概括
在儿童中使用非糖甜味剂 (NSS) 是一个有争议的问题,长期健康风险尚不清楚. 需要更多的研究来制定对儿童的安全指南.
科学领域:
- 儿科营养和公共卫生
- 代谢健康和内分泌学
背景情况:
- 儿童肥胖和2型糖尿病的增长率导致非糖甜味剂 (NSS) 作为糖替代品的使用增加.
- 儿童群体中NSS消费的长期健康影响尚未得到充分证实,这促使人们呼吁采取预防措施.
研究的目的:
- 批判性地审查有关NSS对儿童健康影响的现有知识.
- 确定关键的研究差距,并质疑NSS在儿科健康中的使用的更广泛背景.
- 倡导基于证据的指导方针和关于儿童NSS消费的全球共识.
主要方法:
- 这是一篇透视性的文章,涉及到当前科学文献和监管格局的批判性审查和综合.
- 对不同年龄组和健康状况的儿童的NSS安全性和有效性的现有证据的分析.
- 审查与NSS相关的当前全球监管措施和政策不一致性.
主要成果:
- 存在共识,NSS不建议3岁以下的儿童使用,并强烈劝阻5岁以下的儿童使用.
- 关于NSS对5岁以上超重,肥胖或糖尿病儿童的益处和风险仍然存在重大不确定性.
- 目前的监管措施 (标签,学校政策,税收) 是分散的,反映出缺乏科学共识.
结论:
- 迫切需要进行强有力的长期研究,以阐明NSS暴露对儿童的影响.
- 一个统一的全球协议和基于证据的指导方针对于保护有关NSS的儿童健康至关重要.
- 目前的辩论强调了平衡降糖策略与儿科中潜在的NSS风险的复杂性.

Sugars as Energy Storage Molecules
9.7K
Sugar (a simple carbohydrate) metabolism (chemical reactions) is a classic example of the many cellular processes that use and produce energy. Living things consume sugar as a major energy source because sugar molecules have considerable energy stored within their bonds. Consumed carbohydrates have their origins in photosynthesizing organisms like plants. During photosynthesis, plants use the energy of sunlight to convert carbon dioxide gas into sugar molecules, like glucose. Because this...

Glucose Transporters
27.1K
Glucose transporters facilitate the transport of glucose across the cell membrane. In addition to glucose, some glucose transporters can also aid the movement of other hexoses such as fructose, mannose, and galactose.
Facilitated diffusion-glucose transporters (GLUTs) are encoded by the solute-linked carrier (SLC) family 2, subfamily A gene family, or SLC2A. The 14 GLUT protein members are distributed into three classes:

The Physiology of Taste
7.1K
The perception of a salty flavor is facilitated by sodium ions within the oral salivary fluid. Upon consumption of a salty substance, salt crystals disassemble, leading to the liberation of its constituents—Na+ and Cl- ions. These ions subsequently dissolve into the salivary fluid present in the oral cavity. The external environment of the gustatory cells experiences an elevation in Na+ concentration, thereby establishing a potent concentration gradient. This gradient propels the...

Taste Buds and Receptors
4.5K
Gustation, or the sense of taste, is intrinsically linked to the anatomical structures located on the tongue. This organ's surface, along with the entirety of the oral cavity, is adorned with stratified squamous epithelium. Evident on the tongue are elevated structures known as papillae (singular = papilla), which house the mechanisms for the transduction of gustatory stimuli. Four distinct types of papillae exist, each identified by their unique morphological attributes: the circumvallate,...

Oral Hypoglycemic Agents: Sulfonylureas
728
Sulfonylureas are oral hypoglycemic agents utilized in treating type 2 diabetes. They are characterized by their unique sulfonylurea chemical structure. The family of sulfonylureas is divided into generations. First-generation sulfonylureas, including tolbutamide (Orinase), chlorpropamide (Diabinese), and tolazamide (Tolinase), trigger insulin release from pancreatic β cells and enhance peripheral tissues' insulin sensitivity. The second-generation members, such as glipizide...

Stimulants
809
Stimulants are substances that enhance neural activity and elevate dopamine levels in the brain, leading to their highly addictive nature. These drugs include cocaine, amphetamines, MDMA, caffeine, and nicotine, each with distinct mechanisms of action and varied health implications.
Cocaine can be administered via snorting, injection, or smoking. It primarily functions by blocking the reuptake of dopamine, resulting in a euphoric high characterized by an intense sensation of happiness and...
