59 blood samples from newborn fallow deer calves were clinical-chemically investigated at day of birth. To estimate the metabolic situation post natum we measured the concentration of glucose (6.8 +/- 2.2 mmol/l), total protein (54.0 +/- 8.7 g/l), albumin (19.5 +/- 2.3 g/l), gammaglobulins (3.5 +/- 2.0 g/l), urea (5.2 +/- 1.8 mmol/l), creatinine (86.2 +/- 22.8 mumol/l) and bilirubin (4.4 +/- 4.4 mumol/l). Furthermore the activity of the enzymes AP (3258 U/l), ALAT (10.8 U/)l, ASAT (67.2 U/l), GGT (82.2 U/l) and CK (181.0 U/l) was measured. Additionally following minerals were determined: sodium (135.8 +/- 10.2 mmol/l), chloride (95.6 +/- 7.5 mmol/l), potassium (4.3 +/- 0.6 mmol/l), calcium (2.6 +/- 0.3 mmol/l), inorganic phosphor (2.4 +/- 0.5 mmol/l) and iron (12.1 +/- 8.0 mumol/l).

Background And Objectives: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its constituent comorbidities, along with mineral imbalances, pose a significant health burden in the Qatari population. Although Magnesium (Mg) and Calcium (Ca) have been individually linked to MetS, the impact of the calcium-to-magnesium ratio (Ca: Mg) on MetS remains unclear, especially in the adult population of Qatar. In this study, we aim to investigate the association between the total serum concentrations of Ca, Mg and Ca: Mg ratio with the outcome of MetS.

Background: Atherosclerotic dyslipidemia is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Although previous studies have demonstrated an association between the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) and insulin resistance, there remains a scarcity of large cohort studies investigating the association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in the general population. This study aims to investigate the potential association between AIP and the long-term risk of T2D in individuals with normal fasting plasma glucose levels.

Background: Clinical guidelines in the UK and elsewhere do not specifically address hybrid closed loop (HCL) use in the postpartum period when the demands of caring for a newborn are paramount. Our aim was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of HCL use during the first 6 months postpartum compared with standard care.
Methods: In this prespecified extension to a multicentre, randomised controlled trial, pregnant women with type 1 diabetes at nine UK sites were followed up for 6 months postpartum.

Methanogenic archaea (methanogens) possess fascinating metabolic characteristics, such as the ability to fix molecular nitrogen (N). Methanogens are of biotechnological importance due to the ability to produce methane (CH) from molecular hydrogen (H) and carbon dioxide (CO) and to excrete proteinogenic amino acids. This study focuses on analyzing the link between biological methanogenesis and amino acid excretion under N-fixing conditions.

Acute studies have consistently demonstrated small-to-medium glycaemic responses to breaking prolonged sitting, yet it is not known whether acute effects are maintained following a period of intervention or whether behavioural interventions lead to sustained benefits. A single arm, 4-week intervention with pre and post "two-arm" randomised cross-over conditions, study was conducted to investigate whether reducing prolonged sitting in free-living affects acute and chronic glucose and insulin responses. Adults aged 40-75 years living with overweight or obesity with an elevated HbA1c (5.
