Impact of Heated Versus Unheated Cooking Oil on Postprandial Vascular Function and Metabolism

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The impact of repeated heating of seed‐based culinary oils on cardiometabolic health has not been well established. Heating oils to high temperatures (> 150°C) causes lipid peroxidation, thus generating potentially harmful compounds that may impair vascular function. This randomized, single‐blind, crossover study investigated the acute effects

Utility of Pelvic Floor Therapy and Behavioral Interventions in the Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction (NLUTD) Population

Neurourology and Urodynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) describes a wide range of symptoms depending on neurologic diagnosis and the resulting bladder and sphincter dysfunction. This narrative review is designed to address the question regarding which NLUTD population benefits most from pelvic floor therapy and behavioral interventions, and ...

Association between serum bicarbonate and low mid‐upper arm circumference in patients with non‐dialysis‐dependent chronic kidney disease: A cross‐sectional study

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although previous experimental studies showed that metabolic acidosis promoted muscle catabolism and impaired protein synthesis, few epidemiological studies reported an independent association between serum bicarbonate levels and muscle atrophy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Bridging the gap in nutrition assessment: Barriers and knowledge impact of an educational session on body composition and energy metabolism

Nutrition in Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Body composition and energy metabolism assessments are central to nutrition care but remain underused. This study evaluated dietitians’ access, use, education, and beliefs toward these assessments, and the impact of an educational session.

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

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 ...

Micro‐Texturized and Ultra‐Soft Dry Electrode for Motion‐Artifact Tolerant and Long‐Term Stable Wearable Electrophysiological Monitoring

Small, EarlyView.
A highly conformal and adhesive dry electrode is developed using a micro‐textured carbon black/PDMS composite. By leveraging spontaneous surface roughness for enhanced mechanical interlocking and integrating a stretchable serpentine interconnector, the device achieves robust skin contact and low impedance.
