Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of dasiglucagon, a novel stable glucagon analog in a liquid formulation, in Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB)-operated individuals suffering from postbariatric hypoglycemia (PBH).
Research Design And Methods: In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover trial, 10 RYGB-operated participants with continuous glucose monitoring-verified PBH were randomly assigned to 3 trial days, each consisting of a 240-min standardized liquid mixed-meal test with the subcutaneous injection of placebo or 80 μg or 200 μg dasiglucagon.
Results: Compared with placebo, treatment with both 80 and 200 μg dasiglucagon raised nadir plasma glucose (PG) (placebo: 3.0 ± 0.2 mmol/L [mean ± SEM]; 80 μg dasiglucagon: 3.9 ± 0.3 mmol/L, P = 0.002; 200 μg dasiglucagon: 4.5 ± 0.2 mmol/L, P = 0.0002) and reduced time in hypoglycemia (PG <3.9 mmol/L) by 70.0 min (P = 0.030 and P = 0.008).
Conclusions: Single-dose administration of dasiglucagon effectively mitigated postprandial hypoglycemia.

Context: Autoimmune atrophic gastritis (AAG) is a frequently underdiagnosed disease due to its broad-spectrum clinical presentation. The diagnosis is based on histological confirmation of corpus-restricted metaplastic chronic atrophic gastritis.
Objective: To thoroughly describe the histological features of a European cohort of AAG patients.
Identification and characterisation of pathogenic and non-pathogenic FGF14 repeat expansions.

Repeat expansions in FGF14 cause autosomal dominant late-onset cerebellar ataxia (SCA27B) with estimated pathogenic thresholds of 250 (incomplete penetrance) and 300 AAG repeats (full penetrance), but the sequence of pathogenic and non-pathogenic expansions remains unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that STRling and ExpansionHunter accurately detect FGF14 expansions from short-read genome data using outlier approaches. By combining long-range PCR and nanopore sequencing in 169 patients with cerebellar ataxia and 802 controls, we compare FGF14 expansion alleles, including interruptions and flanking regions.

In the New World, dogs are considered the main reservoir of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Due to inefficacies in existing treatments and the lack of an efficient vaccine, dog culling is one of the main strategies used to control disease, making the development of new therapeutic interventions mandatory. We previously showed that Tanespimycin (17-AAG), a Hsp90 inhibitor, demonstrated potential for use in leishmaniasis treatment.

(1) Background: In children, SARS-CoV-2 infection is mostly accompanied by mild COVID-19 symptoms. However, multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) and long-term sequelae are often severe complications. Therefore, the protection of the pediatric population against SARS-CoV-2 with effective vaccines is particularly important.
