Weekend Sleep-In Might Ruin Your Waistline And Your Health, Study Says
(CNN) — Wake up, America, and raise your hand if you try to repair your exhausted body by sleeping in on weekends. A new study says the habit may not be such a good idea for your waistline — or your health. “Weekend catch-up sleep is not protective,” said Dr. Vsevolod Polotsky, director of sleep research at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “The bottom line of this study is that even if you sleep longer on weekends, if you continue to sleep poorly, you will still eat too much, and you will still gain weight.” The common behavior of “sleeping in on the weekends doesn&...

Multimodal Optical Diagnostics of the Microhaemodynamics in Upper and Lower Limbs
Conclusion The use of optical non-invasive diagnostic methods has a great potential for the detection of concomitant microcirculation disorders in patients with rheumatic diseases and diabetes. In this review, it was shown that the use of laser Doppler flowmetry, optical tissue oximetry and fluorescence spectroscopy together or separately may have important diagnostic value for the detection of violations, assessment of their severity, as well as for the analysis of the effectiveness of the therapy. The joint application of the considered technologies with the methods of machine learning (discriminant analysis) can be use...

Geniposide Alleviates Glucocorticoid-Induced Inhibition of Osteogenic Differentiation in MC3T3-E1 Cells by ERK Pathway
Conclusion In summary, we demonstrated that geniposide alleviated GC-induced osteogenic suppression in MC3T3-E1 cells. The effects of geniposide were at least partially associated with activating ERK signaling pathway via GLP-1 receptor. Geniposide might be a potential therapeutic agent for protection against GC-induced osteoporosis. Author Contributions BX, DX, CZ, and LW participated in research design. BX, JW, YL, XW, and ZZ conducted the experiments. BX, DX, and LW contributed new reagents or analytic tools and wrote or contributed to the writing of the manuscript. BX, JW, CZ, and DX performed the data analysis. Fu...

Ability to Suppress TGF- β-Activated Myofibroblast Differentiation Distinguishes the Anti-pulmonary Fibrosis Efficacy of Two Danshen-Containing Chinese Herbal Medicine Prescriptions
Conclusion: This study suggests that a clinically efficacious cardiovascular Chinese herbal medicine (DLP) can be successfully repurposed to treat a lung disease in pulmonary fibrosis guided by TCM theory. Our comparative study between DLP and DHP demonstrated a critical requirement of suppressing both pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic pathways for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis, supporting that a multi-component prescription capable of “removing both phlegm and blood stasis” will better achieve co-protection of heart and lung in PHD. Introduction Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic ...

Reducing Tongue Fat Could Improve Sleep Apnea, Study Says
This study shows reducing excess fat in general can reduce tongue size,” said Dr. Raj Dasgupta, a sleep specialist at Keck Medicine at the University of Southern California, who was not involved in the study. In the new paper, the researchers used MRI imaging to measure the effect on upper airways of a 10% weight loss in 67 obese patients. The images showed reducing tongue fat was the primary reason overall sleep apnea scores improved by 31%. “In fact, the more tongue fat you lost, the more your apnea improved,” said Schwab, who is the co-director of the Penn Sleep Center at Penn Medicine. Costs of sleep ...

Effects of Diabetes Mellitus on Functional Outcomes and Complications After Torsional Ankle Fracture.
CONCLUSIONS: Diabetes was associated with more complications and secondary operations. However, functional outcomes including pain and dysfunction were not markedly affected by these clinical outcomes, potentially due to diminished sensory function and less baseline physical activity among diabetic patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Prognostic level III. PMID: 31922995 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The Difficulty Of Counting the COVID-19 Pandemic ’s Full Death Toll
Sara Wittner had seemingly gotten her life back under control. After a December relapse in her battle with drug addiction, the 32-year-old completed a 30-day detox program and started taking a monthly injection to block her cravings for opioids. She was engaged to be married, working for a local health advocacy group in Colorado, and counseling others about drug addiction. Then the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The virus knocked down all the supports she had carefully built around her: no more in-person Narcotics Anonymous meetings, no talks over coffee with trusted friends or her addiction recovery sponsor. As the virus stressed...

Risk Adjustment for Episode-of-Care Costs After Total Joint Arthroplasty: What is the Additional Cost of Individual Comorbidities and Demographics?
DISCUSSION: Providers participating in alternative payment models should be aware of factors (cardiac history, age, and elevated BMI) associated with increased costs. Further study is needed to determine whether risk adjustment in alternative payment models can prevent problems with access to care for these high-risk patients.

Long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonists: Findings and implications of cardiovascular outcomes trials
This article reviews CVOTs completed to date for the class of long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs; liraglutide, exenatide extended-release, albiglutide, dulaglutide, semaglutide injectable, semaglutide oral) and implications for clinical management of T2DM. All CVOTs have confirmed long-acting GLP-1RAs to be noninferior to (not worse than) placebo with regard to first occurrence of a primary outcome of three-point major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE; composite outcome of cardiovascular death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke). Further, a number of the studies demonstrated a ...

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

28675 A case of systemic amyloidosis diagnosed by dermatologic consult
A 49-year-old male with PMH of hypertension and diabetes was admitted to the neurology ICU following thrombolytic therapy for left MCA occlusive thrombus. Dermatology was consulted for desquamation of the lower lip, lateral tongue, and bruising of the eyelid and cheeks. Patient originally presented to outside hospital with bilateral lower extremity swelling and shortness of breath. BNP and troponins were elevated, and ACS protocol was initiated. He had stroke-like symptoms while at the outside facility and CT showed MCA occlusive thrombus.
