Fecal microbiota transplantation as a potential therapeutic approach to improve impaired glucose tolerance via gut microbiota modulation in rat model.

Objectives: To investigate the impact of diet-induced gut microbiota alterations on type 2 diabetes and assess the therapeutic potential of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) in restoring a balanced gut microenvironment.

Methods: To induce type 2 diabetes, rats were fed a high-sugar high-fat diet (HSFD) for 90 days. After diabetes induction, animals were divided into an HSFD control group, a metformin group (100 mg/kg), and an FMT group (100 mg/kg), receiving treatment for an additional 90 days.

Association Between Low Testosterone and Perioperative Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Transurethral Prostate Surgery.

Introduction Low testosterone (T) is linked with frailty, which predicts poor postoperative recovery across many surgical procedures. Therefore, low T may impact perioperative outcomes for surgical patients. We sought to characterize the association between low T, frailty, and perioperative outcomes in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) and laser photovaporization of the prostate (PVP).

Serum C-peptide as a Predictor of Coronary Artery Disease in Middle-Aged Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Cross-Sectional Analytical Study.

Introduction Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a major public health problem. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality due to diabetes. A subset of these patients develops this complication relatively early.

Clinical Profiles and Survival Outcomes of Patients With Relapsed Ovarian Cancer: A Single-Center Study.

Background Ovarian cancer is the third most prevalent form of cancer among women in India. The majority of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage. Many women with late-stage ovarian cancer experience a recurrence and need subsequent treatment, even after initial therapy.

Sleep duration at night affects daytime wake EEG spectra.

Background: Sleep deprivation leads to decreased performance, alertness and degradation in the health status of a person. Often the person remains unaware of the reduced alertness and may end up taking inaccurate decisions. There was a need to study the sleep duration of college goers and to study the effect of total night-time sleep duration on daytime Electroencephalogram (EEG) characteristics.
