Investigation of Pancreatic-beta cells Role in the Biological Process of Ageing
CONCLUSION: Aging accelerates beta cell senescence by generating premature cell senescence, which is mostly mediated by high glucose levels. Despite higher plasma glucose levels, hepatic gluconeogenesis accelerates and adipose tissue lipolysis rises, resulting in an increase in free fatty acid levels in the blood and worsening insulin resistance throughout the body.PMID:37608675 | DOI:10.2174/1871530323666230822095932

Medication non-adherence and associated factors among older adult stroke survivors in China
Conclusion: The present study found that patient medication adherence among older adult stroke survivors in China is problematic and associated with educational levels, total prescribed drugs per day, beliefs about medication, and health literacy scores. This indicates that measures should be taken to enhance medication adherence among such higher-risk populations.

Development and Evaluation of the Algorithm CErtaInty Tool (ACE-IT) to Assess Electronic Medical Record and Claims-based Algorithms ’ Fit for Purpose for Safety Outcomes
ConclusionThe ACE-IT supports a structured, transparent, and flexible approach for decision-makers to appraise whether electronic health record or medical claims-based algorithms for safety outcomes are FFP for a specific decision context. Reliability and validity testing using a larger sample of participants in other therapeutic areas and further modifications to reduce the time needed to complete the assessment are needed to fully evaluate its utility for regulatory decision-making.

Effects of a Pharmacist-Led Educational Interventional Program on Electronic Monitoring-Assessed Adherence to Direct Oral Anticoagulants: A Randomized, Controlled Trial in Patients with Nonvalvular Atrial Fibrillation
In this study, the selection of DOACs was not randomized, and the lack of assessment of the association between adherence to DOACs and clinical outcomes was a limitation.

Appropriateness of Non-vitamin K Antagonist Oral Anticoagulants Dosing According to Different Prescription Guides Used in Belgian Ambulatory Care
ConclusionsInappropriate NOAC dosing is present in almost twenty percent of AF patients according to the SmPC and requires further education of health care professionals and frequent reassessment of NOAC dosing. However, a significant lower prevalence of underdosing was present when judged by the 2018 EHRA criteria, likely reflecting decision making in complex AF patients. Perceived frailty, weight, renal function and type of NOAC are the main determinants of deviated dosing.

Association of income and educational levels with adherence to direct oral anticoagulant therapy in patients with incident atrial fibrillation: A Finnish nationwide cohort study
In conclusion, we observed that income and ed ucational levels both have independent positive association on the implementation of DOAC therapy but no association on therapy persistence in patients with AF.
