Is Higher α-Linolenic Acid Content Preferable? Assessing Digestive Fate of Flaxseed Oil in In Vitro Digestion Models of Infants, Adults and the Elderly

α-Linolenic acid (ALA) is an essential omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid, yet how dietary ALA enrichment interacts with population-specific gastrointestinal physiology to dictate bioaccessibility and lipid peroxidation remains insufficiently understood. This study systematically...

Severe skeletal and renal complications in SLC4A1-related distal renal tubular acidosis following prolonged treatment interruption: a case report highlighting transition-related vulnerability

Abstract Background SLC4A1-related distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA), caused by dysfunction of the anion exchanger 1 (AE1), is typically associated with a relatively mild and late-onset phenotype. However, outcomes may vary substantially, particularly in the setting of delayed...
