Association of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists with risk of cancers-evidence from a drug target Mendelian randomization and clinical trials
CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that GLP1RA may decrease the risk of breast cancer and basal cell carcinoma, but increase the risk of colorectal cancer. However, according to the systematic review of RCTs, the incidence of cancer in patients treated with GLP1RA is low. Larger sample sizes of RCTs with long-term follow-up are necessary to establish the incidence of cancers and evaluate the risk-benefit ratios.PMID:38701500 | DOI:10.1097/JS9.0000000000001514 (Source: Cancer Control)

Differential effect by chronic disease risk: A secondary analysis of the ChooseWell 365 randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSIONS: Those with chronic diseases had greater reductions in calories purchased and gained less weight. Employers with limited resources for health promotion might consider tailoring programs to employees at highest risk.PMID:38699077 | PMC:PMC11063590 | DOI:10.1016/j.pmedr.2024.102736 (Source: Cancer Control)

Exploring exercise-driven exerkines: unraveling the regulation of metabolism and inflammation
PeerJ. 2024 Apr 29;12:e17267. doi: 10.7717/peerj.17267. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTExercise has many beneficial effects that provide health and metabolic benefits. Signaling molecules are released from organs and tissues in response to exercise stimuli and are widely termed exerkines, which exert influence on a multitude of intricate multi-tissue processes, such as muscle, adipose tissue, pancreas, liver, cardiovascular tissue, kidney, and bone. For the metabolic effect, exerkines regulate the metabolic homeostasis of organisms by increasing glucose uptake and improving fat synthesis. For the anti-inflammatory effect, exerki...

Vaspin facilitates the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells
CONCLUSIONS: In summary, vaspin observably reduces HG-mediated inhibition of PDLSCs OD by modulating the TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway. Vaspin may be a potential therapeutic for periodontal tissue regeneration in diabetic patients.PMID:38699861 | DOI:10.1111/jre.13254 (Source: Cell Research)

Analysis of chemoresistance characteristics and prognostic relevance of postoperative gemcitabine adjuvant chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer
ConclusionsPatients with pancreatic cancer receiving postoperative gemcitabine adjuvant therapy are more likely to develop chemoresistance when their tumor sizes are larger (diameter>3  cm). Development of chemoresistance exacerbates the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer, and larger tumor size is also a risk factor for poor prognosis in these patients.

GSE265976 A set of circulating microRNAs belonging to the 14q32 chromosomic locus identifies two different subgroups of individuals with recent onset Stage 3 type 1 diabetes [first cohort, targeted]
In this study, we employ a multiplatform sequencing approach to analyze circulating microRNAs in an extended cohort of individuals with T1DM from the INNODIA consortium. Our findings reveal that a set of microRNAs located within the T1DM susceptibility chromosomal locus 14q32 distinguishes two subgroups of individuals. To validate our results, we conduct additional analyses on a second cohort of T1DM individuals, confirming the identification of these subgroups, which we have named Cluster A and Cluster B. Remarkably, Cluster B T1DM individuals, who exhibit increased expression of a set of 14q32 miRNAs, show better glycaem...

Endoscopic Endonasal Approach for Residual and Recurrent Craniopharyngioma after Transcranial Approach: A Multi-institutional Experience
Conclusions EEA achieves reasonable GTR rates and is an effective, safe surgical option for recurrent CP postinitial TCA. This approach demonstrated stable or improved visual and endocrinologic outcomes in all patients within our two-institution series. Thus, EEA should be considered as an efficacious form of retreatment in cases of progressive and recurrent CP.
