Mild cognitive impairment is increasingly recognized as a complication of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although currently no disease-modifying treatments for cognitive disorders exist, interest surged in potential neuroprotective effects of newer anti-diabetic drugs. This study investigates the impact of newer anti-diabetic drug classes, dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4i) and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - on cognitive decline in T2D patients on metformin therapy.

- In Nigeria, gastric cancer ranks as the 10th most common and 9th most deadly cancer, but there is limited data available to fully understand it.
- A study evaluated 138 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer over 15 years, finding that most patients presented with significant weight loss and anorexia, and many had advanced disease.
- Most patients received some form of treatment, with nearly half undergoing both chemotherapy and surgery, though over 50% were deceased by the time of follow-up, highlighting the need for improved data quality and timely interventions.

The loss of data stored in chatbots can cause major harm to companies and customers.

It is immensely valuable to perform both qualitative and quantitative site-specific glycosylation analysis of glycopeptide isomers due to their link to several diseases. Achieving isomeric separation of glycopeptides is particularly challenging due to the low abundance of glycopeptides as well as inefficient ionization.
