Long-term ketogenic diet causes hyperlipidemia, liver dysfunction, and glucose intolerance from impaired insulin trafficking and secretion in mice.

A ketogenic diet (KD) is a very low-carbohydrate, very high-fat diet proposed to treat obesity and type 2 diabetes. While KD grows in popularity, its effects on metabolic health are understudied. Here we show that, in male and female mice, while KD protects against weight gain and induces weight loss, over long-term, mice develop hyperlipidemia, hepatic steatosis, and severe glucose intolerance.

Early Seizure Prophylaxis in Mild and Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Importance: Guidelines recommend seizure prophylaxis for early posttraumatic seizures (PTS) after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Use of antiseizure medications for early seizure prophylaxis after mild or moderate TBI remains controversial.

Objective: To determine the association between seizure prophylaxis and risk reduction for early PTS in mild and moderate TBI.

In-situ growth of MOF-derived CoS@MoS heterostructured electrocatalyst for the detection of furazolidone.

The over-exploitation of antibiotics in food and farming industries ruined the environmental and human health. Consequently, electrochemical sensors offer significant advantages in monitoring these compounds with high accuracy. Herein, MOF-derived hollow CoS@MoS (CS@MS) heterostructure has been prepared hydrothermally and applied to fabricate an electrochemical sensor to monitor nitrofuran class antibiotic drug.

Cimetidine Attenuates Therapeutic Effect of Anti-PD-1 and Anti-PD-L1 and Modulates Tumor Microenvironment in Colon Cancer.

Histamine modulates immunity by binding to histamine receptor 2 (H2R). Cimetidine, an H2R antagonist that inhibits gastric acid secretion and treats gastrointestinal ulcers, interferes with histamine-mediated immunomodulation and may have anticancer activity. This study examined cimetidine's effect on the anticancer effect of anti-PD-L1 in colon cancer.
