Background: Indications for Veno-venous (VV) or veno-arterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) after trauma rely on poor evidence. The main aims were to describe the population of trauma patients requiring either VV or VA ECMO and report their clinical management and outcomes.

Methods: An observational multicentre retrospective study was conducted in 17 Level 1 trauma centres in France between January 2010 and December 2021.

Article Synopsis
  • Early calorie-rich diets disrupt circadian rhythms and negatively affect memory in mice, but time-restricted feeding (TRF) can restore these issues.
  • The study used methods like indirect calorimetry and behavioral tasks to analyze metabolic rhythms, memory, and molecular changes after feeding mice a high fat-high sucrose diet followed by TRF.
  • Results showed that TRF improved metabolism and memory independently of body fat levels, linked to thyroid hormone signaling and gene expression changes in the hippocampus.

Background: The number of patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and type 1 diabetes (T1D) is on the rise, partly due to a global increase in new T1D cases among children. Beyond the well-documented microvascular and macrovascular complications, there is now substantial evidence indicating that diabetes also impacts the brain, leading to neuropsychological impairments. The risk of developing neuropsychiatric symptoms is notably higher in childhood due to the ongoing maturation of the brain, which makes it more susceptible to damage.

Article Synopsis
  • Thermophily is a special trait found in some fungi, mostly in three families and a few others, making them able to live in hot environments.
  • Scientists studied many types of fungi and discovered that being able to thrive in heat is a common feature among certain groups of these fungi, but they have fewer genes for things like defense compared to those that live in normal temperatures.
  • The study also found that certain proteins in these fungi are designed to work well at high temperatures, which can be helpful for industries that need special enzymes for their processes.

Trees can play different roles in the regulation of fluxes of methane (CH), a greenhouse gas with a warming potential 83 times greater than that of carbon dioxide. Forest soils have the greatest potential for methane uptake compared to other land uses. In addition to their influence on soil CH fluxes, trees can act directly as a source or sink of CH, by transporting CH produced in the soil and harbouring the key microorganisms involved in CH production and consumption (methanogens and methanotrophs).
