A screening template for knowledge synthesis: the IED-uOttawa algorithm

When conducting a knowledge synthesis, the screening of studies appears to be the critical task and is the most time-consuming segment and human resources. The development of the IED-uOttawa was the result of a hands-on natural experience using several knowledge synthesis project...

Postprandial Triglyceride Excursions and the Potential Effect of Menstrual Cycle Phases: A Narrative Review of Human Physiology with Clinician and Patient Perspectives

Postprandial lipemia, the transient rise in circulating triglyceride-rich lipoproteins after consuming a meal, plays a significant role in cardiometabolic disease risk beyond the contribution of fasting lipid concentrations. While pharmaceutical therapies have been highly effecti...

Resynchronisation of the Biological Clock Using Exposure to Low Oxygen Levels in Humans: An Exploratory Study

Exposure to reduced oxygen levels occurs in several real-world contexts, such as during air travel or altitude exposure, and emerging evidence suggests that hypoxia may interact with molecular pathways involved in circadian regulation. This exploratory study investigated the effe...
