DOI: 10.1002/ejhf.2176
Abstract: Iron deficiency (ID), as defined by the Ferric Iron in Heart Failure (FERRIC-HF) criteria,1–3 is now established as an important therapeutic target in patients with heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). It is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cpf.12739
Abstract: Women exhibit an attenuated exercise pressor reflex (EPR) when compared to men. The influence of sex‐specific mechanisms related to the EPR and performance fatigability remain to be fully elucidated. The purpose was to determine the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1011129
Abstract: Parasitic roundworms (nematodes) have lost genes involved in the de novo biosynthesis of haem, but have evolved the capacity to acquire and utilise exogenous haem from host animals. However, very little is known about the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1074637
Abstract: Although iron is an essential nutrient for humans, as well as for almost all other organisms, it is poorly absorbed (~15%) from the diet such that most passes through the upper gut into the large… read more here.
