Background: Although socioeconomic support is recommended for frailty management, its association with the prognosis of frailty is unclear.
Methods: Using data from participants aged ≥65 years in the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (2008-2018), the associations between socioeconomic support (source of income, medical insurance, community support, living status), onset of prefrailty/frailty, and worsening of prefrailty, were analyzed using multinominal logistic regression models. The associations between self-reported low quality of life (QoL) and reversion of prefrailty/frailty were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression models.
To investigate the antidiabetic effects and mechanisms of quinoa on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice model. In this context, we induced the T2DM mice model with a high-fat diet (HFD) combined with streptozotocin (STZ), followed by treatment with a quinoa diet. To explore the impact of quinoa on the intestinal flora, we predicted and validated its potential mechanism of hypoglycemic effect through network pharmacology, molecular docking, western blot, and immunohistochemistry (IHC).

- This study explored the effects of supplementation with mulberry leaf (MOL) on oxidative stress, inflammation, and gut bacteria in a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) induced by letrozole.
- The research found that MOL supplementation led to a significant reduction in body weight, improved insulin sensitivity, and balanced hormone levels, potentially relieving oxidative stress.
- Additionally, MOL altered the composition of intestinal flora, suggesting its potential as a supplementary treatment for managing PCOS.
