Article Synopsis
  • * Denosumab is an anti-osteoporotic drug that reduces bone loss and may also improve aspects of sarcopenia, showing promise as a treatment for both conditions.
  • * Current research on Denosumab's effectiveness for sarcopenia, particularly in China, is limited, highlighting the need for further studies to better understand its mechanisms and impacts.

Article Synopsis
  • * Results indicated that severe OSAS significantly increases the risk of hypertension and that higher TyG-BMI levels correlate with an elevated risk of hypertension, especially in the highest quartile.
  • * TyG-BMI was found to mediate 41.3% of the association between OSAS and hypertension, highlighting its importance for evaluating hypertension risk in OSAS patients.

Background: Emerging evidence suggests that systemic inflammatory and nutritional biomarkers, along with derived indices, could serve as predictors for sarcopenia in cancer population. This study aimed to compare these predictors, focusing on the nutritional risk index (NRI) and evaluate its diagnostic value, for sarcopenic patients without cancer.

Methods: This cross-sectional retrospective study included 1674 participants.

The transition toward renewable energy sources requires low-cost, efficient, and durable electrocatalysts for green H production. Herein, an easy and highly scalable method to prepare MoS nanoparticles embedded in 3D partially reduced (pr) graphene oxide (GO) aerogel microspheres (MoS /prGOAMs) with controlled morphology and composition is described. Given their peculiar center-diverging mesoporous structure, which allows easy access to the active sites and optimal mass transport, and their efficient electron transfer facilitated by the intimate contact between the MoS and the 3D connected highly conductive pr-GO sheets, these materials exhibit a remarkable electrocatalytic activity in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).
