Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine Exposure and the Risk of Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Observational Studiess
TL;DR: This study confirm an inverse association between caffeine intake and the risk of PD, which can hardly by explained by bias or uncontrolled confounding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Caffeine intake and dementia: systematic review and meta-analysis.
TL;DR: A systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies quantifying the relation between caffeine intake and cognitive decline or dementia found a trend towards a protective effect of caffeine, but the large methodological heterogeneity across a still limited number of epidemiological studies precludes robust and definite statements on this topic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroxyapatite micro- and nanoparticles: Nucleation and growth mechanisms in the presence of citrate species
TL;DR: An attempt to detail the role of citrate species in the ordered aggregation of HAP nuclei leading to the observed peanut and bundlelike microparticles morphology is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
