Brazil is the major producer of citrus, a low-cost source of hesperidin, which is a polyphenol recognized for its capacity to inhibit AGEs formation. This is the first work to evaluate the effects of a polyphenolic fraction derived from citrus wastes on the antiglycation and on the inhibition properties of digestive enzymes on the possibility to process these wastes in high value-added products. At concentrations of 10, 15 and 20 mg/mL inhibition of AGEs was higher than 60%. The extracts were able to inhibit by 76% the activity of pancreatic lipase and by 98% the activity of α-glucosidase. For the α-amylase the inhibition capacity was lower than 50%. Strong correlation was obtained among anti-glycation with polyphenolic content and antioxidant capacity.The Japanese government suspended proactive recommendation of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination due to several reports of adverse events related to it in 2013. After that, the immunization rate of HPV vaccine quickly declined in Japan. Health science teachers (HSTs) are qualified and licensed teachers in charge of health care and health education for students in Japanese schools. HSTs have not recommended HPV vaccination to female students, since active governmental recommendation for HPV vaccination was halted for 5 y. We conducted a primary survey targeting HSTs (N = 39) and university students taking the HST training course (N = 123). In each group, awareness regarding HPV vaccine and disease burden was evaluated and factors related to and barriers to HPV vaccine recommendation were identified. The primary survey found that many HSTs and university students recognized their insufficient knowledge regarding the HPV vaccine. Based on the primary
