A 10-year retrospective case note study of adults with eating disorders at low weight examined levels of service consumption and the outcome in terms of body mass index. Records of 202 such patients, referred to a specialist secondary service, were studied. Just over one quarter of the patients failed to engage in treatment, attending five or fewer appointments. Of those who did engage, most were treated as out-patients and had an average contact with the service of almost 2.5 years and 46 sessions. Only about one in six patients was admitted as an in-patient at any time. These results suggest that most adults with eating disorder at low weight can be managed as out-patients. However, service providers should expect prolonged contact and high service consumption.

Urinary bioorthogonal reporters for the monitoring of the efficacy of chemotherapy for lung cancer and of associated kidney injury.

The utility of urinary tests for the monitoring of the treatment efficacy and adverse events of anticancer therapies is constrained by the low concentration of relevant urinary biomarkers. Here we report, using mice with lung cancer and treated with chemotherapy, of a urinary fluorescence test for the concurrent monitoring of the levels of a tumour biomarker (cathepsin B) and of a biomarker of chemotherapy-induced kidney injury (N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase). The test involves two intratracheally administered urinary reporters leveraging caged bioorthogonal click handles for the biomarker-dependent activation of 'clickability' and renal clearance, and the bioorthogonal click reaction of each renally cleared reporter with paired fluorescence indicators in the collected urine.

Remote sensing images often suffer from the degradation effects of atmospheric haze, which can significantly impair the quality and utility of the acquired data. A novel dehazing method leveraging generative adversarial networks is proposed to address this challenge. It integrates a generator network, designed to enhance the clarity and detail of hazy images, with a discriminator network that distinguishes between dehazed and real clear images.

Introduction: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by severe exercise intolerance, particularly in those living with obesity. Low-energy meal-replacement plans (MRPs) have shown significant weight loss and potential cardiac remodelling benefits. This pragmatic randomised trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of MRP-directed weight loss on exercise intolerance, symptoms, quality of life and cardiovascular remodelling in a multiethnic cohort with obesity and HFpEF.
