Fecal #microbiota transplantation from mice exposed to chronic intermittent hypoxia elicits #sleep disturbances in naïve mice

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic prevalent condition characterized by intermittent hypoxia (IH) and sleep fragmentation (SF). Evidence suggests that OSA can alter the gut microbiome (GM) diversity and composition that may then promote the occurrence of some of the OSA-associated morbidities. However, it is unclear whether perturbations in the GM caused by IH … Continue reading Fecal #microbiota transplantation from mice exposed to chronic intermittent hypoxia elicits #sleep disturbances in naïve mice

Fasting plasma #glucose level in the range of 90 to 99 mg/dL and the risk of the onset of type 2 #diabetes: Population-based Panasonic cohort study 2

As the association between fasting glucose concentration from 90 to 99 mg/dL and the onset of type 2 diabetes is still controversial, we aimed to assess it in 37,148 Japanese individuals with normal plasma glucose concentration. Materials and MethodsThis long-term retrospective cohort study included individuals with medical checkup at Panasonic Corporation from 2008 to 2018. … Continue reading Fasting plasma #glucose level in the range of 90 to 99 mg/dL and the risk of the onset of type 2 #diabetes: Population-based Panasonic cohort study 2
