Feeding Laboratory Mice: Comparing a Standard Versus a Purified Diet – Marked Effects on Digestive Physiology

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diet composition and processing have a major impact on its utilisation by the animal, as is known from farm and pet animal species. This includes effects on energy and nutrient digestibility, the intermediary metabolism, and the intestinal microbiome, with all the resulting impacts. For laboratory animals, data is scarce on influencing factors

Periodontal Therapy–Related Changes in Clinical Parameters, Active‐Matrix Metalloproteinase‐8 and C‐Reactive Protein in Prediabetes and Diabetes

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study investigated the effect of nonsurgical periodontal therapy (NSPT) on periodontal clinical parameters, active‐matrix metalloproteinase‐8 (aMMP‐8), high sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hsCRP), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and their relationships in diabetes and prediabetes patients with periodontitis.

High Prevalence of Diabetes, Hypertension and Obesity in Guinea‐Bissau—Results From a Nationwide Study Carried Out From 2022 to 2024

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Non‐communicable diseases (NCDs) are rising rapidly in Sub‐Saharan Africa. In Guinea‐Bissau, nationwide data are scarce. We aimed to estimate the multi‐regional prevalence of type 2 diabetes (T2D), obesity, and hypertension and examine associated risk factors within this resource‐limited context.

Integrated Screening for Communicable and Non‐Communicable Diseases Multimorbidity in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries: A Scoping Review

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multimorbidity is a growing public health challenge in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), where resource‐limited and fragmented health systems impede coordinated disease detection and management. Integrated screening offers a promising strategy to improve early detection of communicable and non‐communicable diseases.

Evaluation of a continuous glucose monitoring system compared with an in-house standard laboratory assay and a handheld point-of-care glucometer in critically ill neonatal foals

, 2013
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the applicability and accuracy of a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) in critically ill foals by comparing the performance of the CGMS, a point-of-care (POC) glucometer, and an in-house standard laboratory assay (SLA ...

Fine‐Needle Aspirate Cytology of Feline Pulmonary Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis in Two Cats

Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Feline pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (FPLCH) is a rare histiocytic disorder in cats, usually diagnosed post‐mortem following natural death or euthanasia for severe respiratory distress. Antemortem diagnosis has been reported only once, achieved by cytologic examination of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid combined with immunocytochemistry,

mTOR blockade prevents progressive proteinuria but induces hyperglycaemia in obese Dahl salt‐sensitive rats before puberty

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity is significantly increased in the kidneys of Dahl salt‐sensitive (SS) rats during the development of renal injury. Therefore, in the present study we examined whether blockade of mTOR with rapamycin inhibits renal injury in Dahl salt‐sensitive leptin receptor

Therapeutic potential of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) in dysglycaemia and metabolic dysfunction: A systematic review and meta‐analysis across the diabetes spectrum

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to evaluate comprehensively the therapeutic potential of Abelmoschus esculentus (okra) supplementation across the diabetes spectrum of key metabolic risk factors. A search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library, up to 23 July 2025, to identify ...

Diet‐induced obesity enhances the glycaemic response to glucagon in male C57BL/6J mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Although the impact of obesity on the action of insulin has been studied extensively, little is known about how obesity affects the action of its counter‐regulatory hormone, glucagon. The purpose of this study was to determine whether diet‐induced obesity alters in vivo glucagon responsiveness, independent of insulin action.
