Objective: To establish sleeve gastrectomy(SG) rats model of obese type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) for the research of hypoglycemic mechanism.
Methods: Nine male Sprague-Dawley (6-week-old) rats were fed with high-sucrose and high-fat diet for 4 weeks, developing diet-induced obesity (DIO) rats model. The rats were then randomly divided into two groups. Six rats of them underwent sleeve gastrectomy(SG) as the sleeve gastrectomy group[SGG, body weight (471.8±17.9) g] and the other three rats underwent a laparotomy and stomach manipulation as the sham operative group[SOG, body weight (467.0±8.4) g]. The body weight, caloric intake and peripheral blood concentration of total ghrelin of rats were recorded after operation.
Results: The weight of all the rats declined progressively after operation. The weight of the rats in SOG began to rise on the 5th postoperative day(POD) and regain their preoperative levels on the average 22nd POD. However, the weight of the rats in SGG began to rise slowly from the 9th POD, but was still lower than that of SOG[(487.4±10.1) g] and preoperative levels[(471.8±17.9) g] on the 28th POD[(420.1±18.6) g](P=0.001). Average caloric intake of rats in SGG was significantly lower than that of SOG after operation, but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.121). The ghrelin level of SGG showed a continuous decreasing trend after intervention, decreased by 17.4% compared with the preoperative level (1595.1±14.4 ng/L) on the 28th POD[(1316.8±14.8) ng/L]. The ghrelin level of SOG did not change obviously before and after operation and both groups differ statistically(P=0.000).
Conclusions: A SG rat model is successfully established. This model can be used for the further study of mechanism analysis of T2DM resolution after surgery.

Background: Over the past five years, the pregnancy rate in assisted reproductive technology (ART) programs in Russia has remained relatively stable. The aim of this study was to assess the distribution of monocyte and macrophage subsets in the blood and follicular fluid of infertile women undergoing assisted reproductive technology.
Methods: The study involved 45 women with a mean age of 35 ± 4.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are emerging as an important class of drugs in the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. There are rising concerns of pulmonary aspiration with these medications due to drug-induced gastroparesis. While definitive association is uncertain, it is essential to be prudent and manage these patients as per the current evidence and recommendations.

This study explores the relationship between specific SARS-CoV-2 mutations and obesity, focusing on how these mutations may influence COVID-19 severity and outcomes in high-BMI individuals. We analyzed 205 viral mutations from a cohort of 675 patients, examining the association of mutations with BMI, hospitalization, and mortality rates. Logistic regression models and statistical analyses were applied to assess the impact of significant mutations on clinical outcomes, including inflammatory markers and antibody levels.

Background: Salbutamol, a short-acting β-agonist used in asthma treatment, is available in multiple formulations, including inhalers, nebulizers, oral tablets, and intravenous, intramuscular, and subcutaneous routes. Each formulation exhibits distinct pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles, influencing therapeutic outcomes and adverse effects. Although asthma management predominantly relies on inhaled salbutamol, understanding how these formulations interact with patient-specific characteristics could improve personalized medicine approaches, potentially uncovering the therapeutic benefits of alternative formulations for an individual patient.
