Dietitian‐led very low‐calorie diet for preoperative rehabilitation in patients with obesity awaiting non‐bariatric elective laparoscopic surgery: A retrospective study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Obesity increases the risks and complexity of laparoscopic surgeries. Preoperative very low‐calorie diets (VLCDs) can demonstrate significant preoperative weight loss. However, the optimal VLCD duration remains unclear. Excessive loss of muscle mass associated with VLCDs may elevate surgical and postoperative risks. This study aimed

Association of bioimpedance‐derived parameters with pulse wave velocity: Phase angle, extracellular to intracellular water ratio, and body cell mass

Physiological Reports
This study investigated the association between parameters derived from bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) and arterial stiffness, as measured using carotid–femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and brachial‐ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) pulse ...

Reduced‐Frequency GLP1 Therapy Maintains Weight, Body Composition, and Metabolic Syndrome Improvements: A Case Series

Obesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate whether reduced‐frequency dosing of GLP1 receptor agonists maintains weight loss, body composition, and metabolic syndrome improvements following successful initial treatment with standard weekly therapy. Methods This retrospective case series included 30 adults who achieved weight plateau while on weekly

Fast Quantitative Evaluation of the Amelioration Effect in MASLD During Semaglutide Treatment Using Ultrasound‐Derived Fat Fraction and Fat‐to‐Muscle Ratio

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a chronic liver disease. Research into a feasible, rapid, and effective assessment method is crucial for evaluating the therapeutic effects of semaglutide in MASLD. This prospective study utilized ultrasound‐derived fat fraction measurement and fat‐to‐muscle ratio to evaluate hepatic ...

Pathogenesis of Age‐Related Hearing Loss and Therapeutic Strategies

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Age‐related hearing loss (ARHL) is a degenerative disorder of the auditory system, characterized by bilateral symmetrical sensorineural hearing loss that occurs with aging. As a highly prevalent age‐related condition worldwide, ARHL significantly impairs both the quality of life and mental health of the elderly.

Enhanced Microbial Sensing via Resazurin Reduction Catalyzed by Graphene Oxide, A Versatile Approach for Diagnostics and Electrochemical Applications

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Resazurin is a cell viability phenoxazine dye widely employed for bacterial monitoring, as its colorimetric and fluorometric conversion reflects microbial metabolic activity. In this work, we demonstrate that graphene oxide (GO), a two‐dimensional nanomaterial with high surface reactivity, markedly accelerates the reduction of resazurin in the

Longitudinal changes in peritoneal solute transport rate and the impact of lower glucose degradation product glucose dialysates

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 471-478, June 2025.
Abstract Introduction Peritoneal solute transfer rates (PSTR) are reported to increase with time. Changes in PSTR were reviewed in long‐term peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients to determine whether lower glucose degradation products (low GDP) dialysates prevented an increase in PSTR. Methods PSTR was determined with a 4‐h peritoneal equilibrium test with
