Nutrition, Chewing Ability and Quality of Life in Older Adults With Implant Overdentures: A Prospective Clinical Study.

Objectives: To evaluate the changes in nutritional status, chewing ability and oral health-related quality of life in edentulous individuals who have initially been rehabilitated with immediate complete dentures (CD) which are then transformed to implant-supported overdentures (IOD) after a period of osseointegration.

Background: Compared to those with conventional dentures, individuals with IODs exhibit improved patient-reported outcomes, chewing capacity and biting force. While prior research highlights differences in nutritional markers between these groups, there is limited investigation into intra-individual changes in nutritional status, chewing ability and oral health-related quality of life during the transition from CDs to IODs.

Evolving Clinical Features of Diabetic Ketoacidosis: The Impact of SGLT2 Inhibitors.

: The antidiabetic effect of SGLT2 inhibitors (SGLT2-is) is based on their ability to increase glucose excretion through urine by inhibiting the kidney-resident SGLT2 protein. Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EuDKA) is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening adverse effect of these medications, which are notable for their antidiabetic, cardiovascular, and renal protective properties. This study aimed to clarify the impact of SGLT2-is on demographic, clinical, and biochemical characteristics in patients with DKA.

Evaluation of prediabetes patients in terms of metabolic syndrome.

Objective: Prediabetes accompanied by metabolic syndrome accelerates the process leading to diabetes and causes an increase in complications. The current study aimed to investigate the clinical conditions accompanying prediabetes and the effect of the association of metabolic syndrome on clinical outcomes in prediabetics.

Subjects And Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 88 prediabetic individuals between November 2022 and January 2023.

Effects of irisin and exercise on adropin and betatrophin in a new metabolic syndrome model.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a prevalent public health problem. Uric acid (UA) is increased by MetS. We investigated whether administration of UA and 10% fructose (F) would accelerate MetS formation and we also determined the effects of irisin and exercise.

Evaluation of Development of Nonalcoholic Fatty Pancreas Disease After Post-Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiop ancreatography Pancreatitis in Liver Transplant Patients: Computerized Tomography Versus Ultrasound.

Background/aims: Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis (PEP) is the most common serious adverse event in liver transplant patients The average incidence has been reported as 1.3%-15.1% in prospective series.
