Ingestive behaviour of control and experimental rats following 96 hours of starvation was studied. The control animals were injected normal saline intraperitoneally (I.P.) whereas the experimental animals were injected I.P. with fresh plasma obtained from well fed rats. Having been presented with food 15 minutes after the injections, the food intake (Gms +/- SEM) of control animals for the first five hours after injection was 6.00 +/- 0.44, whereas, the intake in experimental animals for the same period was 0.55 +/- 0.05. The food intake was significantly suppressed for the next three days, attaining the normal values by the 4th day. Since all the rats were starved prior to injection, all of them increased in weight during the four days of study, but the increase seen in the experimental group was much subdued. Therefore the plasma factor, suppresses not only the food intake but also the gain in body weight.

Background: Association between dietary factors and the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been studied extensively. However, identification of deleterious dietary patterns merits further study.
Aim: To investigate the risk of developing Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) according to the inflammatory score of the diet (ISD) in the multinational European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort.

Background: There is increasing evidence that regulatory problems (RPs), such as excessive crying, sleeping or feeding problems in infancy, could be associated with the development of behavioral problems in childhood. In this meta-analysis we aimed to investigate the strength and characteristics of this association.
Methods: A systematic literature search (PubMed/PsycInfo, until 15/08/2021) for longitudinal prospective studies of infants with RPs and at least one follow-up assessment reporting incidence and/or severity of behavioral problems was conducted.

Background: Mizagliflozin (MIZ) is a specific inhibitor of sodium-glucose cotransport protein 1 (SGLT1) originally developed as a medication for diabetes.
Aim: To explore the impact of MIZ on diabetic nephropathy (DN).
Methods: Diabetic mice were created using db/db mice.

Objective: To provide insights and strategies for pegvaliase management in challenging cases with phenylketonuria (PKU) based on the first 5 years of experience with pegvaliase in real-world clinical practice.
Methods: Twelve PKU experts gathered during a one-day, in-person meeting to discuss clinical cases illustrating important lessons from their experiences treating patients with pegvaliase in real-world clinical practice. Challenges with pegvaliase experienced prior to and during treatment and corresponding strategies to overcome them were discussed.

Background And Aim: A healthy diet has been recommended for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We aim to investigate the associations of diet quality indices with the risk of developingmetabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD).
Methods: We conducted this nested case-control study by recruiting 968 cases with MAFLD and 964 controls from the participants of the baseline phase of the Sabzevar Persian Cohort Study (SPCS).
