The bael fruit, with its diverse phytochemical profile, exhibits potential health benefits ranging from radioprotection and antibacterial properties to antioxidant and hepatoprotective effects. Additionally, this review highlights the limited preclinical studies on AMs' efficacy in treating neurological disorders, emphasizing the need for more clinical trials to validate its potency and safety. Specifically, the effects and mechanisms of AM extract in addressing Alzheimer's disease, anxiety, depression, epilepsy and Parkinson's disease are explored. In conclusion, AM emerges as a plant of considerable nutritional and pharmacological value, with the potential to contribute significantly to the treatment of neurological disorders. Despite its promising attributes, the limited preclinical studies necessitate further clinical trials to confirm its efficacy. This review consolidates relevant studies, offering insights into AMs' ethnobotany, chemical constituents, pharmacological properties and potential application in neurological disorders.

It is a risk factor for adult obesity and noncommunicable diseases. If no action is taken, it is estimated that 208 million boys and 175 million girls aged 5-19 years will be living with obesity by 2035. This study aimed to determine the physical activity status and prevalence of overnutrition among school-going children aged 8-11 years and further explored the associations. <b>Methods:</b> A cross-sectional study design was used among school-going children 8-11 years of age in Thika town, Kiambu County, Kenya. A total of 281 children were sampled. The physical activity levels were assessed using the validated physical activity questionnaire for older children. The BMI for age Z-scores (BAZ) was calculated based on weight and height measurements, and children with a BAZ score of +1 standard deviation were considered to have overnutrition. Data were analyzed using univariate, bivariate, and multivariate techniques. Logistic regression was employed to determine associations between the independent variables and the primary outcome. <b>Results:</b> The prevalence of overnutrition among the children was 11%. On the other hand, 22.4% of the children were underweight. Most of the children (86.5%) attended PE classes. More than half (54.8%) of the children were physically active.

The same population is also undernourished, thus demonstrating the double burden of malnutrition. Almost half of the children were physically inactive. An integrated approach to early detection, prevention, and management of malnutrition in children aged 5-19 years is needed.

Adults with HIV-positive (aged ≥ 18 years) who were on ART were included. Systematic random sampling was used to select 294 HIV-positive adults who attended regular follow-up at the ART clinic. Descriptive analysis was conducted and reported in frequency and percentage. Both bivariable and multivariable analyses were computed. Variables with <i>p</i> < 0.25 in bivariable analysis were inserted into a multivariable logistic regression model to control possible confounders. The <i>p</i> value < 0.05 at a 95% confidence interval was considered as statistically significant. <b>Results:</b> The age of the HIV-infected individuals enrolled ranged from 18 to 67 years with the mean age of 39.08 (SD = ±11.5) years. DM was detected in 21 (7.14%; 95% CI: 4.1-10.2) patients on medication whereas fasting plasma glucose between 111-125 mg/dL was 39 (13.3%; 95% CI: 9.5-17.3). The maximum (12.6%) of DM patients were aged 45 years and above. In the multivariable analysis, hypertension (AOR = 3.4, 95% CI: 1.1-10.8), elevated total cholesterol (AOR = 4.3, 95% CI: 1.2-15.6), aged 45 years and above (AOR = 3.9, 95% CI: 1.15-13.6), and duration of HIV (AOR = 4.7, 95% CI: 1.3-16.9) were significantly associated with DM. <b>Conclusions:</b> In this study, the magnitude of DM among HIV-infected adults on ART follow-up was higher than the prevalence of DM in general populations. Older age, hypertension, increased total cholesterol, and duration of HIV were associated with a higher prevalence of DM. It is better for care providers assigned at ART clinics to detect DM, particularly after initiation of ART routinely, which may help to provide integrated care for comorbid patients.</p>","PeriodicalId":16587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":"2025 ","pages":"7001308"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12045694/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144030315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study used random effects to summarize the relative risks (RRs) 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of GDM risk and standardized mean differences. This study investigated the association of ferritin exposure with GDM combined with dose-response analysis and explored both linear and nonlinear trends. <b>Results:</b> This meta-analysis selected 30 studies with serum ferritin (SF), 18 studies with serum iron (SI), 4 studies with serum transferrin receptor (sTfR), 5 studies with total iron binding capacity (TIBC), and 4 studies with transferrin (TRF). The summarized RRs comparing persons with the highest concentration categories of SF with the lowest concentration categories of SF with an unadjusted odds ratio were 2.05 (1.67-2.53; <i>I</i> <sup>2</sup> = 62.8%, <i>p</i> < 0.001, <i>z</i> = 6.76, <i>p</i> < 0.001) and with an adjusted odds ratio were 1.82 (1.54-2.14; <i>I</i> <sup>2</sup> = 12.9%, <i>p</i>=0.312, <i>z</i> = 7.21, <i>p</i> < 0.001). Linear dose-response showed that an increase in SF of 5 μg/L increased the risk of GDM by 2.66% (1.026 [95% CI: 1.017, 1.036], <i>n</i> = 5). The nonlinear dose-response relationship also indicates that the increased SF is consistently associated with an increasing risk of GDM. <b>Conclusion:</b> High ferritin, high iron levels, and low TIBC are associated with an increased risk of GDM.</p>","PeriodicalId":16587,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nutrition and Metabolism","volume":"2025 ","pages":"1772306"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12045692/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143987819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
