Can This Breakfast Food Reverse Alzheimer ’ s?
I’m sure you’ve noticed how expensive eggs have gotten lately. The price has soared more than any other food in the supermarket…up 60% from one year ago.1
One reason for skyrocketing prices is the ongoing avian flu epidemic. But another reason is that demand for “nature’s perfect food” has increased substantially.
And that is good news because eggs are essential for your health – including the fight against Alzheimer’s.
And that means they’re worth every penny for the way they protect your brain.
Two breakthrough studies back up what I’ve been telling my patients for over three decades…
That ...

Unlucky numbers: Fighting murder convictions that rest on shoddy stats
LEIDEN, THE NETHERLANDS—
When a Dutch nurse named Lucia de Berk stood trial for serial murder in 2003, statistician Richard Gill was aware of the case. But he saw no reason to stick his nose into it.
De Berk was a pediatric nurse at Juliana Children’s Hospital in The Hague. In 2001, after a baby died while she was on duty, a colleague told superiors that De Berk had been present at a suspiciously high number of deaths and resuscitations. Hospital staff immediately informed the police. When investigators reexamined records from De Berk’s shifts, they found 10 suspicious incidents. Three other hospitals where D...

Mendelian randomization analyses for PCOS: evidence, opportunities, and challenges
Trends Genet. 2022 Jan 27:S0168-9525(22)00005-1. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2022.01.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIdentifying etiological risk factors is significant for preventing and treating patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Through genetic variation, Mendelian randomization (MR) assesses causal associations between PCOS risk and related exposure factors. This emerging technology has provided evidence of causal associations of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels, menopause age, adiposity, insulin resistance (IR), depression, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, obsessive...

The dream of a good night's sleep for our dermatology patients
Are you getting adequate sleep? Chances are that you are not and the repercussions could be profound. Sleep deprivation has been associated with insulin resistance, diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, anxiety and depression, and an increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Quality of life (QoL) may suffer by poor job performance, an increased risk of accidents, and family stress.1

Which cardiovascular diseases are most influenced by smoking - a cohort retrospective study
Conclusion: This study suggests that smoking may have a greater impact on the development of stroke (p = 0.012) and HBP (p = 0.025). Smoking also has an impact on the development of AMI, but on a smaller scale (p=0.042). Higher PY values are also influencing the development of CVD (p = 0.035). There was no statistically significant variation between the two groups in the development of DM2.

A Copernican Approach to Brain Advancement: The Paradigm of Allostatic Orchestration
The objective of this presentation is to explore historical, scientific, interventional, and other differences between the two paradigms, so that innovators, researchers, practitioners, policy-makers, patients, end-users, and others can gain clarity with respect to both the explicit and implicit assumptions associated with brain advancement agendas of any kind.
Over the course of three decades, a series of brain-centric, evolution-inspired insights have been articulated with increasing refinement, as principles of allostasis (Sterling and Eyer, 1988; Sterling, 2004, 2012, 2014). Allostasis recognizes that the role of the ...

The Discovery and Development of Liraglutide and Semaglutide
We describe one such approach, albumin binding, and explain how it was applied in the development of the human GLP-1 analog liraglutide once daily and, subsequently, semaglutide once weekly. The pharmacology of these two long-acting GLP-1 analogs, in terms of improving glycemic control, reducing body weight and decreasing cardiovascular (CV) risk, is also reviewed, together with some novel biology. In addition, we describe the importance of accurate target (GLP-1 receptor) tissue expression analysis.
Now an established class of agents, GLP-1-based therapies represent a significant advance in the treatment of T2D. All curr...

Role of Adiponectin in Central Nervous System Disorders.
Abstract
Adiponectin, the most abundant plasma adipokine, plays an important role in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism. Adiponectin also possesses insulin-sensitizing, anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and vasodilatory properties which may influence central nervous system (CNS) disorders. Although initially not thought to cross the blood-brain barrier, adiponectin enters the brain through peripheral circulation. In the brain, adiponectin signaling through its receptors, AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, directly influences important brain functions such as energy homeostasis, hippocampal neurogenesis, and synaptic pl...

Reduced left ventricular dimension and function following early life stress: A thrifty phenotype hypothesis engendering risk for mood and anxiety disorders
ConclusionsELS is associated with both structural and functional reductions of left ventricular measures, potentially implying a body-wide thrifty phenotype. Parallel “thrift” adaptations may occur in key brain areas following ELS and may play an unexplored role in mood and anxiety disorder susceptibility.

Will Too Much Sleep Make You Fat?
In last week's article, you learned exactly how not getting enough sleep (less than about 7 hours per night), can cause fat gain, muscle loss and an inability to control the appetite, along with increased risk for a host of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity.
But the solution is definitely not to begin sleeping as much as you possibly can. Oversleeping may seem like a good idea to fight off the fat gain that can accompany undersleeping, but it's been shown that sleeping in excess of 9 hours per night can be just as damaging to your sleep cycles and your waistline as not getting enough sleep, and in this article...
