Menopause and vascular endothelial health: Is it all about the oestrogen?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality in women, and CVD risk is accelerated during the menopause transition. This acceleration has traditionally been attributed to the hallmark decline in oestradiol with menopause. However, the menopause transition is also characterized by changes in other sex hormones that exert effects

Glucose Metabolism and Metabolic Syndrome in Horses and Donkeys: Emerging Comparative Insights

Pets
Donkeys and horses diverged approximately 4 million years ago and exhibit substantial genetic, chromosomal, and physiologic differences. Although mostly studied in horses, metabolic syndrome represents a broader metabolic dysfunction with systemic ...

Dietary Echinacea purpurea Attenuates Oxidative Stress and Alters Cytokine Gene Expression Among Heat‐Stressed Broiler Chickens at High Altitude

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
Dietary Echinacea purpurea (0.75%) alleviated oxidative stress (↓NO, ↓MDA) and selectively upregulated IL‐10 and IFN‐γ expression in heat‐stressed broilers at high altitude, shifting the cytokine balance toward an anti‐inflammatory state without affecting telomere length.

Association of sustained supraphysiologic hyperinsulinemia and inflammatory signaling within the digital lamellae in light‐breed horses

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2019
Background Hyperinsulinemia is associated with equine laminitis, and digital lamellar inflammation in equine metabolic syndrome‐associated laminitis (EMSAL) is modest when compared with sepsis‐associated laminitis.

Updates on intra‐articular corticosteroid administration in horses

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 11, Page 600-610, November 2026.
Summary Intra‐articular (IA) corticosteroid administration in equine athletes has gained increased attention recently, particularly in racing. Despite widespread corticosteroid use in equine practice for decades, there are still a lack of equine‐specific studies to address key questions related to their use.

Oocyte–cumulus cell interaction: a key factor in early embryo development

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 2265-2278, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The evaluation of oocyte competence is a fundamental step in achieving successful outcomes following assisted reproduction techniques (ART). At present, however, conventional oocyte maturation assessment is carried out by morphological observation, which is a subjective method that does not consider molecular features.

Hormone therapy (HT) in women with premature ovarian insufficiency or early menopause: Time to think of a new paradigm for healthy aging. A joint FIGO and IMS position paper

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 175, Issue 1, Page 26-47, October 2026.
Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...

Diagnosis and Management of Infectious Encephalitis in Adults: Guidelines From the European Academy of Neurology and European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Encephalitis is difficult to diagnose and manage, posing a challenge to clinicians. Since the last European guidelines were published in 2010, novel causes have emerged, diagnostic processes have evolved and treatments assessed which need to be reflected in updated guidelines.

Hyperinsulinaemia down-regulates TLR4 expression in the mammalian heart

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
Toll-like receptors (TLR) are key regulators of innate immune and inflammatory responses and their activation is linked to impaired glucose metabolism during metabolic disease.
