Triacylglycerol‐Based Insulin Resistance Indices and Post‐Transplantation Diabetes Mellitus After Liver Transplantation

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Post‐transplant diabetes mellitus (PTDM) is a common complication following liver transplant (LT) and is associated with adverse outcomes. The triacylglycerol‐glucose product (TyG) and the triacylglycerol‐to‐high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio (TAG/HDL‐c) are indices that can serve as triacylglycerol‐based proxies for ...

How does leaf age affect performance? A comparative study of essential oils from young and mature Eucalyptus globulus leaves in crop protection

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Leaf age influences metabolomic profiling but not bioactivity of Eucalyptus globulus essential oils. Leaf age affects volatile levels of young and adult E. globulus oils, but not their bioactivity. Young leaf essential oil had higher contents of α‐ and β‐pinene. AEEO had higher levels of 1,8‐cineole and trans‐pinocarveol.
