Abstract

Olive wood is used in a niche economic context but is attracting growing interest. In this study, the wood anatomy of Olea europaea L. belonging to two cultivars cultivated in the Plain of Gioia Tauro in Calabria (RC) is qualitatively described. Wood samples were obtained along the diameter of wood slices to investigate any anatomical differences between the inner and outer zones of the stem. The microscopic slides were investigated using an optical microscope. The anatomical characteristics observed were compared with existing literature data. The two cultivars show parenchyma rays arranged not only in one to two rows (typical of this species), but also in three rows. Furthermore, in both cultivars, the presence of starch deposits in procumbent parenchyma cells was observed. The Ottobratica cultivar seems to have more starch than the Sinopolese one, but given the high variability of olive wood, further quantitative analysis is needed to determine whether these differences are statistically valid and due to the different cultivars. This work can contribute to a better understanding of the Olea europaea L. species and to a better technical valorisation of its wood. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: The gut microbiota constitutes a complex microorganism community that harbors bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa, and archaea. The human gut bacterial microbiota has been extensively proven to participate in human metabolism, immunity, and nutrient absorption. Its imbalance, namely "dysbiosis", has been linked to disordered metabolism. Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is one of the features of deranged human metabolism and is the leading cause of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Thus, there is a pathophysiological link between gut dysbiosis and MASLD. Aims and Methods: We aimed to review the literature data on the composition of the human bacterial gut microbiota and its dysbiosis in MASLD and describe the concept of the "gut–liver axis". Moreover, we reviewed the approaches for gut microbiota modulation in MASLD treatment. Results: There is consolidated evidence of particular gut dysbiosis associated with MASLD and its stages. The model explaining the relationship between gut microbiota and the liver has a bidirectional organization, explaining the physiopathology of MASLD. Oxidative stress is one of the keystones in the pathophysiology of MASLD and fibrosis generation. There is promising and consolidated evidence for the efficacy of pre- and probiotics in reversing gut dysbiosis in MASLD patients, with therapeutic effects. Few yet encouraging data on fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in MASLD are available in the literature. Conclusions: The gut dysbiosis characteristic of MASLD is a key target in its reversal and treatment via diet, pre/probiotics, and FMT treatment. Oxidative stress modulation remains a promising target for MASLD treatment, prevention, and reversal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Drugs with anticholinergic properties are frequently prescribed to patients with cognitive impairment. The cholinergic system plays an important role in the learning process, memory, but also in the regulation of emotions. The aim of this research is to investigate a possible correlation between the use of anticholinergic drugs and the risk of developing more severe behavioral and psychological symptoms (BPSD). Method: Patients with a diagnosis of subjective cognitive impairment, MCI or dementia were recruited from the Geriatric Unit of the AOU Federico II of Naples. Screening tests for cognitive impairment (MMSE, ACE‐R) and functional status (ADL, IADL) were performed. BPSD were evaluated with the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI). The anticholinergic burden was calculated using the ACB calculator. We compared patients at low risk of anticholinergic adverse effects (ACB<3) versus patients at high risk (ACB≥3). Chi‐square test and Mann‐Whitney test were used to compare the two groups. A multiple linear regression was performed to identify factors associated with a higher NPI score. A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Result: A total of 173 patients (mean age 74±7, 74 men) were included in the study; 132 patients with ACB<3 (low risk) versus 41 patients with ACB ≥3 (high risk) were compared. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of demographics (age, sex) and anamnestic variables (education, marital status, family history of dementia, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, dyslipidemia, atrial fibrillation, coronary heart disease, use of alcohol and polypharmacy). Significantly higher NPI scores were found in patients with ACB≥3 (median scores 48.0 vs 15.5, p = 0.00). Furthermore, patients with ACB≥3 showed lower MMSE (median scores 19.0 vs 24.5, p = 0.00) and more IADLs lost. In the multivariate regression analysis, after adjusting for age, sex, polypharmacy and IADLs lost, only the MMSE scores and the ACB score were independent predictors of the NPI score. Conclusion: In conclusion, the anticholinergic burden might play a role as a risk factor for developing more severe BPSD in patients with subjective cognitive impairment, MCI and dementia, independently of the degree of cognitive impairment.
