Aqueous lupine seeds (Lupinus albus L.) extracts were evaluated as a natural fat substitute in low-fat yogurt production. Thus, the chemical composition, particle size, molecular weight, total phenolic (TPC), and total flavonoids (TFC) of selected extract were estimated. Also, the antimicrobial activity and antioxidant capacity of selected extract were investigated. Yogurt with neutral lupine extract (NeLP) had the highest all sensorial attributes compared to other extracts. Also, the incorporation of NeLP during low-fat yogurt processing increased the solid content, viscosity, as well as improved the textural profile and sensorial attributes without any negative effect of yogurt's color...

INTRODUCTION: The growing diversity of the United States population and strong evidence of disparities in health care make it critically important to educate health care professionals to effectively address issues of culture. To that end, we developed a simulation for teaching interpreter use in a telehealth setting. Our contribution of non-English language preference (NELP) patient cases in Spanish, Tagalog, French, and Igbo advances existing literature by combining the skills of interpreter use and telehealth while widening the array of cultures represented...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Asthma is a leading cause of health care utilization in children and disproportionately affects historically marginalized populations. Yet, limited data exist on the role of caregiver language preference on asthma morbidity. The study aim was to determine whether caregiver non-English language preference (NELP) is associated with unscheduled asthma-related health care utilization in pediatric patients. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study using data from a population-level, disease-specific registry of pediatric patients with asthma living in the District of Columbia (DC)...

BACKGROUND: Individuals with non-English language preferences (NELP) represent a growing proportion of the USA population. Prior studies demonstrate disparate health outcomes related to NELP status; however, this patient population is often excluded from medical research. There is a paucity of literature describing the impact of NELP status on trauma, specifically injury and outcomes related to vehicle occupants injured during motor vehicle collisions (MVCs). The goal of this study was to evaluate the representation of patients with NELP in both emergency medicine and trauma literature...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Linguistic services, including verbal interpretation and written translation, are critical to providing equitable health care for families with non-English language preference (NELP). Despite evidence of provider disuse and misuse of linguistic services and resultant adverse outcomes, few studies have assessed the practices of pediatric hospitalists related to the use of linguistic services. Our objectives were to evaluate the current practices of communication and linguistic services used by pediatric hospitalists for hospitalized children with NELP and the barriers encountered in their use...

In 2019, a new variant of coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) created a global pandemic that has highlighted and exacerbated health disparities. Educating the general public about COVID-19 is one of the primary mitigation strategies amongst health professionals. English is not the preferred language for an estimated 22% of the United States population making effective mass communication efforts difficult to achieve. This study seeks to understand and compare several topics surrounding COVID-19 health communication and healthcare disparities between individuals with English language preference (ELP) and non-English language preference (NELP) within the United States...

BACKGROUND: Toward the goal of using more livers for transplantation, transplant centers are looking to increase the use of organs from "marginal" donors. Livers from these donors, however, have been shown to be more susceptible to preservation and reperfusion injury. METHODS: Using a porcine model of donation after circulatory death, we studied the use of antibody-mediated CD47 blockade to further improve liver graft function undergoing normothermic machine perfusion...

BACKGROUND: Liver transplantation from donors after cardiac death (DCD) could increase the pool of organs. We previously reported that oxygenated subnormothermic (20°C-25°C) ex vivo liver perfusion (SELP) improved the graft viability in rats. This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of SELP and normothermic (37°C) ex vivo liver perfusion (NELP) after cold storage (CS) in DCD liver grafts. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were used, and grafts were retrieved 30 minutes after cardiac arrest...

For cancer cells to survive and proliferate, they must escape normal immune destruction. One mechanism by which this is accomplished is through immune suppression effected by up-regulation of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO1), a heme enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of tryptophan to N -formylkynurenine. On deformylation, kynurenine and downstream metabolites suppress T cell function. The importance of this immunosuppressive mechanism has spurred intense interest in the development of clinical IDO1 inhibitors...

Viperin (virus inhibitory protein, endoplasmic reticulum-associated, interferon-inducible) is a widely distributed protein that is expressed in response to infection and causes antiviral effects against a broad spectrum of viruses. Viperin is a member of the radical S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM) superfamily of enzymes, which typically employ a 4Fe-4S cluster to reductively cleave SAM to initiate chemistry. Though the specific reaction catalyzed by viperin remains unknown, it has been shown that expression of viperin causes an increase in the fluidity of lipid membranes, which impedes the budding of nascent viral particles from the membrane inhibiting propagation of the infection...
