Context: Metabolic disorders and cardiovascular disease (CVD) threaten human health. Many studies have assessed the phenomenon of metabolic disorders and CVD in patients with diabetes. However, in euglycemic individuals, the relationships between glucose regulation, metabolism, and CVD remain unclear.
Objective: This work aimed to explore the associations between postprandial glucose dips, metabolic disorders, and CVD risk.
Methods: We analyzed data from the Thyroid disorders, Iodine status and Diabetes Epidemiological survey (TIDE study), which included 38 878 euglycemic individuals from all 31 provinces of mainland China. The prevalence of metabolic disorders and their related components and CVD risk were calculated according to postprandial glucose dips. Logistic regression models of quartiles of postprandial glucose dips were used to further explore whether the prevalence of these disorders was associated with postprandial glucose dips.
Results: Odds ratios for the fourth vs the first quartile of glucose dips were 0.59 (95% CI, 0.55-0.63) (P < .001) for metabolic disorders, 0.48 (95% CI 0.44-0.53) (P < .001) for metabolic syndrome (MetS), and 0.54 (95% CI, 0.50-0.59) (P < .001) for hyperuricemia. The odds ratio of a 10-year CVD risk greater than 20% for the fourth vs the first glucose dip quartile was 0.67 (95% CI, 0.52-0.85) (P < .001). Models adjusted for body mass index yielded similar results.
Conclusion: Postprandial glucose dips are associated with metabolic disorders, MetS and its related component diseases, and CVD risk. Glucose dips may be a marker of underlying metabolic abnormalities.

Preventive interventions are expected to substantially improve the prognosis of patients with primary liver cancer, predominantly hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma. HCC prevention is challenging in the face of the evolving etiological landscape, particularly the sharp increase in obesity-associated metabolic disorders, including metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). Next-generation anti-HCV and HBV drugs have substantially reduced, but not eliminated, the risk of HCC and have given way to new challenges in identifying at-risk patients.

Curcumin is known for its potential health benefits; however, the evidence remains inconclusive regarding its necessity as a supplement for athletes during the preparatory phase of training. This study aimed to assess the effect of 6-week curcumin supplementation at a dose of 2g/day on selected inflammatory markers, blood count, and brain-derived neurotropic factor (BDNF) levels in middle-aged amateur long-distance runners during the preparatory period of a macrocycle. Thirty runners were randomly assigned to either a curcumin-supplemented group (CUR, n = 15) or a placebo group (PLA, n = 15).

Introduction: Patients with cerebral hemorrhage often require a tracheal intubation to protect the airway and maintain oxygenation. Due to the use of analgesic and sedative drugs during endotracheal intubation and the opening of the glottis may easily cause aspiration pneumonia. Ceftriaxone is a semi-synthetic third-generation cephalosporin with strong antimicrobial activity against most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, with oxidative stress playing a pivotal role in its progression. Free radicals produced via oxidative stress contribute to lipid peroxidation, leading to subsequent inflammatory responses, which then result in atherosclerosis. Antioxidants inhibit these harmful effects through their reducing ability, thereby preventing oxidative damage.

This review paper delves into the role of probiotics and food bioactives in influencing gut health and overall well-being, within the context of probiotics and food bioactives, emphasizing their roles in modulating inflammation, gut microbiota, and metabolic health. Probiotics are defined as live microorganisms that confer health benefits to the host, primarily through their impact on the gut microbiome; a complex community of microorganisms crucial for maintaining health. The review aims to elucidate how probiotics, incorporated into both traditional and modern food systems, can enhance gut health and address metabolic disorders.
