During the first 3 weeks of life, four litters of CD-1 male mice were daily handled (HA group) and four other litters were left undisturbed (UHA group). At 35 days of life, mice underwent the tail flick (TF) and hot plate (HP) tests to measure the baseline reaction to thermal nociceptive stimulation. At the age of 50, 80, and 140 days body weight was measured. At the last time point the epididymal fat pads (EFPs) were also taken and weighed. We found that, 16 days after the suspension of the manipulation. HA mice showed increased latencies to both nociceptive tests and, starting on day 80, they began to develop a significant increment in body weight. An increase was also evident in EFP weight of HA mice.

Long-term burden of body mass index since childhood and impaired physical performance in midlife.

Pediatr Res

January 2025

Department of Epidemiology, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA, USA.

Background: The impact of long-term burden of body mass index (BMI) since childhood on physical performance in midlife remains unclear. We aimed to investigate the association between cumulative exposure to BMI since childhood and midlife physical performance by using data from the Bogalusa Heart Study (BHS).

Methods: This longitudinal study consisted of 749 participants (aged 37.

We compared the BMI-for-age (BMI/A) trajectory of Brazilian adolescents monitored in the primary health care (PHC) setting based on a simulated scenario. We used a real-life cohort of adolescents monitored by the Food and Nutrition Surveillance System (Sisvan) between 2008 and 2018. The LMS method was employed to estimate the simulated BMI/A evolution curve, assuming that the adolescents maintained the conditions observed during their first assessment (simulation curve).

The combined impact of concurrent primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) on pregnancy outcomes remains underreported. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 115 pregnant patients diagnosed with pSS and delivering at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2009 to July 2023. The effects of AITD on maternal and neonatal outcomes were examined and compared to a control group without AITD.

Diabetic neuropathic pain (DNP) is a common complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) and is characterized by spontaneous pain and neuroinflammation. The Sigma-1 receptor (Sig-1R) has been proposed as a target for analgesic development. It is an important receptor with anti-inflammatory properties and has been found to regulate DNP.
