Abstract

There is a high prevalence of depressive disorders in all regions of the world. The importance of dietary factors in the causation of depression is suggested from epidemiologic studies in Western countries, but evidence from non-Western populations are lacking. We aimed to assess the relationship between dietary factors with depression scores in a cohort from north eastern Iran. A total of 7172 subjects (2725 men and 4447 women) were recruited. Dietary intake was assessed using a 24-h dietary recall questionnaire, and depressive symptoms were assessed using the Beck's depression questionnaire. The age of the population samples were 49.3 ± 8.2 years for the male and 48.1 ± 8.0 years for the female subgroups. Crude intake of MUFA, SFA and TFA in patients was associated with depression scores. On the other hand, there were significant correlations between depression score and total energy adjusted intake of trans-fatty acid (TFA), cholesterol, vitamin E (p < 0.01 for all parameters). There was an association between diet and depression score among a representative sample of individuals from north eastern Iran, with MUFA intake being inversely related, and vitamin E intake being directly related to Beck's depression score. However ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
