A beverage (330 mL) made with lemon and maqui extracts and sweetened with sucralose was taken by participants, during 60 days. Beverages were made in a semi-industrial process in a pilot plant. Microbiological tests, quality controls and shelf-life assays were performed following legislation on beverages.
Concentrations of lemon and maqui extract are under industrial secret. The sweetener sucralose was added within the ranges established by law as maximums.
The beverage was carried out in the pilot plant of a company (Nutracitrus) with all the safety systems, tested by an external lab (Ecosur), apart from the routine controls themselves.
All ingredients were suitable for consumption and purchased from different companies with their respective certificates and conservation was at 5 º C for a maximum of 7 days, prior to administration to volunteers.

The chronic study consisted on a 60 days consumption of a beverage (330 mL) made with lemon and maqui and added a particular sweetener.

Beverages were provided by manufacturer with codes and no one, up to now, knows the sweetener added on each type.

Patients in the study group were given homeopathic medication (Arnica montana C30 and Bellis perennis C30) .

Patients in the control group were given placebo medication. The placebos and the active medication were indistinguishable in appearance, taste and smell

Seroma

Homeopathic medication (Arnica montana and the Bellis perennis) were given to women in the study group following mastectomy and reconstruction to reduce post operative seroma

The medications were packed in bottles, each containing 5 grams of the preparation, and consecutively numbered. The prefix 'A' indicated Arnica montana, and 'B' Bellis perennis .
Participants were randomly allocated into groups given either homeopathic medication (Arnica montana C30 and Bellis perennis C30) or placebo (alcohol 40% and alcohol 40%) in a 1:1 ratio. . The randomization code was held in confidence and the code was not broken until the data analysis. The same randomization list was used to blind the Arnica montana and the Bellis perennis, creating similar pairs. The placebos and the active medication were indistinguishable in appearance, taste and smell.

Nurse applies the daily-practice questionnaire called "Healthplan guide" to screen and identify people with dental diseases, among those in vulnerable situation, and to sensitize them about the importance of oral hygiene and how to improve it.
After that, the nurse has to state if, from her/his point of view the patient needs dental care or not. Whatever the answer, the nurse makes an appointment to a dental practice, in the 30 following days, and gives it to the patient with a free bus ticket. Randomization is done at that time.
The dentist, blinded of the patient's group, makes a dental exam and says if the patient needs dental care or not.
If care are indicated, they will be organized but outside this trial.

After application of the "Healthplan guide", nurse statement of the need of dental care or not, making of an appointment to the dental practice and gift of a free bus ticket, if the patient is randomized in the experimental group, the nurse completes the evaluation with a mouth inspection in order to count missing, coloured, injured teeth, and evaluate dental plaque, halitosis, inflammatory gums, mucosal injuries, low masticatory surface. At the end of this exam, the nurse has to state again if, from her/his point of view the patient needs dental care or not.
The dentist, blinded of the patient's group, makes a dental exam and says if the patient needs dental care or not.
If care are indicated, they will be organised but outside this trial.

We compared the length of hospital postoperative stay in the 2 groups of the study.

On the day before the surgery and on the second postoperative day blood samples were collected for albumin, pre-albumin, CRP, and α-1-acid glycoprotein (α-1-GA) assays. To assess inflammatory activity the prognostic inflammatory and nutritional index (PINI)(CRP (mg/L) x α-1-GA (mg/L)/ albumin (g/L) x pre-albumin (mg/L) and the CRP/albumin ratio were calculated and used to compare the two groups
