AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigated the early metabolic effects of a surgical procedure combining sleeve gastrectomy and transit bipartition (SG + TB) in obese female patients with type 2 diabetes.
  • A total of 35 women with an average age of 48.8 years and a high body mass index participated, and results showed that 88.6% achieved diabetic remission within three months post-surgery.
  • Postoperative outcomes revealed significant weight loss and improvement in dyslipidemia levels, suggesting that SG + TB could be an effective treatment for obesity-related diabetes.

Article Abstract

Purpose: To present the early metabolic effects of sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (SG + TB) procedure in female obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Methods: This prospective clinical study was carried out between January 2016 and June 2017. Inclusion criteria were female participants under 60 years old with T2DM, body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m and HbA1c level ≥ 8%. All patients underwent to SG + TB procedure. Primary outcomes were the glycemic control variables, and the secondary outcomes were weight loss and dyslipidemia levels up to the last follow-up point.

Results: A total of 35 female participants with an average age of 48.8 ± 6.0 years old and a mean preoperative BMI of 42.0 ± 1.3 kg/m were included during the study period. Diabetic remission was achieved in 88.6% of patients (n = 31) on the third month without any antidiabetic medications. The mean postoperative BMI of patients was 24.8 ± 1.6 kg/m, and dyslipidemia levels were significiantly lower at the last follow-up point of all patients.

Conclusions: SG + TB procedure may be a potent therapeutic option for the treatment of obese patients with T2DM.

Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a well-known pro-inflammatory cytokine originally recognized for its ability to induce apoptosis and cell death. However, recent research has revealed that TNF-α also plays a crucial role as a mediator of cell survival, influencing a wide range of cellular functions. The signaling of TNF-α is mediated through two distinct receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2, which trigger various intracellular pathways, including NF-κB, JNK, and caspase signaling cascades.

Background: Medication safety is crucial in clinical care. Although many hospitals have implemented prospective prescription review systems to manage medication use, the impact of these systems on pediatric patients is not yet fully understood.

Objectives: We explore the characteristics and economic impacts of pediatric prospective prescription review and identify factors influencing intervention success rates.

Previous research has highlighted the critical role of amino acid metabolism (AAM) in the pathophysiology of sepsis. The present study aimed to explore the potential diagnostic and prognostic value of AAM-related genes (AAMGs) in sepsis, as well as their underlying molecular mechanisms. Gene expression profiles from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GSE65682, GSE185263 and GSE154918 datasets) were analyzed.

The hypoxia microenvironment post-myocardial infarction (MI) critically disturbs cellular metabolism and inflammation response, leading to scarce bioenergy supplying, prolonged inflammatory phase and high risk of cardiac fibrosis during cardiac restoration. Herein, an injectable hydrogel is prepared by Schiff base reaction between fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP)-grafted carboxymethyl chitosan (CF) and oxidized dextran (OD), followed by loading fucoidan-coated baicalin (BA)-encapsulated zein nanoparticles (BFZ NPs), in which immunoregulatory and metabolism improving functions are integrally included. The grafted FBP serves to enhance glycolysis and provide more bioenergy for cardiomyocytes survival under hypoxia microenvironment, and elevating cellular antioxidant capacity pentose phosphate pathway.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are carriers of a diverse array of bioactive molecules, making them valuable clinical tools for liquid biopsy in disease diagnosis and prognosis evaluation. These molecules play critical roles in various physiological and pathological conditions, and effective separation of EVs is essential to achieve these objectives. Due to the high heterogeneity of EVs, particularly with regard to their cargo molecules, merely isolating the general EV population is inadequate for liquid biopsy and biological function studies.
