Differences in Perceived Versus Actual Sensory Perception in Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder.
Int J Eat Disord
January 2025
Eating Disorders Clinical and Research Program, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Background: Individuals with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) self-report heightened sensitivity to taste and smell, but neither phenomenon has been systematically explored in the laboratory. We hypothesized that, compared to healthy controls (HC, n = 34), children, adolescents, and adults with full/subthreshold ARFID (n = 100; ages 9 to 23 years) would self-report heightened response to taste/smell stimuli and exhibit stronger bitter taste perception and heightened smell perception in performance-based tasks, and these differences would be especially prominent in those with the ARFID-sensory sensitivity presentation.
Method: We measured self-reported sensitivity to taste/smell with the adolescent/adult sensory profile (AASP).
Characterization and interactions between piperine and ezetimibe in their Anti-hyperlipidemic efficacy using Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics.

Department of Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology, Kampala International University, Western Campus, P.O. Box 71, Ishaka - Bushenyi, Uganda.
Background: Piperine, a secondary metabolite, affects the antihyperlipidemic effect of Ezetimibe (EZ). Hyperlipidemia is one of the independent risk factors for cardiovascular disorders such as atherosclerosis. Antihyperlipidemic drugs are essential for reducing cardiovascular events and patient mortality.

Article Synopsis
- A 60-year-old woman with metastatic follicular thyroid carcinoma experienced thyrotoxicosis and heart failure symptoms after her total thyroidectomy.
- The diagnosis revealed functional metastatic FTC along with thyrotoxicosis, prompting the cessation of levothyroxine and the initiation of propylthiouracil (PTU) and serial radioiodine treatments.
- After 4.5 years since her diagnosis, despite the high disease burden, she has maintained a good functional status.
A comparative study on the clinical efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of methimazole and propylthiouracil in managing pregnancy complicated with hyperthyroidism.

Gynecology and obstetrics, Taizhou Women and Children's Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, TaiZhou, 318000, China.
The objective of the study was to compare the clinical efficacy and pregnancy outcomes of methimazole and propylthiouracil in managing hyperthyroidism during pregnancy. This retrospective analysis included 100 pregnant women with hyperthyroidism, who were divided into two groups: the methimazole group (Group A) and the propylthiouracil group (Group B). Indicators such as thyroid function, liver function, pregnancy outcomes, and newborn health were closely monitored.

Background: Propylthiouracil is an antithyroid medication that is associated with ANCA positivity, often in the absence of clinically overt vasculitis. Propylthiouracil-induced ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV) is characterized by multiple antigenicity and presents similarly to other forms of drug-induced vasculitis.
Case Presentation: We report a case of a 49-year-old woman who developed propylthiouracil-induced AAV after 31 years of intermittent therapy.
