Male and female rats were used for CPIB-administered inducement of peroxisomes in liver and kidney tissues. Male rats respond to CPIB with higher levels of peroxisomal proliferation than females. Superoxide dismutase activity does not appear to be influenced by CPIB in any of the tissues studied. Aminotriazole depressed catalase activity in both males and females.

Metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver and kidney stones: what is going on?
Curr Opin Nephrol Hypertens

Department of Urology, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, Alabama, USA.
Purpose Of Review: Metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasing throughout the world, affecting nearly one in three individuals. Kidney stone disease, which is also increasing, is associated with MASLD. Common risk factors for both, including obesity, diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome, are likely drivers of this association.

Plastics are globally considered a significant threat, particularly to metropolitan areas, due to the extensive use of plastic products. This research is the first of its kind to document microplastics contamination and its effects on Red wettled lapwing (Vanellus indicus). The concentration of microplastics (MPs) was measured from surface water at different locations including canals and drains, which are the primary sources of MPs pollution in the metropolitan city Lahore, Pakistan.

Department of Medicine, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, Shreveport, Louisiana, USA.
Background: Subjects with metabolic syndrome and obesity have higher levels of inflammation with depression of the vitamin D (VD) hydroxylase/metabolising genes () required to convert VD consumed in the diet into 25(OH)VD. Compared with total 25(OH)VD levels, measurement of bioavailable 25(OH)VD is a better method to determine the beneficial effect of VD.
Objective: This study investigates whether cosupplementation with VD and L-cysteine (LC), which downregulates inflammation and upregulates VD-regulating genes, provides a better therapeutic benefit than supplementation with VD-alone in African Americans (AA).
Point-of-care Ultrasonography in Patients with Hepatorenal Syndrome: A Single Center Observational Study.
Indian J Crit Care Med
November 2024
Department of Hepatology and Liver Transplantation, AIG Hospitals, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.
Aim And Background: A combination of terlipressin and albumin is the standard of care for patients with hepatorenal syndrome-acute kidney injury (HRS-AKI). The study aimed to compare the venous congestion using lung ultrasound score (LUS) and radiographic assessment of lung edema (RALE) scores among terlipressin responders and nonresponders and survivors and non-survivors.
Materials And Methods: In this single-center, prospective, observational study, we included adult patients with HRS-AKI who had received terlipressin and albumin from 28th April 2022 to 16th October 2022.

Linezolid, an oxazolidinone antibiotic, is widely used to treat infections caused by gram-positive bacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics. It inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by targeting rRNA. Although generally safe when used for short durations in uncomplicated patients, prolonged use may lead to adverse effects.
