Tight glycemic control has been recognised as the cornerstone of modern diabetes management. Until recently, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) was the only reliable tool for measuring glycemic control, but it is not an ideal metric as it is retrospective, unable to pick up hypo- and hyperglycemic excursions and prone to interference by conditions such as anemia and hemoglobinopathies. The advent of continuous glucose monitoring systems is a giant leap in diabetes management as it enables visualisation of glucose trends over periods of time, helping in identification of hypo- and hypoglycemic events and enabling appropriate treatment decisions to be made. The recent launch of the real-time patient CGM in India is a further step in the right direction as it will empower patients to take control of their diabetes by providing them information on their glucose levels and trends in real time.

Background: Molnupiravir (MOV) is an orally bioavailable ribonucleoside with antiviral activity against all tested SARS-CoV-2 variants. We describe the demographic, clinical, and treatment characteristics of non-hospitalized Danish patients treated with MOV and their clinical outcomes following MOV initiation.

Method: Among all adults (>18 years) who received MOV between 16 December 2021 and 30 April 2022 in an outpatient setting in Denmark, we summarized their demographic and clinical characteristics at baseline and post-MOV outcomes using descriptive statistics.

Melatonin (MEL), functioning as a circulating hormone, is important for the regulation of ferroptosis in different health scenarios and acts as a crucial antioxidant in cardiovascular diseases. However, its specific function in ferroptosis related to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) remains to be fully elucidated. In our research, we utilized a rat model of MIRI induced by coronary artery ligation, along with a cell model subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R).

Background: Nucleolar protein 7 (NOL7), a specific protein found in the nucleolus, is crucial for maintaining cell division and proliferation. While the involvement of NOL7 in influencing the unfavorable prognosis of metastatic melanoma has been reported, its significance in predicting the prognosis of patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) remains unclear.

Methods: Aberrant expression of NOL7 in HCC and its prognostic value were evaluated using multiple databases, including TCGA, GTEx, Xiantao Academic, HCCDB, UALCAN, TISCH, and STRING.
