AI Article Synopsis
- Smoking cessation is critical for asthmatic smokers, and respiratory rehabilitation can improve symptoms and overall quality of life.
- A comprehensive approach to environmental control and management of obesity and psychological issues is essential for effective asthma treatment.
- Allergen immunotherapy can be considered for persistent asthma caused by house dust mites, while certain dietary changes and alternative medicines lack strong evidence for effectiveness.
Article Abstract
Smoking cessation remains a major issue for asthmatic smokers. Respiratory rehabilitation and respiratory physiotherapy have shown a benefit in controlling symptoms, preventing exacerbations and improving the quality of life. The control of the environment is crucial and must be approached in a global way. Management of obesity and psychological disorders should be systematically proposed. Allergen immunotherapy may be discussed in allergic persistent asthma to house dust mites. Certain dietary interventions or alternative medicines have not proved their worth.

Introduction: The risk of HCC is twice as high in diabetic patients compared to non-diabetic ones, suggesting that diabetes advances carcinogenesis in the liver through a variety of mechanisms. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have been shown to improve liver outcomes, emerging as promising agents to treat hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Methods: We searched PubMed and Scopus databases for articles presenting an association between SGLT2is and HCC to explore the putative mechanisms of action underlying the anti-proliferative activity of SGLT2is.

Following a decades-long decline in psychedelic research resulting from social, political, and legislative factors, there has been greatly renewed interest in these compounds' ability to treat psychiatric disorders. Classic psychedelics, encompassing both natural and synthetic psychoactive compounds, are characterized by their action as agonists or partial agonists of serotonin 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptors. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the latest clinical trials of classic psychedelics on depression and anxiety, attending to the patient demographics and methodology of each study.
