Background: Dyspnoea is one of the emergency department's (ED) most common and deadly chief complaints, but frequently misdiagnosed and mistreated. We aimed to design a diagnostic decision support which classifies dyspnoeic ED visits into acute heart failure (AHF), exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (eCOPD), pneumonia and "other diagnoses" by using deep learning and complete, unselected data from an entire regional health care system.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we included all dyspnoeic ED visits of patients ≥ 18 years of age at the two EDs in the region of Halland, Sweden, 07/01/2017-12/31/2019.
Introduction: Type 2 diabetes, characterized by hyperglycemia, is closely linked to obesity and low-grade inflammation. Acute cocoa flavanols (CF) intake has demonstrated benefits in vasoreactivity, cognitive functions, and antioxidant enzyme activity. However, the physiological mechanisms of CF concerning glucose uptake, inflammatory mediators, and their interplay with aerobic exercise remain unclear in populations with metabolic diseases.

Research Design And Methods: Thirty-seven pwT1D (21 adults, 16 adolescents; HbA1c = 7.5 ± 1.
Sustainable food provision for a continuously growing human population is one of the major challenges for the next decades. Cultured meat represents one of the alternatives which is currently extensively explored. Yet, the most appropriate cell type, capable of long-term proliferation and myogenic differentiation, remains to be identified.

This review focuses on a pivotal aspect of the cellular agriculture domain: cells. We summarised information on the various cell types from farm animals currently used for the development of cultured meat, including mesenchymal stromal cells, myoblasts, and pluripotent stem cells.
