经控制和治疗的糖尿病会导致严重的并发症,进而导致患者的生活质量(QoL)恶化。坚持地中海饮食(MD)可以减轻糖尿病的并发症,从而改善这些患者的生活质量。目的:本研究的目的是评估坚持MD治疗的糖尿病患者的生活质量。方法:在这项横断面研究中,我们检查了在希伯伦一家初级卫生保健诊所接受治疗的106名II型糖尿病患者的生活质量和生活质量数据。我们使用SF-36问卷测量患者的生活质量,并使用MEDAS工具评估患者的MD依从性。我们还记录了他们的人体测量、腹部肥胖、生活习惯和血液生化结果。结果:样本包括35 ~ 72岁的男性和女性糖尿病患者,平均年龄为55.8±10.24岁。患者生活质量评分与BMI总生活质量评分、身体功能评分、疼痛域评分有显著相关性(p < 0.05)。在饮食方面,高依从性MD对所有领域和患者的总生活质量都有积极影响,在身体功能、情绪健康、社会功能和疼痛领域存在显著差异。结论:糖尿病患者生活质量域较低,且受糖尿病影响较大。MD依从性越高的患者在所有生活质量领域的得分都越高。身体、社交和疼痛领域的得分明显更高。因此,MD是糖尿病II型患者获得更好生活质量的推荐饮食模式。

Hence, MD is a recommended dietary pattern for DM II patients to achieve a better QoL.","PeriodicalId":18424,"journal":{"name":"Mediterranean Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.3233/MNM-200515","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70142488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
