Current cardiometabolic disease prevention guidelines recommend increasing dietary unsaturated fat intake while reducing saturated fats. Here we use lipidomics data from a randomized controlled dietary intervention trial to construct a multilipid score (MLS), summarizing the effects of replacing saturated fat with unsaturated fat on 45 lipid metabolite concentrations. In the EPIC-Potsdam cohort, a difference in… Continue reading #Lipidome changes due to improved dietary #fat quality inform cardiometabolic risk reduction and precision #nutrition
Prevalence of #irritable bowel syndrome and functional $dyspepsia after acute #gastroenteritis: systematic review and meta-analysis
Objective Disorders of gut-brain interaction may arise after acute gastroenteritis. Data on the influence of pathogen type on the risk of postinfection IBS (PI-IBS), as on postinfection functional dyspepsia (PI-FD), are limited. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine prevalence of PI-IBS or PI-FD after acute gastroenteritis.Design We included observational studies recruiting ≥50 adults and… Continue reading Prevalence of #irritable bowel syndrome and functional $dyspepsia after acute #gastroenteritis: systematic review and meta-analysis
#Antibiotic-driven #dysbiosis in early life disrupts indole-3-propionic acid production and exacerbates #allergic airway inflammation in adulthood
•Early-life antibiotics increase the risk of allergy in adulthood•Antibiotics cause short-term disruption of the microbiome and systemic metabolome•Dysfunctional mitochondria in the airway epithelium lead to exaggerated inflammation•Indole-3-propionic acid counters the detrimental effects of early-life antibioticsSummaryAntibiotic use in early life disrupts microbial colonization and increases the risk of developing allergies and asthma. We report that mice… Continue reading #Antibiotic-driven #dysbiosis in early life disrupts indole-3-propionic acid production and exacerbates #allergic airway inflammation in adulthood
Efficacy of #Atogepant in Chronic #Migraine With and Without Acute Medication Overuse in the Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3 PROGRESS Trial
AbstractBackground and ObjectivesAtogepant is an oral, calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonist approved for the preventive treatment of migraine. We evaluated the efficacy of atogepant for the preventive treatment of chronic migraine (CM) in participants with and without acute medication overuse.MethodsThis subgroup analysis of the phase 3, 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled PROGRESS trial evaluated adults with… Continue reading Efficacy of #Atogepant in Chronic #Migraine With and Without Acute Medication Overuse in the Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3 PROGRESS Trial
Metabolic effects of very-low calorie #diet, #Semaglutide, or combination of the two, in individuals with type 2 #diabetes mellitus
Background & aimsVery-low calorie diets (VLCD) and the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP1RA) Semaglutide induce significant weight loss and improve glycaemic control in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). This pilot study was conducted to explore the comparative short-term effects of these interventions individually, and in combination, on weight, body composition and metabolic outcomes.MethodsThirty individuals… Continue reading Metabolic effects of very-low calorie #diet, #Semaglutide, or combination of the two, in individuals with type 2 #diabetes mellitus
Nasal tau #immunotherapy clears intracellular #tau pathology and improves cognitive functions in aged tauopathy mice
Editor’s summaryTau pathology is a common denominator for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease or frontotemporal dementia, but selectively targeting toxic tau remains a challenge. Here, Gaikwad et al. developed a conformation-specific antibody for tau and demonstrated selective targeting of toxic tau aggregates in patient-derived tissue and tau oligomers in vitro. Packed into lipophile micelles, the antibody… Continue reading Nasal tau #immunotherapy clears intracellular #tau pathology and improves cognitive functions in aged tauopathy mice
#Sleep duration, chronotype, #health and lifestyle factors affect cognition: a UK Biobank cross-sectional study
Objective To explore the nuanced relationship between sleep patterns, chronotype, quality and the influence of health and lifestyle factors on cognitive performance.Design, setting, participants This cross-sectional analysis used ordinary least squares regression within the UK Biobank database, assessing 26 820 participants aged 53–86 years, categorised into two cohorts: Cohort 1 (10 067 participants, 56% female; completed all four… Continue reading #Sleep duration, chronotype, #health and lifestyle factors affect cognition: a UK Biobank cross-sectional study
Quantified Metrics of #Gastric Emptying Delay by #Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Agonists: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis With Insights for Periprocedural Management
INTRODUCTION: Divergent recommendations for periprocedural management of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) medications rely on limited evidence. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to provide quantitative measures of gastric emptying relevant to mechanisms of weight loss and to periprocedural management of GLP-1 RA. We hypothesized that the magnitude of gastric emptying delay would… Continue reading Quantified Metrics of #Gastric Emptying Delay by #Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Agonists: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis With Insights for Periprocedural Management
Multikingdom and functional gut #microbiota markers for #autism spectrum disorder
Associations between the gut microbiome and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have been investigated although most studies have focused on the bacterial component of the microbiome. Whether gut archaea, fungi and viruses, or function of the gut microbiome, is altered in ASD is unclear. Here we performed metagenomic sequencing on faecal samples from 1,627 children (aged… Continue reading Multikingdom and functional gut #microbiota markers for #autism spectrum disorder
