Dissecting the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition Criteria in Advanced Cancer: Reduced Intake vs. Inflammation.

Background & Aims: The Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria have been recommended for the diagnosis of malnutrition. It requires that the patient meets at least one phenotypic criterion and at least one aetiological criterion. For the latter, the patient must either demonstrate reduced food intake or have evidence of systemic inflammation.

Short-Term Magnesium Supplementation Has Modest Detrimental Effects on Cycle Ergometer Exercise Performance and Skeletal Muscle Mitochondria and Negligible Effects on the Gut Microbiota: A Randomized Crossover Clinical Trial.

Although the importance of magnesium for overall health and physiological function is well established, its influence on exercise performance is less clear. The primary study objective was to determine the influence of short-term magnesium supplementation on cycle ergometer exercise performance. The hypothesis was that magnesium would elicit an ergogenic effect.

Semiautomated Production of Cell-Free Biosensors.

Cell-free synthetic biology biosensors have potential as effective diagnostic technologies for the detection of chemical compounds, such as toxins and human health biomarkers. They have several advantages over conventional laboratory-based diagnostic approaches, including the ability to be assembled, freeze-dried, distributed, and then used at the point of need. This makes them an attractive platform for cheap and rapid chemical detection across the globe.

Intraocular Inflammation After Aflibercept Prefilled Syringe and Vial Injections.

In this observational cohort study, incidence of intraocular inflammation following intravitreal injection in the Vestrum Health database was significantly lower with aflibercept 2-mg (EYLEA) prefilled syringes versus vials from 2020 to 2022 (P < 0.0001).
