Objective: To observe the effect of Sijunzi Decoction (SD) on the intestinal absorption of glucose in model rats of Pi-qi deficiency syndrome (PQDS).
Methods: PQDS rat model was established by subcutaneous injection of reserpine from the neck. The body weight and urine D-xylose excretion rates were measured. The glucose uptake rate was measured by jejunum perfusion. The intestinal mucosa was collected. The glucose transporter-2 (GLUT2) protein and mRNA expression levels were detected.
Results: Compared with the normal control group, the body weight and D-xylose excretion rates decreased in the model group. Meanwhile, the glucose uptake and GLUT2 protein and mRNA expression levels decreased in the model group. The aforesaid indices were improved in the SD group.
Conclusion: SD could promote the recovery of glucose uptake in the small intestine of reserpine induced PQDS rats.

Constipation is correlated with diminished cognitive function, revealing a possible rectum-brain connection. In this counter-balanced crossover trial, 13 elite triathletes underwent a Stroop test to assess cognitive function and executive control. The Stroop test was conducted both with and without magnesium oxide intake, with a 1-week washout period between sessions.

Metabolic reprogramming of tumor cells is an emerging hallmark of cancer. Among all the changes in cancer metabolism, increased glucose uptake and the accumulation of lactate under normoxic conditions (the "Warburg effect") is a common feature of cancer cells. In this study, we develop a lactate-responsive drug delivery platform by targeting the Warburg effect.

Glucose is a major source of energy for the brain. At the blood-brain barrier (BBB), glucose uptake is facilitated by glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1). GLUT1 Deficiency Syndrome (GLUT1DS), a haploinsufficiency affecting SLC2A1, reduces glucose brain uptake.

Background: We still know little about the effective pharmacological treatment of heart failure (HF) associated with the Fontan circulation. One of the new options may be sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), which have been proven effective in classic forms of left ventricular HF.
Objectives: To evaluate the effect and safety of SGLT2i inclusion in adults with Fontan circulation.

Purpose: Radionuclide-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) is an emerging tumor tracer. We sought to assess the uptake and diagnostic performance of F-FAPI-42 PET/CT compared with simultaneous 2-deoxy-2[F]fluoro-D-glucose (F-FDG) PET/CT in primary and metastatic lesions in patients with malignant digestive system neoplasms and to determine the potential clinical benefit.
Procedures: Forty-two patients (men = 30, women = 12, mean age = 56.
