Background: Postprandial hyperlipidaemia may be a predictor of vascular risk.
Design: We evaluated postprandial lipaemia after an oral fat tolerance test (OFTT) in men (n=41) and women (n=21) with metabolic syndrome (MetS).
Methods: Triglyceride (TG) levels were measured before and 2, 4, 6 and 8 h after the fat load.
Results: Men showed a greater plasma TG response 8 h after the fat load (284+/-117 versus 224+/-126 mg/dl, P=0.029). Only fasting TG levels significantly predicted the TG area under the curve (AUC) and incremental AUC.
Conclusions: Men had a more pronounced postprandial hypertriglyceridaemia and seem to have delayed TG clearance.

Background: Glucose transporter 1 deficiency syndrome (Glut1DS) was initially reported by De Vivo and colleagues in 1991. This disease arises from mutations in the SLC2A1 and presents with a broad clinical spectrum. It is a treatable neuro-metabolic condition, where prompt diagnosis and initiation of ketogenic dietary therapy can markedly enhance the prognosis.

Herein, authors report on an ASD child with comorbid ADHD, ID, metabolic syndrome and nocturnal enuresis that failed multiple trials of psychotropic agents for behavioural dyscontrol. Viloxazine adjuventia brought about remarkable improvement spanning different domains. Purported pharmacodynamic mechanisms are briefly discussed.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent condition that affects individuals worldwide and is one of the leading causes of disability. Nevertheless, the underlying pathological mechanisms of OA remain inadequately understood. Current treatments for OA include non-drug therapies, pharmacological interventions, and surgical procedures.

Aims: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to determine the association of metabolic syndrome (METS) in women with and without overactive bladder (OAB).
Methods: PRISMA guidelines were followed and the protocol was registered at PROSPERO (CRD42024606398). We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and LILACS databases to obtain relevant articles for studies reporting METS outcomes related to OAB published through October 2024.
