Summary: The study investigated the caffeine content and phenolic profile of different types of teas and coffees with two successive extractions. Green tea showed high flavanol content in the second extraction, while mate tea's phenolic acid content increased. Black tea had the highest caffeine content in both extractions, and water was the most effective solvent in most cases for extracting these compounds.

Summary: Patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are at higher risk of osteoporosis due to lower bone mineral density. Risk factors are divided into unmodifiable (age, gender, genetic factors) and modifiable (diet, physical activity, stimulants). Compounds in coffee and tea can affect bone metabolism, either protecting or increasing bone resorption. The impact of coffee and tea on inflammatory bowel diseases remains contradictory.

Summary: This article reviews the safety of coffee leaf tea, highlighting caffeine and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) as potentially hazardous substances. The caffeine content is comparable to roasted coffee beans, while the EGCG content is typically low. The article suggests a maximum intake of 1-3 cups per day of coffee leaf tea. The conclusion is that coffee leaf tea is not assumed to be risky for consumers.

Summary: Coffee and tea are two of the most consumed beverages globally, and research shows that moderate consumption can have beneficial effects on metabolic syndrome and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Green tea, in particular, has been associated with improved survival in population studies, similar to the effects of coffee consumption.

Summary: Moderate consumption of coffee and tea is associated with a reduced risk of adult-onset asthma, and moderate intake of caffeine ranging from 160.0 to 305.0 mg/day from coffee and tea may provide protective effects against adult-onset asthma.

Summary: A large prospective cohort study in the United States found an inverse association between pneumonia and influenza deaths and coffee intake. In Japan, where the mortality rate of pneumonia in elderly people is high, a hospital-based case control study investigated the association between coffee and green tea intake and pneumonia among the elderly. The study suggested a preventive association between coffee intake over 2 cups per day and pneumonia in the elderly.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between tea consumption and the risk of incident acute kidney injury (AKI), as well as the effects of coffee consumption, genetic variation in caffeine metabolism, and the use of tea additives. The results showed a reversed J-shaped relation between tea consumption and incident AKI, suggesting that light to moderate tea consumption, especially with milk, can be part of a healthy diet.

Summary: This meta-analysis examined the association between dietary caffeine, different types of coffee and tea consumption, and the risk of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The results showed that higher intake of coffee and decaffeinated coffee was associated with an increased risk of RA, while there was no significant association between caffeinated coffee, tea, or caffeine intake and RA risk.

Summary: This study predicts cancer mortality figures for 2023 in the European Union, its five most populous countries, and the UK, with a focus on lung cancer. The results show that the decline in lung cancer mortality reflects advancements in tobacco control, and further efforts are needed to control overweight and obesity, alcohol consumption, infection, and related neoplasms, as well as improve screening, early diagnosis, and treatments. These efforts may achieve a 35% reduction in cancer mortality in the EU by 2035.

Summary: This study found that gastric cancer mortality rates have been declining globally since 1990, with variations between countries and regions. It is predicted that gastric cancer mortality rates will continue to decline in most countries, except for certain demographics in France, the US, and Canada. The proportion of cardia and noncardia gastric cancer also varies across different regions.

Summary: This study estimated the number of cancers attributable to occupational carcinogens in Italy. By using a counterfactual scenario of no exposure and considering latency, the study calculated the attributable fraction of cancer. The most prevalent occupational carcinogens were found to be UV radiation, diesel exhaust, wood dust, and silica dust. The study highlighted the substantial burden of occupational cancers in Italy and the importance of surveillance of carcinogens in the workplace.

Summary: This study investigates cancer patterns in migrants in Southern Italy using data from the Eastern Sicily Cancer Registry. Migrants have a higher probability of developing cancer, particularly in migrant women. Cervical and lung cancer are more prevalent in migrants, while colorectal cancer is less common. Interventions should be implemented to improve the access of migrants to cancer prevention, early diagnosis, and care, with a focus on HPV vaccination, cervical cancer screening, and tobacco control.

Summary: This study found that dietary betaine, choline, and choline-containing compounds are associated with the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Men who consume phosphocholine and sphingomyelin are more likely to develop CRC, while women who consume betaine have a decreased risk. Therefore, modifying the diet to increase betaine intake and managing the consumption of animal products can help reduce the risk of CRC.

Summary: We examined the impact of lockdown measures in Lombardy on obstetric and perinatal outcomes. Using healthcare databases, we compared births during the two lockdowns with births from corresponding periods in previous years. The proportion of low birth weight and preterm births decreased during the lockdowns, while induction of labor increased. There was no difference in stillbirth rate, but cesarean section was less frequent during the second lockdown.

Summary: The study found that colorectal advanced adenoma is associated with alterations in ileal juice bile acids. The concentrations of hyodeoxycholic acid (HCA) species in ileal juice were significantly higher in advanced adenoma patients compared to controls. The relative abundance of ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) in total bile acids was significantly reduced in cases than controls.
