The clinical presentation of COVID-19-related illness ranges from asymptomatic to mild respiratory symptoms resembling influenza infection to acute symptoms including pneumonia requiring hospitalization and admission to the intensive care unit. COVID-19 starts in the upper airways and lungs, but in severe cases can also affect the heart, blood vessels, brain, liver, kidneys, and intestines. ...
Diamine oxidase (DAO) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes diamine in mucosal or ciliated epithelial cells of the mammalian small intestine. It protects the intestinal mucosa by regulating intracellular ion homeostasis, influencing conduction pathways, and promoting cellular repair. Serum DAO is elevated in small intestinal mucosal barrier failure or in intestinal mucosal cell necrosis; ...
Several improvements support the hypothesis that dynamic standing using the Innowalk is effective as an add-on to standard therapy in the treatment of children and young people with severe motor impairments. The study included 46 patients where 50% were diagnosed with cerebral palsy and 50% with diverse syndromes. The results show improvements on: Passive assisted motion (79%) Stimulation ...

Managing their disease and helping your child lead a better life becomes your top priority. For any parent, the first step in supporting your child is to better understand their disease and the ...
When we talk about intestinal bacteria or dietary fiber, we often hear about "short-chain fatty acids". So what exactly are short-chain fatty acids? Based on the number of carbon atoms in the carbon chain, fatty acids with less than 6 carbon atoms are commonly referred to as short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), those with 6 to 12 carbon atoms are called medium-chain fatty acids, and those with 12 or ...
Both current in vitro and in vivo models used in the development of candidate therapies for the treatment of intestinal diseases have severe limitations. RepliGut®, an in vitro human intestinal epithelial stem cell model, addresses many of these issues and has significant potential to reduce the time and cost of drug development. This model may even help to identify optimal therapies for ...
Liver cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the third leading cause of cancer deaths. A healthy diet and lifestyle are the key to preventing various diseases. In recent years, probiotics, as part of a healthy diet, have received increasing attention for their role in cancer prevention and treatment, including liver cancer.

Hydrogen molecule is the smallest molecule in nature. It is extremely penetrating and extremely volatile. It can freely enter and exit the body cells, remove aging and toxic free radicals. After drinking, it enters human body tissues and diffuses to act on all organ line particles and nucleus. Absorbed by the body. Realize the balance of the environment in the body and initiate the mechanism of ...
