Article Synopsis
- The study is looking at how intermittent fasting can help people who are at risk for type 2 diabetes without focusing just on weight loss.
- It involves adults who are overweight or prediabetic, and they will fast for 24 hours once a week for 12 weeks.
- The researchers will check changes in fat composition, insulin sensitivity, and bone health to see if fasting has other health benefits.
Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the characteristics and management implications of thyroid nodules with PTEN mutations, focusing on data from fine-needle aspiration tests conducted between November 2017 and July 2020.
- - Out of 49 nodules from 48 patients, most were benign lesions like follicular adenomas, with only one instance of a non-aggressive encapsulated follicular variant papillary thyroid carcinoma identified.
- - The findings suggest that isolated somatic PTEN mutations indicate primarily benign nodules that don't rapidly grow, with about 8% of patients possibly having PTEN hamartoma syndrome or Cowden syndrome, particularly in younger patients with multiple nodules.
SARS-CoV-2 has been implicated in the development of reactive arthritis (ReA) days to weeks following exposure or infection. We present a case of ReA with enthesitis and subsequent silent thyroiditis in a patient following infection with SARS-CoV-2, along with a review of the published cases of SARS-CoV-2-related ReA.
