Even if boron is not yet recognized as an essential element for the human body, its insufficient intake is considered harmful, especially for the osteoarticular system. A daily intake of at least 3 mg of boron can fortify bone mass and prevent the onset of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. This research aims to assess the morbidity caused by rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory polyarthropathies in the population from regions with different boron concentrations in deep drinking water of the Republic of Moldova.

Effective communication techniques within the pharmaceutical system enhance the pharmacist's image as a medication expert. Emphasizing these communication principles helps pharmacists create a favorable environment during counseling session with elderly patients, addressing their specific needs and expectations.
As part of the interproximal assembly, the interdental contact is a morphofunctional component that contributes to the stabilization of teeth, maintaining the integrity of the dental arch, protecting the papilla, and preventing food impaction. The aim of the study is to radiologically evaluate the proximal morphology of restored surfaces on lateral teeth and the positioning of the interdental contact
Domestic violence is one of the most widespread human rights violations in the world. The health sector plays a vital role in preventing domestic violence, helping to identify abuse early, providing victims with the necessary treatment, and referring them to appropriate care. The paper aims to explore the level of knowledge and perceptions in the field of domestic violence among current and future physicians in the Republic of Moldova, in order to assess their educational needs
Thrombosis is a frequently underdiagnosed condition associated with high mortality in neglected cases. Many factors, including geoheliophysical and biochemical ones, are responsible for thrombosis modulation. Routine investigations may sometimes be inconsistent and, thus, unreliable in a clinical setting.
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a heterogeneous group of malignant lymphoid tumors. Hemostasis disorders in non-Hodgkin lymphoma are often asymptomatic but can develop into severe complications. The risk of venous thromboembolism increases according to the totality of risk factors assessed directly in each individual patient, based on age, gender, comorbidities, performance status, and both congenital and acquired thrombophilia
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) represent a group of rare diseases with multisystem involvement and exponential expansion, characterized by defects in the glycosylation process, which is essential for the proper functioning of proteins and lipids. These often manifest under the guise of other pathologies. The objective of the study was to diagnose CDG using Isoelectric Focusing of Transferrin (IEFT) in the Republic of Moldova and to identify diseases that mimic CDG.
Carotenoids and chlorophylls are plant pigments that play a vital role in plant life, participating in the process of photosynthesis and in the synthesis of growth regulators, stress signalers and fungicide attack agents. Research from the last decades has shown that, widely used as nutrients, chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments have beneficial effects on the human body. They exert antioxidant, energizing, detoxifying, anti-inflammatory properties, and can be applied in the prevention and treatment of 21st century diseases (cancer, cardiovascular diseases, low immunity), which are related to numerous causal factors (excessive chemicalization of the food industry, progressive climate change and environmental pollution), which reflects on the quality of human health.
In the context of increasing global consumption of bottled water, assessing its chemical composition and impact on public health becomes essential. Although perceived as a safe alternative, bottled water exhibits variability in its chemical composition, and advanced filtration methods can remove essential minerals. Consumers opt for bottled water due to its taste and convenience, yet awareness of associated risks remains limited. This study proposes the development and validation of a questionnaire to evaluate public perceptions of bottled water
The irrational use of antibiotics is one of the main factors contributing to the accelerated development of antimicrobial resistance worldwide. Despite the regulations established to control the procurement of antimicrobial drugs, the rate of self-prescribing and self-treatment with antimicrobials remains very high in most countries. To plan further measures to combat this resistance, a thorough understanding of the current reasons behind this behavior is required. The aim of the study is to explore the general public's knowledge, attitudes, and behavior regarding antibiotic consumption.
