Safety and Efficacy of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Epilepsy, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Managing obesity in patients with epilepsy is complicated by the weight‐gaining properties of essential antiseizure medications (ASMs) such as valproate and pregabalin. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of initiating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) in this population.

Artificial Intelligence in Systemic Sclerosis: Clinical Applications, Challenges, and Future Directions

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

α1 Antitrypsin deficiency: current best practice in testing and augmentation therapy

Therapeutic Advances in Respiratory Disease, 2014
α1 Antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) increases the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), liver disease and other conditions. Although it is not a rare disease, it is a condition rarely diagnosed because of unawareness by most healthcare ...

Facial Cosmetic Therapy Use Among Patients With Systemic Sclerosis: An Australian Cohort Study

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is associated with numerous facial manifestations for which patients may engage in cosmetic therapies. It is unclear how patients with SSc use these therapies. This study sought to characterize patient engagement and experiences with cosmetic therapies for SSc‐related and non‐SSc–related facial changes.

Adenosine augmentation therapy for epilepsy [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2010
SummaryDeficiency of the brain’s endogenous anticonvulsant adenosine is a pathologic hallmark of epilepsy. Consequently, focal adenosine augmentation therapies (AATs) constitute a rational approach for seizure suppression. Focal adenosine augmentation and resulting seizure suppression can be realized by implanting adenosine‐releasing stem cells or ...

Generative Artificial Intelligence in Clinical Practice: How Should Rheumatologists Evaluate and Monitor Emerging Tools?

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in rheumatology practice, to assist with tasks such as documentation, record summarization, and clinical decision support. Rheumatologists need a practical approach to determining what evidence and oversight each application requires.

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations

Advanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

Evaluation of the Effect of Using Adipose Stem Cells in Bone Augmentation in Patients with Jaw Bone Atrophy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]

International Journal of Scientific Research in Dental and Medical Sciences
Background and aim: Alveolar ridge bone augmentation is required for patients receiving dental implant therapy who have atrophy of the jaw bone. The latter method does not require bone harvesting, which makes it less invasive during surgery.
