This study investigated the oxidative degradation of lipids in soybean oil used for frying French fries (SOFFF) and chicken breast meat (SOFCBM) using integrated volatolomics and oxidative lipidomics. Water in the food matrix promotes triglyceride hydrolysis. The rate of lipid hydrolysis was higher in SOFCBM, whereas the rate of lipid oxidation was higher in SOFFF.

Background/purpose: Early detection of severe dengue (SD) and appropriate management are crucial in reducing the case fatality rate. The objective of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics of SD and identify independent risk factors associated with mortality among SD patients.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at two medical center hospitals between 2002 and 2019, involving patients aged ≧18 years with laboratory-confirmed SD.

The testing and modeling of semiconductor devices are the foundation of circuit design. The issue of high-power device testing urgently needs to be solved as the power level of the devices under test (DUTs) increases. This work proposes advanced measurement methods based on three aspects of "measuring capability, security, and stability" with a focus on the features of high output power, easy self-oscillation in mismatch tests, and safety risk in the measurement system of high-power transistors.

Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors represent a novel class of hypoglycemic drugs that have emerged in recent years. These inhibitors function primarily by blocking the reabsorption of glucose in the kidneys, specifically targeting the SGLT2 proteins in the proximal convoluted tubules. This inhibition results in the reduction of blood glucose levels through increased glucose excretion in the urine.

Background: Recent research indicates that the intestinal microbial community, known as the gut microbiota, may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). To understand this relationship, this study used a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to explore and analyze the currently little-known connection between gut microbiota and NAFLD, as well as new findings and possible future pathways in this field.

Aim: To provide an in-depth analysis of the current focus issues and research developments on the interaction between gut microbiota and NAFLD.
