Objective: Calorie restriction and exercise are commonly used first interventions to prevent the progression of prediabetes and alleviate the symptoms of type 2 diabetes. Our study was designed to determine the effect of the energy deficit caused by long-term (12-week) calorie restriction and exercise programs on appetite responses in obese individuals with prediabetes and type 2 diabetes.
Methods: Calorie restriction and exercise programs appropriate for age, gender, and work environment were applied to 22 individuals with prediabetes and 22 with type 2 diabetes participating in the study for a period of 12 weeks.

Background: In people with HIV (PWH) who are virally suppressed (VS) on antiretroviral therapy (ART), abdominal obesity (AO) is linked to neurocognitive impairment (NCI), potentially due to visceral adiposity, inflammation, and reduced insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Tesamorelin, a growth hormone-releasing hormone, reduces AO and increases IGF-1, suggesting it might mitigate NCI in VS PWH.
Methods: This 6-month, Phase II randomized, open-label clinical trial compared Tesamorelin versus standard-of-care (SOC) for NCI in abdominally obese PWH.

Diabetology is a continuously evolving discipline, many molecules are developed, and treatment recommendations change regularly according to the latest published studies. After lifestyle measures that must always be preferred before any drug, metformin remains the pharmacological basis of treatment. Current recommendations favor the introduction of an SGLT2 inhibitor or a GLP-1 receptor agonist after metformin because these molecules have shown beneficial cardiovascular and renal effects.

Context: Aromatase inhibitors (AIs) cause bone loss and increase fracture risk in women with hormone receptor-positive early-stage breast cancer (HR+EBC). Bone antiresorptive agents are recommended for patients at risk of fragility fractures. Eldecalcitol, combined with bisphosphonate, increases bone mineral density (BMD) in primary osteoporosis.

Melatonin (MLT) is an indole derivative that exhibits hormone-like activities in plants, regulating multiple aspects of growth and development. Due to its role in mitigating oxidative stress and facilitating osmoprotectant accumulation, MLT enhances abiotic stress tolerance, although the pathways and metabolic mechanisms involved remain unclear despite being studied in various crops. This work aimed to investigate the changes elicited by the exogenous MLT application at different concentrations (10, 50, 150 μM) and its role in mitigating the salinity stress in Lactuca sativa L.
