Nitrogen fertilization of Cayman Blend grass (Urochloa hybrid cv. GP0423 + GP4467) on the chemical composition and fatty acid profile in milk from grazing cows by Isabel Cristina Acosta–Balcazar, Yuridia Bautista–Martínez, Benigno Estrada–Drouaillet, José Felipe Orzuna–Orzuna, Miguel Ruíz–Albarran, Jorge David Guiot–García, Lorenzo Danilo Granados–Rivera

“…In milk, nitrogen fertilization of the grass increased (P≤0.05) the fat content by 31.68% but did not affect (P>0.05) the protein and lactose content or the content of CLA. A positive linear relationship was found (P≤0.05) between the concentration of linoleic acid in grass and the concentration of CLA in milk. …”

Triglyceride-glucose index and overactive bladder syndrome: evidence from the NHANES 2005-2018 by Baitong Chen, Baitong Chen, Baitong Chen, Jiongming Wang, Jiongming Wang, Yueting Huang, Yueting Huang, Nanhui Chen, Nanhui Chen

“…In the fully adjusted model, each unit increase in the TyG index was associated with a 1.18-fold increased risk of OAB (OR = 1.18; 95% CI: 1.11-1.26; p &lt; 0.001) and a 1.32-fold increased risk of OAB for Q4 compared to Q1 at the quartile level (OR = 1.32, 95% CI: 1.17- 1.50, p &lt; 0.001), RCS analysis showed a positive linear association between TyG index and OAB, and subgroup analysis showed that the association between TyG and OAB was more pronounced in individuals younger than 60 years and in women (p for interaction &lt; 0.05).ConclusionThe results of this study suggest that TyG index is positively associated with OAB, and this association was more pronounced in younger age groups and in females.TyG index, as a simple and cost-effective metabolic marker, may provide a potential tool for early screening of OAB, especially in individuals with metabolic abnormalities that have not progressed to significant metabolic diseases.…”
