AI Article Synopsis

  • Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread condition that leads to significant disability, but its underlying causes are still not fully understood.
  • Current OA treatments focus on symptom relief and improving quality of life, but do not halt its progression.
  • Recent studies suggest that metabolic syndrome and its components are important factors in OA, highlighting the need for more research to develop effective treatment strategies.

Article Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent condition that affects individuals worldwide and is one of the leading causes of disability. Nevertheless, the underlying pathological mechanisms of OA remain inadequately understood. Current treatments for OA include non-drug therapies, pharmacological interventions, and surgical procedures. These treatments are mainly focused on alleviating clinical manifestations and improving patients' quality of life, but are not effective in limiting the progression of OA. The detailed understanding of the pathogenesis of OA is extremely significant for the development of OA treatment. Metabolic syndrome has become a great challenge for medicine and public health, In recent years, several studies have demonstrated that the metabolic syndrome and its individual components play a crucial role in OA. Consequently, this review summarizes the mechanisms and research progress on how metabolic syndrome and its components affect OA. The aim is to gain a deeper understanding of the pathogenesis of OA and explore effective treatment strategies.

Background: Obesity and metabolic syndrome are major public health concerns linked to cognitive decline with aging. Prior work from our lab has demonstrated that short-term high fat diet (HFD) rapidly impairs memory function via a neuroinflammatory mechanism. However, the degree to which these rapid inflammatory changes are unique to the brain is unknown.

Purpose Of Review: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine disorder with several causal pathways including impaired glucose tolerance, insulin resistance (IR), compensatory hyperinsulinemia and excess androgens (hyperandrogenism). This heterogeneous condition causes a range of reproductive, metabolic and psychological implications, the severity of which can differ between individuals depending on factors such as age, diet, ethnicity, genetics, medication, contraceptive use, adiposity, and Body Mass Index (BMI).

Recent Findings: Dietary interventions that focus on a low glycaemic index and glucose control are an efficient first-line dietary solution for the management of impaired glucose tolerance and IR, which subsequently improves weight management, quality of life and PCOS-related symptoms in individuals with this condition.

Research Question: Are the combined genotypes and haplotypes of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms (FokI, ApaI and TaqI) associated with susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and metabolic features of the disease?

Design: This case-control study included 46 women with PCOS and 48 controls. Genotypes of the VDR gene were determined using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Waist circumference, and parameters of lipid and glucose metabolism were evaluated in all women.

Background: Therapeutic apheresis (TA) are promising treatment option for neuroimmunological disorders. In paediatrics, the available data is limited, particularly for the use of IA. The aim of this study was to analyse the use of PE and IA in children and adolescents, with emphasis on outcome and neurological course after treatment as well as the safety of the two modalities.
