Little is known about the effects of combined micronutrient and sugar consumption on growth and cognition. In the present study, we investigated the effects of micronutrients and sugar, alone and in combination, in a beverage on growth and cognition in schoolchildren. In a 2 × 2 factorial design, children (n 414, 6-11 years) were randomly allocated to consume beverages containing (1) micronutri...

safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) is one of the oilseed crops adaption on a wide range circumstance of iran edaphic, which deficiency of micronutrients cause in its quality and quantity yield. to assign the effect of amount and utility period of micronutrients fertilizer on grain yield, yield components and characters of oil quality of safflower var mexi141 an experiment by factorial base ran...

Micronutrients such as zinc, selenium, iron, copper, beta-carotene, vitamins A, C, and E, and folic acid can influence several components of innate immunity. Select micronutrients play an important role in alteration of oxidant-mediated tissue injury, and phagocytic cells produce reactive oxidants as part of the defense against infectious agents. Thus, adequate micronutrients are required to pr...

Vitamins, zinc and selenium are important micronutrients that play crucial functions at the cellular and molecular level. Immune response of several different cell types can be modulated by these micronutrients. Deficiency in micronutrients has been extensively reported in HIV-1-infected individuals and further correlated with CD4+ T-cell count, HIV-1 plasma viral load, disease progression and ...

The objective of the present review is to examine critically the consequences of interactions that micronutrients undergo with nutrients and non-nutrients (mainly prescribed medicines) in diets and lifestyle factors (smoking, tea and alcohol consumption). In addition, the review describes recent work on interactions between nutrients and genes, the influence of gene polymorphisms on micronutrie...

BACKGROUND Micronutrients play an important role in immune function. To our knowledge, there have been no comprehensive studies on the role of micronutrient supplementation in children with tuberculosis. OBJECTIVE We assessed the effect of micronutrient supplementation in children treated with antituberculosis therapy (ATT). DESIGN A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that u...

In order to study effect of phosphorus fertilizer and micronutrients foliar application on yield sorghum, a field experiment was conducted in at 2011 in Research Farm of Payame Noor University of Zahedan, Iran. This experiment was done as split plot Based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Experiment treatments included: micronutrients foliar application containing ele...

To establish whether there is new evidence to inform changes to WHO 2003 recommendations for micronutrient intake in persons with HIV/AIDS, we conducted a narrative review of the literature published from 2003 to 2010. Although the review focused on new randomized controlled trials of multiple micronutrients in HIV-infected adults, including pregnant and lactating women, we also considered rand...
