Observations made with quetiapine (QUET) in this case give clues for some aspects of its use for patients with bipolar disorder. Weight gain (11 kg; 16.6% increase in 21 weeks) and improvement in manic symptoms occurred after QUET add-on to lithium (Li). Patient's mood improved after QUET add-on without causing extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), while QUET was discontinued due to weight gain. Short-term QUET add-on to Li may help mood stabilization in bipolar I disorder. Weight changes must be observed carefully.

Background: About two-thirds of those with Alzheimer's disease (AD) are women, most of whom are post-menopausal. Menopause accelerates the risk for dementia by increasing the risk for metabolic, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular diseases. Mid-life metabolic disease (e.

Background: Excessive dietary fat is not only a risk factor for metabolic disorders but also for premature cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease. Recent findings from our study revealed that even a few days of a high-fat diet (HFD) are sufficient to disrupt hippocampal bioenergetics, activate microglia, and induce cognitive decline in mice. We hypothesize that microglia, rather than merely responding to diet-induced damage, play a critical role in disrupting synaptic homeostasis.

Objective: The study objective was to evaluate changes in abdominal adipose tissue and ectopic fat during pregnancy and their associations with gestational weight gain (GWG) in women with overweight/obesity.
Methods: This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial. Magnetic resonance scans were performed during gestational week (GW) 15, GW 32, and around birth to measure abdominal subcutaneous (SAT) and visceral (VAT) adipose tissues, liver fat, and muscle fat.

The principal constituent of liquorice root () is glycyrrhizin, a triterpene saponin that is approximately many times sweeter than sucrose, the main active component. This study aimed to investigate the dietary liquorice root powder (LRP) on production performance, serum biochemical, gut health and carcass characteristics of Kadaknath (KN) birds as replacement of antibiotic growth promoter. Day-old Kadaknath chicks (n = 240) with uniform body weight were selected randomly and divided into six different treatments, each one with five replicates and eight birds per replicate, and raised in battery brooder cages for 15 weeks.
