The Impact of Resistance Training and Diabetes Education on Physical Functioning, Frailty Status, and Glycemia in Older Adults with Short- and Long-Duration Type 2 Diabetes: A Secondary Analysis of the Band-Frail Study.

Background: Diabetes duration is an underappreciated risk factor in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) management that can increase the risk of complications and potentially decrease the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions. However, whether T2DM duration impacts the efficacy of an elastic band resistance training intervention for older adults living with comorbid T2DM and frailty is unclear.

Objective: This analysis aimed to investigate the impact of a 16-week elastic band resistance training and diabetes education intervention on physical functioning, glycemia, and frailty in older adults of different T2DM durations.

Investigation of tritium content in wild plants growing in an area with an underground source of tritium.

Within the framework of the presented work, the results of large-scale studies of the content of TFWT in wild plants growing in an area with an underground source of tritium are presented. Various types of plants were studied: herbaceous, shrubby, woody. The concentration of TFWT in various vegetative organs of the same plants was analyzed separately.

Evidence generation throughout paediatric medicines life cycle: findings from collaborative work between European Medicines Agency (EMA) and EUnetHTA on use of extrapolation.

Drug development for children presents unique challenges and is highly regulated. Novel approaches, such as the use of extrapolation to address, for example, the need to avoid unethical studies, whilst supporting robust evidence generation have been developed in support of benefit/risk considerations by regulatory authorities. This is only one step in the decision-making process towards access, which in Europe also includes health technology assessment (HTA) bodies.

Epigenetic signature of human vitamin D3 and IL-10 conditioned regulatory DCs.

During differentiation of precursor cells into their destination cell type, cell fate decisions are enforced by a broad array of epigenetic modifications, including DNA methylation, which is reflected by the transcriptome. Thus, regulatory dendritic cells (DCregs) acquire specific epigenetic programs and immunomodulatory functions during their differentiation from monocytes. To define the epigenetic signature of human DCregs generated in vitamin D3 (vitD3) and IL-10 compared to immune stimulatory DCs (sDCs), we measured levels of DNA methylation by whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS).
