Does ascorbic acid prevent protein oxidation in livers of senescence marker protein-30/gluconolactonase knockout mice?
These results strongly suggest that AA plays an important role in preventing protein oxidation in vivo, thus enhancing overall health.
Self-critical points on the limitations of results due to lack of adequate data (not) given by EOPYY are initially raised. Then the issue concerning the debate between 'copying' benchmarks and 'a la cart' selectively adopting and adapting best practices from wider experience is discussed, with preference to the latter. The idea of an 'a la cart' choice of international examples is proposed. The 'results' discussing EOPYY's dual function and induced-demand favorable reimbursement system are further critically examined. International experience shows evidence of effective alternatives, such as per capita and pay-for-performance payments for practicing doctors as well as per case reimbursement for health centers under global budget principles.
