To investigate the effect of oral glucose intake on gastric motility, we measured gastric myoelectrical activity and gastric emptying on two test conditions: 1) glucose intake and 2) water intake in the same 10 healthy male volunteers (20 to 29 years old). Gastric motility was evaluated with cutaneous-recorded electrogastrography (EGG) for 30 min both on fasting and after glucose or water intake, while gastric emptying was measured using acetaminophen-absorption method. There were no significant changes in EGG dominant frequency after water intake, but the frequency increased significantly after glucose intake. A postprandial dip (i.e., a transient decrease in frequency immediately after the food intake) was observed in 3 subjects after water intake and in 8 subjects following glucose intake. The EGG power ratio was significantly larger after glucose than water intake, with delayed gastric emptying in the former case. These results suggest that glucose is one of the components responsible for postprandial gastric motility.

Objective: Meat intake is suggested to affect gut microbiome composition and the risk of chronic diseases. We aimed to identify meat-associated gut microbiome features and their association with host factors.
Design: Gut microbiota species were profiled by deep shotgun metagenomics sequencing in 9669 individuals.

Aim: Time-restricted eating (TRE) limits the time for food intake to typically 6-10 h/day without other dietary restrictions. The aim of the RESET2 (the REStricted Eating Time in the treatment of type 2 diabetes) trial is to investigate the effects on glycaemic control (HbA) and the feasibility of a 1-year TRE intervention in individuals with overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes. The aim of the present paper is to describe the protocol for the RESET2 trial.

Aim: This study aimed to explore the possible bidirectional interrelations between fructose-induced metabolic syndrome (MS) and apical periodontitis (AP).
Methodology: Twenty-eight male Wistar rats were distributed into four groups (n = 7, per group): Control (C), AP, Fructose Consumption (FRUT) and Fructose Consumption and AP (FRUT+AP). The rats in groups C and AP received filtered water, while those in groups FRUT and FRUT+AP received a 20% fructose solution mixed with water to induce MS.

Maternal amino acid intake and its biological value may influence glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity, impacting the risk of developing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). This study aimed to evaluate the association between amino acid intake from maternal diet before and during pregnancy and the risk of GDM. This study is part of the ongoing BORN2020 epidemiological Greek cohort.

Background/objectives: Studies have shown that chronobiological factors may adversely affect glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We assessed the association of chronobiological factors with glycemic control and neonatal birth weight in women with GDM.
Methods: A prospective cohort study included 208 women aged 18-45 years with a singleton pregnancy who were randomly selected from among women undergoing follow-up for GDM at the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Unit of a tertiary medical center.
