Background and Objectives: Hypercapnic respiratory failure (HRF) is a critical clinical condition commonly encountered in acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), leading to high morbidity and mortality rates. The existing...

Accurate quantification in LC–MS experiments becomes challenging when analytes overlap both chromatographically and in mass spectra, as conventional extracted ion chromatogram-based methods can yield biased results by double-counting shared iso...

Comparison of small molecules is a common component of many cheminformatics workflows, including the design of new compounds and libraries as well as side-effect predictions and drug repurposing. Currently, large-scale comparison methods rely mostly...

The aim was to evaluate the effect of caffeine (CAF) and extra virgin coconut oil (CO), isolated or combined, on running performance in runners. Methods: A randomized, placebo-controlled, and crossover study was conducted with thirteen recreational r...

Consumption of coffee has benefits in postoperative ileus. We tested the hypothesis that the benefits may be related to the effects of coffee on gut microbiota and motility and studied the mechanisms of action in rats. The in vitro and in vivo effect...

Caffeine-containing, nutritionally fortified energy shots are consumed at high rates by adolescents, yet little is known about their metabolic impact. The purpose of this study was to examine the consequences of small format, caffeinated energy shots...

In recent years, the shift to a circular economy (CE) has become an increasingly important component of the European Union’s development strategy. However, no consensus has yet been reached on the depth of the transformation this implies, nor o...

Multiple unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) systems have attracted considerable research interest due to their broad applications, such as formation control. However, decentralized UAV formation faces challenges stemming from limited local observations, w...

The aim of this work was to study the potential of food waste materials (banana peel, potato peel, apple peel, lemon peel, coffee waste, decaf coffee waste, grape waste, and carob peel) as low-cost adsorbents for the removal of aliphatic and aromatic...

It is well known that the Mediterranean diet contributes to healthy living, prevention of non-communicable diseases, and longevity. A cross-sectional study was conducted with participants from Greece who follow the Mediterranean diet and were further...

Dichloromethane (DCM) is extensively used around the globe in various applications, such as in closed industrial installations for food processing or pharmaceutical extractions (vitamins, antibiotics, etc.). In the coffee sector, it is used as an ext...

There is plausible biological evidence as well as epidemiologic evidence to suggest coffee consumption may lower endometrial cancer risk. We evaluated the associations between self-reported total coffee, caffeinated coffee and decaffeinated coffee, a...

DNA damage in early-stage embryos impacts development and is a risk factor for segregation of altered genomes. DNA damage response (DDR) encompasses a sophisticated network of proteins involved in sensing, signaling, and repairing damage. DDR is regu...

Background/Objectives: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains a major global health problem, affecting over 300 million people worldwide. Its high morbidity and mortality rates impose substantial psychosocial and financial burdens on pa...
