Background: Dietary management has been recommended as the cornerstone of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) management. However, low adherence to dietary recommendations has been identified in both developed and developing countries. Previous research suggests that inhibitory control influences eating behavior, but few studies have been conducted in patients with T2DM. Thus, we aimed to explore the relationship between inhibitory control and dietary adherence among patients with T2DM.

Methods: A total of 393 patients with T2DM from the endocrinology departments of three tertiary hospitals in China were enrolled by the convenience sampling method. Dietary adherence was measured by the Dietary Behavior Adherence Scale for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Additionally, inhibitory control was subjectively measured by the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult version (BRIEF-A) and objectively assessed by the stop signal task (SST) and the Stroop task. The relationship between inhibitory control and dietary adherence was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis.

Results: Subjectively measured inhibitory control had a significant predictive effect for dietary adherence after controlling for demographic and clinical variables. Adding the inhibitory control variable to the regression equation resulted in the following values: overall model F (19, 373) = 7.096, p < 0.001, increase in R value by 0.069, change in F (1, 373) = 35.219, p < 0.001. Similarly, the performance of the Stroop task had a significant predictive effect for dietary adherence to some foods, i.e., carbohydrate and fat. Adding the Stroop effect variable to the regression equation resulted in the following values: overall model F (19, 81) = 2.848, p = 0.005, increase in R value by 0.060, change in F (1, 81) = 8.137, p = 0.006.

Conclusions: Inhibitory control was a predictor of dietary adherence in patients with T2DM. Future interventions should investigate whether inhibitory control training results in the improvement of dietary adherence in patients with T2DM.

Excessive inflammatory responses to viral infections, known as cytokine storms, are caused by overactivation of endolysosomal Toll-like receptors (TLRs) (TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, and TLR9) and can be lethal, but no specific treatment is available. Some quinoline derivatives with antiviral activity were tried during the recent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, but showed serious toxicity, and their efficacy for treating viral cytokine storms was not established. Here, in order to discover a low-toxicity quinoline derivative as a candidate for controlling virally induced inflammation, we synthesized a series of derivatives of amodiaquine (ADQ), a quinoline approved as an antimalarial, and tested their effects on TLRs-mediated production of inflammatory cytokines and cell viability in vitro.

Ipconazole (IPC) is a chiral triazole fungicide and commonly used for disease control in seeds. This study investigated the bioactivity and potential mechanism of ipconazole against pathogenic microorganisms at the chiral perspective. It explored the accumulation behavior of ipconazole enantiomers within the soil-earthworm system and evaluated its toxic effects on earthworms.

Background: Intravenous administration of sufentanil during anesthesia induction induces cough (SIC), sometimes triggers a severe reaction. We wanted to investigate the inhibitory effect of low-dose esketamine on cough induced by sufentanil during the induction of general anesthesia, as well as its postoperative impact on mental status (MMSE score, RSS, and VAS-A).

Methods: A total of 256 adult patients were randomly allocated to receive either esketamine (Group EK) or normal saline (Group C).

Background: Selenium can inhibit cervical cancers, but the specific mechanism of anti-cervical cancer is not fully understood.

Methods: In this study, we investigated the anti-cervical cancer effect of sodium selenite (SS) in vivo and in vitro to reveal the role of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway in terms of the mechanism. In vivo experiments, HeLa cell xenografts were constructed in BALB/c female nude mice, and then intraperitoneally injected with 3 mg/kg sodium selenite (SS) for 14 days.

Background: α-Amylase (α-AMY) and α-glucosidase (α-GLU) inhibitors are important for controlling postprandial hyperglycemia (PHG). Bixa orellana (annatto) reported inhibitory activity against these enzymes because of its bioactive compound content. However, an understanding of its inhibitory mechanisms and metabolic profile is necessary to establish its therapeutic potential.
